Other crap I've made or worked on:

* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ph353FxEFJY This Is Indian Territory]], a mockumentary about a megalomaniacal summer camp play director. Written, shot, and edited in 48 hours. Won some awards. Then again, one of the awards was for the "choreography", so be careful how seriously you take that.

* [[http://dossier.thetartan.org/ Danny Versus the Irtist]], a short story about art and bullshitters. The story was published by Dossier, a literary journal. Available in the Spring 2011 edition.

* [[http://english.cmu.edu/oaklandreview/getacopy.html In the Name of Science]], a short story about a man who proposes that research be conducted to determine if ships float when they're put in the water upside-down. The short story is the rejection letter. It was published by The Oakland Review, a literary journal, in 2009. It's not available online, but copies can be ordered.

* [[http://english.cmu.edu/oaklandreview/getacopy.html Question for the Salamanders that Live on a Side Street Off of Fifth Avenue]], a poem about salamanders living in the middle of a city. It was published by The Oakland Review, a literary journal, in 2009. It's not available online, but copies can be ordered.

* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QYumN68leRk Moonrush]], a documentary about a moon rover and the people who love it. I had the honor of working these shoots, although I can't claim it's my project.

* [[http://www.steeltown.org/ Shaping Clay]], a documentary about [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_Strickland Bill Strickland]], a man who saves kids' souls with clay. Though I worked on it as an intern, a volunteer, and lastly a contractor for two and a half years, the film will probably never be finished. There's simply no money.

* [[http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=clunkline%20hold%20the%20elevator&source=web&cd=1&ved=0CB0QFjAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fclunkline.com%2F2009%2F09%2Fhold-the-elevator%2F&ei=JwWlTq-XO-ri0QHD6L3BCw&usg=AFQjCNH3pHfhpMf_QsF-N-QSc2Yo-hubTg&sig2=Y2z1Ev7l_7j5pOE_gSR9qg Hold the Elevator]], a play about three people trapped in an elevator with a loud Scotsman with no sense of personal space, and an irrelevant story for every occasion. Written, rehearsed, and performed in 24 hours, recorded in patented Blur-o-Vision. Won an award for best original play that year--against other plays that were written just as hastily.

* [[http://stage.gamecreation.org/garbage-scow/web/index.html Garbage Scow]], an interactive fiction game where you play a dashing space pirate, in a world where garbage is money. This was one semester's work, and then I graduated, so it's more or less stuck in beta. Won an award despite its many inadequacies.

* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yLENnVxaT2s Back in Nam Guy]], a standup routine featuring an original character. The technical quality isn't that great, the routine was for a niche audience, and I didn't expect it to be taped so I didn't even get off-book. Only reason it's here is cause a Troper noticed it and added it, and I feel like it's in the encyclopedic spirit of the Wiki to include even my OldShame.

* [[http://twitter.com/#!/StoryTom My Twitter account]]. Warning: it is a Twitter account, and therefore utterly useless.

* [[http://www.clunkline.com Clunkline]], a comedy website I used to write for, that used to have content and a rather large writing staff, but eventually devolved into poop jokes as people lost interest. Not exactly family-friendly stuff.

I don't have a terribly high opinion of some of the things I've produced in the past. In EchoChamber, Tom is portrayed as a depressingly mediocre writer, because [[AuthorAppeal being mediocre is one of the things I fear the most]].

I'm the guy who's a jerk on ''WebOriginal/EchoChamber''. And I’ve never had more fun in my life. ''EchoChamber'' is my love letter to this website.

If you want to help with ''WebOriginal/EchoChamber'', I can’t make any promises, but I’m the person to PM.

I'm also open to constructive criticism. If there's something Tropers at large don't like about ''EchoChamber'', there's no reason it has to stay that way. My caveats here are:
