We have a bear for a neighbor. Well, actually four bears, a sow and three cubs. Their den is on our property. Well, actually their property from the perspective of a bear. And I certainly wouldn't argue with them even if I disagreed, which I don't. I'm beginning to believe less and less in the concept of ownership, especially concerning land, and concerning bears. In the natural world, occupation is ownership and I think I prefer that concept. It … [Read more...]

If you are thinking about making money from writing, there is no comparison between writing a book and a screenplay. Writing a low-budget … [Read more...]
Author Ron Chepesiuk on America’s Black Serial Killers
Popular mythology perpetuates the belief that serial killers are predominantly white. This stereotype is reinforced by media portrayals that primarily focus on white serial killers, further strengthening the myth.

A Bad-ass at Burrofest: Jim Duke’s Tale of Ass-envy, Liability, and Unintended Infamy
Is it possible to get kicked out of a Burrofest for being a jackass? I think that's what happened to me last weekend in Mancos. I'm really not sure why I got kicked out, but I prefer to think that it was because I was being a badass of some sort. I was told I had to leave for liability reasons. It's a little hard to believe that at seventy years old and while peacefully sitting on my ass, I was still the greatest liability in town. Pretty good … [Read more...]
Author Ron Chepesiuk Asks: Was the police investigation of Henry Wallace racist?
One of the big questions of the Wallace investigation was why did it take so long to catch Henry Wallace? After all, he knew all the victims, and he committed the murders in a very small area of Charlotte.

Author Lawrence Davis Says, “Sons Make Madmen Out of Fathers”
There I was, staring at a version of my book-perfectly content with it-with a deadline I might actually hit for once and this fool-hearty belief that I might actually be on top of my shit.
