Fiction. Set in the dreamscape of the Kaats Kills, THE RUNAWAY NOTE is the fragmented story of two star-crossed lovers as they steal the devil's van, resurrect a dead boy, and re-experience their past lives. A pastiche of surreal romance, epistolary, and tall tale, the book takes the reader on an alternatingly whimsical and gruesome tour of youth, home, violence, time, and death. At once funny and menacing, inventive and human, THE RUNAWAY NOTE manages to find tenderness in the face of the inevitable end."Tyrone Jaeger's THE RUNAWAY NOTE is a violent and mystical record of a recurring nightmare brought on by reading Flannery O'Connor and Frank Stanford. Coyotes are running across the dam. The moon is murderous. The difference between the living and the dead is not the capacity for love. And I now know this is what happens when you die: you wake up, and you ask for forgiveness."—Zachary Schomburg

Poetry. If death, sex, and God form the currents of KERPLUNK THE MOON, the river in which these flow is the dream. Oscillating from lunacy to sanity and back again, the themes of these poems range from a killer twister ransacking a small town, to a plunge into a hot and salty ocean, to an inevitable encounter with nothingness. A certain madness and a certain insolvency orbit the kernel of this debut collection.

Literary Nonfiction. A study of the specter of time and the mercurial re- embodiment of being, BLASTED TOWER is an autobiographical zap- zap flash-synap of episodic reflections on craft and psyche as the Meatwheel grinds ephemeral gauze and twigs to dust.
