Dawn

Dawn is the story of the man as he crawls through his, quote, life, close quote, through what he sees as an ever ugly world, encountering characters along the way, all of whom he very much wishes he had never encountered at all...except for one. The book begins with the man awaking on a beach, unsure of where he is. The man eventually finds his way back home, only to find he in no way knows the people inside and recognizes none of the belongings within it. At some point, he encounters a woman who is on a beach that is atop a cliff, the man having no memory of how he got there. But, who is she? Who is he? Through a wasteland, the man, he crawls, from nowhere to nowhere, sardonic commentary of the dark comedy of a broken record. Existence? Persistence? And on, he crawls, but remembers the one beauty as he does. Crawling and crawling, but leading to what...Where is it all going?

I have written nineteen books, six under the name, Xavier Cockroachal Damon, six under the name, Aaron Aaronson, six under the name, Mark Comstock, and one book under the name, Samuel Locke. The books consist of novels, novellas, and collections of stories, and all have a lot of dark humor, often very dark. The books could be considered bizarre, outrageous, absurd and audacious. They are uncompromising, unconventional, irreverent and, most definitely, off the beaten path. Also, contrary to some reports, Xavier Cockroachal Damon is not the absolute worst and dumbest pen name of all time.
