One Damn Thing After Another builds on the themes of word contagion and weaponized memes that the author explored in his previous book, 2009’s How America Died. Many of the characters in these stories have likewise been sickened by language: they exchange psychotic emails, adopt covert online personas, write fictitious book reviews and preach the authoritarian philosophies of Ayn Rand, oblivious to the harm they might be doing to themselves or others.

A scholar and a dropout clash in “The Condition.” Fact and fiction blur in “Drunken Fantasies, Vol. 1” as the author takes readers on a painfully funny tour through the insanity of his own booze-fueled grandiosity. For those who remain undeterred by these warnings, the author has also included a supplement that shows readers “How To Be An Underground Lit Legend” by employing many of the same tactics.
Tim Hall has been dancing to the DIY beat since the 2004 release of his first novel, Half Empty, and he’s got a scrapbook full of nice memories to show for it. He writes the popular Uplift The Positivicals column for Act-i-vate.com. A native of New York City, he now lives in a small town in northeastern Illinois with his wife and son, simply because he couldn’t quite jump far enough to reach California. One Damn Thing After Another is his fifth book.
