"Girlfriend from Another Planet," a short story, is featured in the hardcover fiction anthology, The Future of Misbehavior: 2033, Chronicle Books, featuring Jay McInerney, Rick Moody, et al. "That the book proves more cautionary than erotic may disappoint some readers, but its look at modern excesses and insecurities proves entertaining, thought-provoking and darkly funny."—Publisher's Weekly
He is also the author of the short-lived The Banana Shake a Flog on which Tom interviewed famous persons and/or entities, Dick Cheney, the Polar Iced Caps, God, among others.
