Zombie Spaghetti
Opened in September, 2025, Zombie Spaghetti sells my paintings, digital collages, jewelry, and Barbie Art.
My art focuses on abstract expressionism, surrealism, Dada, with hints of postmodernism, and embracing the vast archive of public domain images. It also embraces pop culture, toys, wire jewelry, and fake succulents.
I've had a booth at the Las Vegas First Friday Art Festival several times throughout the fall of 2025 to the spring of 2026.
I've also opened an online store at zombiespaghetti.art.
Publications
My publications range from academic papers on Shakespeare to erotic novels to literary theory. A list of my academic work is available in my curriculum vitae. But this is my favorite:
Nontraditional Plot Structures for Neurodiverse Writers: In 2025, I finally figured out a way to talk about nontraditional fiction. Using a rejected dissertation proposal, I developed a system of classification for several different structures, assembling straightforward categories and explanations. I assembled the book page by page and designed all of the graphics. I released it as a free ebook. I've begun the second edition.
