Interactive Fiction

I’m author of several works of interactive fiction (aka “text adventures”) that are playable on all modern (or not-so-modern) computer systems. “Lost New York” and two of the Frenetic Five trilogy were multiple XYZZY Award nominees.

You can read more about the games, and download them as well, via Wurb.com.

Music

I can code HTML and CSS and I can explain the intricacies of tax-exempt bond financing, but even I can’t figure out how to set up a decent-looking MySpace page. Instead, here are some nice, simple direct links to samples of my sparse but growing musical output: Four live tracks plus one studio recording (if by “studio” you mean “studio apartment”). Check the blog for upcoming performance dates and other news.
