Mike Malloy, Writer
A place for humor, fake news, and a book you definitely should buy
Joke of the Day
Your fortune cookie reads: "You will be rewarded for being bold and adventurous". Ironically, you had your friend open it and asked them not to tell you if it was bad news.
Mission Statement
This is a home for my creative writing, which takes several forms. There's a lot going on, but you are clearly an advanced reader who can handle it.
First, my book is about why people listen to heavy metal. Learn more about it, and read other metal-related content, in "My Book". Once it is published, buying it will make you a better person.
Second, exclusive content from the MMW News Network featuring all the news that's only fit to print here. All stories filed under "Fake News".
Third, short fiction pieces that are not fake news are found in "Humor".
Click often. Tell your friends.
