Other Writing

My non-book writing is kind of all over the place, but if anyone is curious, there are lots of links below.

Here are a few of my book reviews, one for Trop Mag and two for the L.A. Times. I do Times reviews every few weeks

On Bleeding Edge by Thomas Pynchon

On The Fever by Megan Abbott

On The Girls from Corona del Mar by Rufi Thorpe

Here are a couple things I did for the Daily Dish section of the L.A. Times.

Best ice cream in L.A.

Best Margherita pizza in L.A.

Here’s some humor stuff I wrote for Trop Magazine

Beach Days: A Cost Benefit Analysis (for a Trop series with Underwater NY)

A fake Yelp review of Disneyland

Really, my largest body of work is my ridiculous overblown Yelp account. I’ve written over 2,000 reviews in the last 6 years, totaling hundreds of thousands of words, all for no money and at no one’s request. Here’s the account.

Also, one time I wrote a short story about the rapture and it was published in the Los Angeles Review of Books print fiction issue. It’s called “Treasures in Heaven” and it barely exists since it isn’t on the internet. Here’s a picture of the issue, though, because why not, it’s pretty:
