| Introduction | When I realized I was probably a better writer than I was a cartoonist, I abandoned the dream of being a syndicated comic strip artist. Ten years or so later, I finally had an idea good enough to turn into a novel. In my spare time, I "maintain" a pair of blogs devoted to these respective hobbies. |
| Favorite movies | Raising Arizona, Waiting for Guffman, The Incredibles, City Lights, Broadcast News, My Fair Lady, The North Avenue Irregulars and virtually any MGM musical. |
| Favorite music | Jimmy Buffett, Sinatra, Beatles, Elvis, The Bad Examples, Stan Getz, Dave Brubeck, Oscar Peterson, Spanic Boys, Iguanas, rockabilly, swing and assorted kitschy lounge and tropicalia. |
| Favorite books | Carl Hiaasen, James Lee Burke, most Stephen King, Sinclair Lewis, A Confederacy of Dunces |
