I’m building a house,

Alex Shapiro likes to stay up late. Now that all of the people formally known as his friends have significant others, or get groggy from their meds and pass out before midnight, or have just adopted normal sleep patterns, he has resorted to doing a lot more writing. Which is better for his constitution than hanging out with those hosers anyway. His first novel, Bleached Sheep: The Yearling, should be complete any day.
