In 2017, Greg completed work on these two long-incubating creative projects and is celebrating the double-barreled achievement with this special event at Borderlands.

One of the best things about writing Breakfast with the Alien and Other Short, Short Stories has been hearing from old friends wanting to let me know they’re checking out my book.
Like this … I received a note recently from one of my former Taekwondo students letting me know that she and her 8-month-old daughter picked up a copy of Breakfast with the Alien at Green Apple Books in San Francisco.
It’s doesn’t get any better than this.
Some readers have said they want to know what happens next to Max Marsupolis in the title story from Breakfast with the Alien and Other Short, Short Stories.
Next chapter coming soon.
It’s been five years since I started Six String Communications.
From the beginning, I looked at Six String as an editorial adventure. I didn’t know what the journey would look like or where it would lead me, but I can say now, after five years, it’s been quite a ride. I’ve encountered grammatical twists and turns, syntactical ups and downs, and a few hairpin typos along the way. Through it all I’ve learned a lot about running a small business.
To commemorate my anniversary, I wrote about five key takeaways from being at the helm of Six String Communications. Read it here!
Thanks to everyone who came out to the Potrero Stage on a weird-weather Friday night for my Book & CD Release Party. I cannot express my appreciation enough for your support. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
Huge thanks also to Richard Osborn for the photos.

Check out the August 2017 edition of the Potrero View for The Guitarist in the Doorway, a story from Breakfast with the Alien.
Local flavor, indeed!
Before dropping off a fresh batch of Breakfast with the Alien at Christopher’s Books, I stopped a young couple (and their dog) in their tracks and asked them to snap a photo.
I didn’t get their names but thanks to the young couple (and their dog). And thanks again to Christopher’s Books in San Francisco for stocking up on Breakfast with the Alien and Other Short, Short Stories.
Based on the Spotify data, this song has been played much more than any other on my Spiral Notebook Project album. Is it because it’s tagged as being “explicit” or is some other factor at work???
“I’m not the president … I’m not the queen … I’m not the sultan in the desert … it’s just little ol’ me.”
This photo was sent in by a friendly reader after his 1.5-year-old son put Breakfast with the Alien in the washing machine. Books aren’t waterproof. It’s a good life lesson.
