I firmly believe that if you snooze, you lose. Here are a few of my attempts to always be creating, meeting, working, doing, something: I own and operate Ballyhoo Promotions, an PR and production company in New York City. Are you a comedian or actor in NYC? Do you need help producing a show or special event? Then you're in luck, because at Ballyhoo Promotions, we've got hype made to order™. Major clients include the comedy nightclub Comix, the performance space I created called Ochi's Lounge, Christian Finnegan (VH1's Best Week Ever, Chappelle's Show), God's Pottery, Jest Magazine, Chamerblain Bros., Anthony DeVito (writer for US magazine's Fashion Police), novelist Edith Layton and the reality TV show Meow Mix House. My Jailed Deaf Dad has written me lots of letters over the years even before he got locked up for attempted murder. In February 2006, I started Love, Daddy to document this correspondence, our relationship pre- and post-prison and other stories of drugs, sex and violence. Feel good humor, I assure you. Book me for a reading! In June 2006, FreshYarn.com published an essay I wrote about growing up in a tin shed, attempted murders by my jailed deaf dad and other shenanigans. Read it here. I am the owner of Tex in the City. We host networking events for Texans living in NYC. On occasion we produce big events like a book party for Governor Ann Richards, a free trip for 60 to Urinetown the Musical with pre-show party and exclusive post-show Q& A with the cast and other amazing free shows and soirees. I began "blogging" before blogs were invented. It has undergone several transformations, but its current title is "Daily Dose". On a near daily basis, I post my daily missives, upcoming events in NYC and poor attempts at witticism and humor.
