God's Acre, book one, The Ravens & the Rhyme
Limited edition of 300 hand-numbered books.
Illustrated by Angie Needels and Dave Senecal.
Synopsis
Where is the line between the unreal and the real? God’s Acre is a twelve-part series of artfully designed macabre modern fairytales. These stories explore the blurry line between reality and fantasy, in a manner that appeals to both adults and children ages 10 and up. God’s Acre cemetery provides the setting for the unsettling journey of the Kruk children as they search for the truth about their past. Each book features the Kruk children as well as a story-within-the-story about a deceased resident of the cemetery. The intertwining storylines are illustrated by separate artists, evoking a shift in perspective and reinforcing the intrigue as the role of God’s Acre cemetery in the town’s - and the Kruk’s - history comes to light. In this first book, young Norman Kruk, his spirit strained by his grandmother’s strict oversight, is led to God’s Acre cemetery by his imaginative and adventuresome sister Isabel. As Norman watches over Isabel, the gravedigger spins the yarn of the late Norman Criddle, whose remains reside in the cemetery. In life, Criddle was a lonely man with an intense and ultimately chilling love for ravens.

The Marionette
Short play written for Madlab Theatre's Grand Guignol in 2004. It received press merits and appeared for two consecutive years. Wigglepussy, Indiana and I wrote the music and lyrics and performed about half of the shows live, acting as a pit orchestra. Twas a blast to perform, as well as a fun and productive collaboration.
