I am working less than 40 hours a week... I am basically making up things
to do, busy work.

Tony

I am a freelance technical writer and author of fiction, biographical
non-fiction, first-person journalism and essays. My work can be found on
the BrooWaha.com online community newspaper
<http://www.broowaha.com/search-author/tony-g-rocco> under my own name and
my pen name, cityfeller.

*No Regrets: Memoirs of a Punk*, my first ebook, is available from
Smashwords Publishing. It recounts my early days on the San Francisco punk
scene, and tells the tale of a young Catholic boy who escapes his
conservative Texas upbringing to live the life of a free-spirited punk
rocker in the San Francisco of the 1970's. Download it at:
https://www.smashwords.com/books/view/315495.

My first novel, *On the Steps of St. Dymphna*, is due out in the Spring of
2019.
