I was texting with a friend of mine yesterday about the insanity of our information pipeline. She was trying to remember the psychological term for some thing or another. I honestly can’t remember exactly what we were talking about, but it was akin to Survivor’s...

The following is a chapter from Until All the Dragons Are Dead, a collection of stories from my travels. Waiting for the Sun I have seen more of the Middle East than I ever expected a kid from a small town in Southeast Texas would see. I won’t pretend that my time...
