Places I regularly visit on the webernet. Sites of authors, musicians, webcomics, and I even threw a blog in there to be trendy.


WRITERS & WRITING & RIGHTEOUSNESS

HARUKI MURAKAMI OFFICIAL SITE
My favorite authror. Read everyhting he's written. Read it again. Discuss.

MATT FRACTION
Besides having the coolest name ever, Fraction is the writer for the comic book Casanova. The first issue made me cackle out loud in sadistic delight. Support him, so that he writes more.

JONATHAN LETHEM
Lethem is one of my favorite authors, originally a cult science fiction writer, now he's a New York Times best seller. Good luck figuring out his confusing-ass website.

HATRACK RIVER
The official website of Orson Scott Card, author of Ender's Game and a number of other classic scifi books.

OPIUM MAGAZINE
This is the first place I was published, and it's one of the best online & print journals for literature that doesn't take itself too seriously.

RIVET MAGAZINE
The magazine for which I blog and sometimes write. Based out of Seattle, a place I've never been.


TELEVISION & FILM

CARTOON NETWORK
Still the best station on the planet. Lately I've taken to watching Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends.

ADULT SWIM
Working t he day shift has eaten into my Adult Swim viewing time, but now their website has much content online. Hooray for the internet.

Sci Fi
Yes, the original movies suck, but the original shows are super fun, and in the case of the new Battlestar Galactica, incredibly powerful and beautiful.


MUSIC & MUSICIANS & FUNNY NOISES

KURT ROSENWINKEL OFFICIAL SITE
The second coming of Christ, with a guitar.

JOHN ELLIS
My old saxophone teacher, and a world-renowned performer. Buy his albums.

AFROSKULL
Q: What the hell is an Afroskull?
A: It's the long lost soundtrack to a 70's horror porno flick performed by a rock band.
Q: What?
A: You heard me.


COMICS & WEBCOMIC & VIRTUAL HILARITY

A SOFTER WORLD
Photo-based web comic of startling hilarity and gut-punching bluntness. Possibly my favorite thing on the web.

TOOTHPASTE FOR DINNER
The Farside meets Dilbert meets Calvin and Hobbes, drawn by a 5-year-old. In other words, perfection.

xkcd
To use their own description, A webcomic of romance,sarcasm, math, and language.

WHITE NINJA COMICS
I don't know how to describe this, but it makes me laugh.

EXPLODINGDOG
If I ever got a book published, I'd want an explodingdog picture for the cover. By turns amusing and profound.
