Ah, the wild days of youth, back when MojoFiction was a teenager and found himself presented with the weekend choice of either being social and meeting girls or hanging out with our equally girlfriend-less male friends and watching MST3K (If you don't know what that is, too bad, we're not explaining it). Looking back, MST3K seemed to win out... Continue Reading →
A LITTLE DISTRACTION FOR YOUR BUSY WORK DAY!
And now, a mindless waste of time. Yesterday, when we were supposed to be working (but we were goofing off instead), the staff here at MojoFiction ran across some interesting quotes across the webiverse and we thought we would throw them out there in the form of a quiz, to see if you pay attention to...

WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE’S STAR WARS (A Book Review)
VERILY, A NEW HOPE This is a real book. Seriously. We here at MojoFiction couldn’t believe it either. Shakespeare AND Star Wars together? Break out the paper bags because we’re hyperventilating from too much excitement due to overexposure to a geek fantasy unlike any other. Sci-fi nuts, historians, and your college English professor together in... Continue Reading →
DISC GOLF HERO
We here at MojoFiction decided it was high time we started playing disc golf. We decided it after our brother-in-law wouldn’t quit talking about it and then his wife wouldn’t stop talking about it and since, if you’ve followed the lineage, his wife is MojoFiction’s sister, we had to respond lest we lose another battle...

ST. LOUIS CARDINALS FANS UNLEASH MASTER PLAN VS. CUBS
Anyone familiar with the baseball rivalry between the Chicago Cubs and the St. Louis Cardinals knows that it’s the greatest rivalry in the history of sports where at least one of the teams constantly sucks. Since it’s baseball, I’m sure there’s a stat about that somewhere. So it’s a decidedly lopsided rivalry, which may be... Continue Reading →
Norman Rockwell, Where Art Thou?
Picture if you will a dark, overcast day in Chicago. Street lamps reflect in small pools of water left over from the rain and a thin mist seems to hang in the air. Our eye takes us downtown, to the intersection of Wacker and LaSalle Street, just over the bridge. Imagine the rain has stopped ten... Continue Reading →
The Girl From I.T. – A Love Story
Okay, so we here at MojoFiction are actually in the midst of writing our second novel and we hope to have it finished … some day. It’s the story of a Chicago girl trying to make her way in the world despite her tendency to get in her own way of doing so, including getting... Continue Reading →
In Which We Discover Time Travel While Simultaneously Disproving the Existence of Time and, Therefore, Proving that Men are Smarter than Women
Ever wonder why Doctor Who (the smartest guy in the universe) always has a female companion, but he never has a relationship with her? That's right, modesty. But let us explain. See, this whole thing really began when we accidentally discovered time travel. And, unlike Hot Tub Time Machine (or Doctor Who for that matter), this really... Continue Reading →
The Long Father’s Day – Celebrating All Things Dad (Part 5)
FATHER'S DAY GIFTS! Now we come to it, the real meaning of Father’s Day. You thought it was all that other stuff, but let’s get real, it’s about the gifts. Like any guy, MojoFiction won’t waste any time extemporizing on why gifting is important on Father’s Day. We’ll just get to the gifts. 2013 Dodge... Continue Reading →
