"The Adventures of Helicopter Pee Man" out now!
I've got a new story up at I+Everything, it's one of my favorite so far. This one is being expanded into a full novel which I'm currently working on. I'd really love if you checked it out! Here is a little excerpt:
“Cardboard. Cardboard. Let’s find some cardboard.”
About thirty steps from his destination, in front of the convenience store, he noticed two figures looking towards him. A white light flashed in his eyes.
“Aliens? What are the chances?”.
He was so sleep deprived that the thought evoked neither fear nor excitement in him.
“Police…”
As the reality of the situation dawned upon him he found himself fantasizing that the light was coming from aliens, ready to take him away. His sleep deprived mind played with the idea while his body instinctively held his hands up.
The cops snickered at him, they’re faces still blurry as his eyes adjusted to the light and his mind continued to play with thoughts of extraterrestrials.
“We don’t have time to arrest you, move along buddy.” The cops made their way into the store.
He rushed around back to look for a new paper thin mattress, still fantasizing about the prospects of making contact with a visitor species who had their heads on straight, the idea suddenly a lot more exciting as the smells of the alleyway introduced themselves. He found a single dumpster, with no sign of a place for recyclables.
“Only one place to look...."
