There were over 10,000 vistors as of December 2011.  My website was launched around 2000.  I had to reset the counter to zero since the counter only goes to 9,999.

  My debut novel PROSPECT OF MY ARRIVAL has been a long time coming.  This is an adventurous, literary novel with a speculative spin.   It's one part satire of the modern world, one part nightmare, one part love letter.  To read the opening chapters, go to amazon.com.

A screenwriter in LA is currently finalizing the adaptation of the book.  I'd love for PROSPECT to be the first literary self-published Kindle novel to sell one million copies.   
Welcome to
Dwightland.

FOR PROSPECT BELOW!
You can help my debut novel rise on the Amazon charts by telling your friends about the book, giving them as gifts and such, recommending my book to your book club.  I'd love for my book to break into the Top 100 in 2012.  I am at work on my second novel THE HOPE STORE.
Please support living creative artists while they are alive.

There is a tradition in America of supporting artists after they pass away.  It happens with painters (think of Keith Haring), singers (think of Amy Winehouse), etc.  But artists don't need money when they're dead & gone.  Heck, they need money now while they are breathing on this earth so they can pay rent & drink coffee & create more art.  So if you like the kind of novels and poems I write, the quirky vision of life reflected in my work -- please consider a donation to help support me as an artist.  No amount is too small (or too large!).  Thanks very much.

Also recently 2,024 people got a chance to download the kindle of my book PROSPECT OF MY ARRIVAL for free.  If you read the book and enjoy it, feel free to come back here and donate whatever you think it is worth.  As grants for artists have dried up, and artistic patrons have all but disappeared -- writers must be creative!  Thanks for your consideration and for supporting my writing.
