Pamphlets
Periodicals
Chaz's writings have appeared in dozens of newspapers and magazines since the early 1970s, including Utne Reader, The Match!, Processed World, Freedom, Counterpoise, Communities, New Times Weekly (now Phoenix New Times), and Eye. At present he normally writes for periodicals only upon request.
Current Writing Projects
Chaz is currently revising "Free Radicals," his science fiction novel concerning cults, political repression, and interstellar colonization. He expects to finish the (supposedly) final revision by the end of the year — although the temptation to dink around with it once it's "finished" will be almost overwhelming.
Chaz is also currently translating Venezuela: Revolution as Spectacle, by Venezuelan anarchist writer and human rights activist Rafael Uzcategui. The book will be published in the Summer or early Fall 2010.
Once those two projects are finished, Chaz has several nonfiction projects waiting in the wings, and, assuming that one of the sci-fi houses picks up his novel, he plans to write a sequel to it.
Current Music Projects
Chaz's other primary activity is music. His band, The Pinche Blues Band, released a five-track EP of original songs in 2007. The songs are available here as free mp3 downloads:
- Postal (C. Bufe music & lyrics)
- Pinche Blues (C. Bufe music, C. Bufe & A. Acuña lyrics)
- Incognito Lounge (C. Bufe music. B. Hullfish lyrics)
- Slow Motion Suicide (C. Bufe music & lyrics)
- Breakdown in Lockdown (C. Bufe music & A. Acuña lyrics)
The band now has close to enough originals for two full CDs, and will probably record one full CD sometime toward the end of 2010.
