No Sleep Till Orbit City

Upholding antiquated, arbitrary tradition that serves no purpose is a waste of time, money, and resources. What qualifies as “serving a purpose” can be viewed as relative, I understand, but consider if the only value you’re creating is satisfying your need to prevent change for the better because you fear it. Redefining what is important and useful is the only path to advancement. Digging in your heels for the simple fact of, This is the way we’ve always done it, is regressive and damaging. People who do these things are the reason we aren’t living in Orbit City. Jane! Get me off this crazy thing called… stupidity.

Thought & Other Absurdities in paperback is our debut publication and we greatly appreciate your support in realizing the dream of our new independent publishing company.

Thought & Other Absurdities is a collection of modern witticisms, thought provocations, & other absurdities from the mind of Joseph D. Newcomer, author of Diminishing Return, El Camino Blue, and the soon-to-be-released through Dead Star Press, SciFi mind-fuck novel, Darkest Day.

Originally posted on the Thought & Other Absurdities blog at JosephDNewcomer.com, these brief essays are rife with the social commentary and compassion-invoking prose you have come to expect from Newcomer, but with a more direct and pointed purpose than his novels. This collection is designed to offer the reader daily vignettes of societal considerations to engage the mind well beyond the few moments it takes to read each entry. It is simultaneously thought-altering and painfully relatable.
