Thanks Colorado Book Awards for nominating DENVER NOIR for the Best Anthology Award! I had a blast creating a new character, down-on-his-luck Indigenous lawyer Griff Germaine, for my short story "Colfax and Havana." (And keep an eye out for a new Griff story soon . . .)

One of the greatest. "Marquee Moon" still one of the best rock albums ever. Those chords meant so much to a lonely kid in Denver, Colorado. RIP Tom Verlaine. Tom Verlaine, Influential Guitarist and Songwriter, Dies at 73

Tom Verlaine, Influential Guitarist and Songwriter, Dies at 73

He first attracted attention with the band Television, a fixture of the New York punk rock scene. But his music wasn’t so easily categorized.
