About me:

I write interactive fiction which takes fiction books and e-books to the next level thanks to the power of computers. I travel all over the world and explore what I write about so I can deliver a whole new dimension of realism to my interactive fiction books.

If you're curious just check out the Malinche website and experience interactive fiction for yourself -- Malinche Interactive Fiction Books

It's always my goal to leave readers astonished after finishing any of my titles.

Other than writing text adventure games I enjoy gambling, liquor, women, cigars, fine cars, world travel and good books.

Who I'd like to meet:

Stephen King, Orson Scott Card, Harrison Ford, Ozzy Osbourne, Neil Peart, Geddy Lee, Alex Lifeson, Rush Limbaugh, the whole MST3K crew, and Gene Simmons.

    Recently I have been looking at the world of the horror/genre and are little dot in it. It's been a hard year for most of us, and I figured now is the time to let the world know that we are still here. So here is what I am proposing. I want to make a super video! If you love genre films, filmmaking, and or just the Darkstone peeps, it is time to go crazy. We all wear our basic daily armour for our lives. And we escape to a film and love the moments and feeling it gives us. So now we should celebrate it and take it off! Let the daily armour fall and show the real you. The song attached is going to be the music for a very epic vid! Grab a camera and shoot yourself and your friends dancing, going crazy, something with the horror/genre films, and lip singing the back up vocals to this song. It can be simple in your room rockin out, or throw anything together that your imagination comes up with. Every video sent in, makes it into the main video. You show me what you got, your voice will be heard. Just send your vid into December 5th. We want the video up by the end of that week. People it is time to go crazy. It is time to do whatever hits your mind. It's time to show who the true Darkstone Legion is. I want something from everyone. Send me any questions you may have to this email. I will also send a dvd to you of the final cut if you participate. Just send $3.00 with your tape and I will mail you the final dvd right away. I think this could be really really nifty. Yes I said nifty. It's not a nerdy word. Its a cool word. Look it up. The definition says It's cool fool! In any case, let's do this! Scream to the world that we are here to stay and Darkstone though takes a few hits will always be the last one standing! If you are reading this and want to get involved email dflicks@gmail.com and we will send you the song and details...
