As illuminating as it is disturbing, Crazy Razor demonstrates with stark clarity that the real villain in war…is war itself.

Damn. My head hurt. This can't happen again. Of course, I'd said the same thing the two other times someone had used my dome for a kettledrum. But this time I'd had it.

" Tales from the Dew Drop Inne reads like a darkly humorous sitcom. The tone is both heartfelt and deliciously irreverent, showing that one does not need to hate humanity to appreciate the humor of life. Here are tales of drifters, alcoholics, religious renegades, veterans, and drag queens set in pub that is at once a confessional, a circus, and a psychiatric hospital."

Welcome back fans. Whether you have read my Autobiography and or my collection of poems the real meat and potatoes of what makes me tick is inside this collection of Erotica. It is what got me to the dance so to speak. While my autobiography has been an incredible success it pales in comparison to the success that is my pen name unsettlednomad.

They are short and humorous but they will manage to get you to the point where you need to go depending on your kink. You may recall that before I started writing I used to own a fully equipped and operational dungeon and that my expertise is pain and complete submission. So with that in mind relax and pour yourself a nice glass of wine and let yourself go. Submit to me for I am the Alpha and the Omega and I am the reason that you are here.
