CHROME OXIDE: WRITER

Under the pen name of Chrome Oxide I write humorous science fiction and fantasy. However, I've been accused of writing murder mysteries since I murder the English language and it's a mystery how I get published.

When people ask why I write humorous science fiction and fantasy, I explain that my reality check bounced.

What possible excuse could a beginning author give for doing an unanounced book signing at a bar where bands are playing and there is an admission charge?

The short answer is none. :-)

The long answer is:

I've spent a lot of time over the last fifteen years recording surf instrumental bands. (You can read about it here.) Recently I've been writing and editing my stories at shows. Normally when I'm recording the bands, I'm also selling their merchandise. Since I'd already planned on attending, recording and selling band merchandise, I figured it wouldn't take much extra effort to setup a display for my first published story Cop For A Day,
in the L. Ron Hubbard Presents, Writers of the Future Volume 29, XXIX anthology.

I thought about it and decided I had nothing to lose. Even if I don't sell any books (and lets face it, most people going to live shows aren't planning on buying books), this is a way to let everyone know that when they see me hunched over and scribbling, that I am serious about writng and have progressed from a hopeful beginner to a starting professional writer.
