About N.L.

I'm a journalist, editor of a news site. My book "Random Obsessions: Trivia You Need To Know" is coming out in August. It's bizarro and talks hidden history, mysterious places, strange ailments and more.

I'm a contributing writer Bakotopia and TheNervousBreakdown.com. My work has appeared on the homepage of CNN.com and other news sites all over America. You can purchase Lords: Part One, which describes the infamous Lords of Bakersfield. I welcome news tips to my Myspace. Oh, I also write a comedy cell phone novel. "Small Places" has been featured in the Christian Science Monitor, GPod Radio, talked about on NPR and the North Bay Bohemian.
