FAQ

WHAT’S GOING ON HERE?

I’m an American writer. And day job worker. And beer drinker. And Presbyterian, living in Oregon’s wine country. I write to a few thousand immortal folks every week via email only.

If you like Mamet, Rollins, Hammett or Bukowski, this’ll probably resonate in some way.

If you don’t, there’s always a warm place for you over at MetaFilter.

Or your english professor’s hanky.

Good luck.

HOW DO I CONTACT ROBERT BRUCE?

IS ROBERT BRUCE YOUR REAL NAME?

Yes.

And no, I am not the “Astral Projection” Robert Bruce (Google it if you care)…

AREN’T LITERARY READINGS BORING, UNWATCHABLE, PSEUDO-INTELLECTUAL CON GAMES?

Yes.

But for $500 + expenses, I’ll fly in and give you one that plainly isn’t.

WHY DON’T YOU HAVE A BLOG, COMMENTS, FORUM OR FACEBOOK CONNECT ON THIS ON THIS SITE? EMAIL ONLY?! ARE YOU SOME KIND OF ARROGANT PRICK?

Perhaps, but not in this case.

Like you, I work two jobs, have a dog, four cats, thirty chickens and watch a lot of television. I need the few moments left at the end of the day to write these little stories, cut my toenails, drink a beer and get to the dentist. Email just makes sense to me somehow, I like the intimacy of it, and the commitment, on your part and mine.
