Brain Explosion: A Collection of Thoughts, Verbiage, Assorted Quotables and Profundities

By Dave Shelton

My brain never seems to turn off. It is in constant creative mode. Story/script ideas, cartoons, thoughts, anecdotes, lyrics, melodies. it's a never ending brain explosion. And I have to have some kind of noise stimulus around me just to try and distract me because if I try to quiet it, the silence is deafening. That is why I decided to put together this book as a cathartic release, a spring cleaning (so to speak) of my brain just to make room for the next explosion. Enjoy the garage sale that is my mind and I hope you find something you can fill your head with.

Book preview

I like watching creativity play out. Dave Shelton possesses an imagination that balances darkness and innocence in a very insightful array of cartoons, conversations and musings. It’s the work of a free mind, and a template like that has a value all its own, particularly these days. Sweet and sardonic, it’s good stuff.

Rick Overton (Emmy® Winning Actor/Writer)

What is the best and worst I can say about Dave Shelton’s talents? The best is he is innovative, creative, funny, and brilliant. The worst is he does not have the ability to clone himself.

Stephen Furst (Award Winning Producer/Actor)

I’m proud to be Dave’s friend. I’m proud of his book. You will see and sense this wonderful talent to amuse all.

Kevin Dobson (Emmy® Nominated Actor/Director)

Out of the mouths of babes…Well, even though Dave Shelton may not be a babe, his musings and observational wit are sure to click with many. Sharp and very much on point, he shows you our world through his art and unique perspective.

Charlie Chiodo (Emmy® Nominated Producer/Visual FX Producer)

Adorably Bizarre; Originally Eclectic; Creatively Scattered

Dana Barron (Emmy® Award Winning Actress, Mother, and Philanthropist)

Fun, witty and full of surprise, Dave Shelton delivers a much needed antidote to today’s stressful lives.
