About Stephen:
I don't know: I grew up in Texas, lived there for three and a half decades or so. Have never seen a whale, either from a distance or up close. I write more than's healthy, maybe. Have somehow made it across thirty-six years already. Not very good at video games, but fair at basketball. I would like to use the word 'pleniform' someday, and not in reference to an intake manifold. Sometimes I wish I were born five hundred years ago, so I could see things before fences and roads, but then, other times, I'll pull into a convenience store, push a button for 44 ounces of fizzing dr pepper, and man, I'm glad to be here, now. I've jumped off more tall things than I probably ever should have. I spend a lot of time being scared of things, and have what feels like the wrong idea that, if I can watch and read enough horror, and write enough of the bad stuff down, that it won't get to me anymore. I once ran a long way in front of a lot of dogs in the nighttime, and finally had to spend the night on top of the first roof I got to. I've had snake venom in me, for whatever that's worth. Have had a spider lay an egg in me too, when I fell asleep in the pen with my steer. Have stood in a melting field of snow and felt the ground shake under me and known that this is it, the world's ending, only to have a wall of horses come pounding up over the rise in their winter coats, their eyes wild, tails matted with slush. Have seen bad things happen too. Love to read theoretical physics, but can't quite follow the math. Dream that someday, in the Star Trek future I'm holding my breath for, some jumpsuited guy or girl might carry one of my books onto a grimy interstellar ship, and then leave it in some backwater port an impossible number of light years away, for another traveler to find, and maybe read, nod to him or herself that yeah, that's it all right.

Anyway, the facts, the stuff maybe not already bullet-pointed in these boxes all around here: I write fiction. Seven books published so far:

  • The Fast Red Road--A Plainsong
  • All the Beautiful Sinners
  • The Bird is Gone: a .."text-decoration:strikethrough;">Manifesto
  • Bleed Into Me: A Book of Stories
  • Demon Theory
  • Ledfeather
  • The Long Trial of Nolan Dugatti
More info &etc at demontheory.net, I suppose. And, I'll see if I can't get pics of the covers up here somehow:



Who I'd like to meet:


Fiction Sample
HANSOM IS
I was the first one to start painting eyes on the back of my horse's blinders. Soon enough Tedlow's gelding was wearing sunglasses, though, then Martinov's dun was sporting a stovepipe hat, and when Dominguez ordered that custom Spanish bit with the hole bored into it for a cigar (off-center, of course), I just held my hands up and turned around in my seat. On the back of my newly-shaved head, though, was a greasepaint smile, a pair of eyes, a nose that had been hard to get right in my series of five a.m. mirrors, but worth it, too. I tell my passengers that I'm a ventriloquist, talking without my lips, see, then stare lidlessly right at them for the rest of the ride, daring them to push me farther. By the end of the day, Martinov has two dummy arms spidering out of his side, holding the reins for him while he points to landmarks, and Tedlow's killed himself, his horse running wide-nostrilled through the streets, and then the magnesium horse shoes Domingez ordered finally come special delivery, and her Wally's hooves spark with each step like he's walking on fire, like we all are, and I feel the back of my scalp contract in a smile, because we have the whole world before us, and then when a pair of hands cup over my eyes it just feels so right that I let the reins go slack and follow my horse into the night, both of us blind with wonder.

Well, we finally put up the new video with SNL actor Bill Chott and "Honkey". And we have absolutely no explaination for our actions!! WARNING: If you are squeamish, DO NOT watch this video.  But if you appreciate goofy and gross humor, have a blast. (Sick people are HI-LARIOUS!) 
We have no freakin' idea what made us do this.  But feel free to comment anyway.

May the light of your soul guide you.
by John O'Donohue

May the light of your soul guide you.
May the light of your soul bless the work
You do with the secret love and warmth of your heart.
May you see in what you do the beauty of your own soul.
May the sacredness of your work bring healing, light and renewal to those
Who work with you and to those who see and receive your work.
May your work never weary you.
May it release within you wellsprings of refreshment, inspiration and excitement.
May you be present in what you do.
May you never become lost in the bland absences.
May the day never burden you.
May dawn find you awake and alert, approaching your new day with dreams,
Possibilities and promises.
May evening find you gracious and fulfilled.
May you go into the night blessed, sheltered and protected.
May your soul calm, console and renew you
