A Different Kind of Writer: My Tribute to “The American Dream” Dusty Rhodes

June 11, 2015 By: Jason Bougger

I’ve never been ashamed to admit that I’m a wrestling fan. It’s been a part of my life for as long as I can remember, and even though I don’t pay so much attention to the current product, I’ll defend it as one of the purest forms of entertainment ever created. Today the world of […]

5 Things I Gained From Attending O Comic Con

I think we can all agree on one thing: Nothing beats a good science fiction convention. This weekend, the first annual O Comic Con took place in the Omaha metro area. I turned over the piggy bank, loaded up the kids in the Buick and hit the Interstate. We had a killer time. I went […]

Theme of Absence, year one

May 27, 2015 By: Jason Bougger

Visit Thme of Absence, an online magazie of science fiction, fantasy, and horror.

It’s nearly a year since I printed the first story on my ezine, Theme of Absence. It’s been a wonderful experience and a great year so far. I set out with three objectives when I started the site, and either met or surpassed all three. The first was to become a better writer. I wanted […]

What I Fear Most About My Novel

I had a great time at the Nebraska Writers Guild Spring Writers’ Conference.

Quick update on stuff

March 31, 2015 By: Jason Bougger

Hey, I just wanted to chime in real quick to say thanks for all the encouraging and congratulatory email and facebook messages I received since announcing the upcoming novel. It really means a lot to me. So my next step is to approve the suggestions I got back from the editor and rewrite the parts […]

Holy Fudgesicles

March 30, 2015 By: Jason Bougger

5/1/15 UPDATE: The book is available now. Click here for ordering information. Regular readers of this blog already know that my wife and I were blessed with the birth of our third child this month. But there is another awesome piece of news that I haven’t yet publicly shared. While out on paternity leave, I […]

A quick look at my blogging history and the evolution of my ezine

March 17, 2015 By: Jason Bougger

It’s already been nine months since I launched my online magazine, Theme of Absence. To be honest, I started the site almost on a whim. I had owned the domain name for over a decade, as I first bought it to use for a Pink Floyd fan site. (Note: This was in 1996, so you […]
