Embedding the Shovel

Welcome to Fallen Off the Shelf.

As you've probably noticed, there's not a lot of content to explore as of now. Let's discuss what exactly is going to be discussed on this page: comic books, writing, vinyl records (or music in general), True Crime, movies, just to name a few. I'm hoping to touch on several topics, although I'm sure some will overtake others. Suggestions are welcome.

Now, a little about me. I'm a writer, currently focusing on short stories, although I'm trying to finish a novel that I'm 40K words in. I continue to write comic book scripts, in an attempt to get my foot in the door. As of now my hope is to replicate the success of the fantastic writer Scott Snyder, whose short story collection seems to have been his golden ticket into the comics world. I'm sure plenty of you are in the same boat, so feel free to share your own thoughts and experiences.

As I mentioned, I collect vinyl, most of my finds coming from the dusty flea markets of the Midwest. Any reccomendations concerning records or machines are encouraged. For a taste of my musical, um, taste, here's a mix of mine, found at the wonderful 8tracks website.

Hope you all enjoy what's to come.
