when i first read your books i confused you with Adam Todd Brown. So when ever i recommended your books i said you used to be addicted to cough syrup as selling point with how crazy they are. do you want me continue to lie or not? i actually got a couple people to read it because of that, just some people in IA, OK, CA, IL might think your ideas came from cough syrup

The truth is almost weirder - I've never even drank alcohol in my life. No weed, no hallucinogens. Those books were fueled by lots of cups of coffee, that's it.

I just finished "Futuristic Violence and Fancy Suits", and I was wondering if at some point in the outline/draft process, Andre and Molech were supposed to be related in some way? I had that idea stuck in my head because both of them use the word "daddy" to describe fathers (Andre for Zoey's, Molech for his). Was their use of "daddy" an intentional red herring or just coincidence? The book was great, by the way.

In my humble opinion, Spiders is your best written novel. I believe that partially because I view the titular Spiders as a metaphor for addiction. That makes them a lot more terrifying for me. Is this just my interpretation, or was that something you intended when writing the novel?
