Welcome to Hink's Space.

I'm glad you're here, I've been waiting for you.  Come on in and take a look around.  This is the mesotech, slo-mo, retro, ego-info foster brainchild of Mike Hinkle.  While you're here, you have a free ticket to join me on a modern day cyber expedition in search of new music, good books, eccentric folks, exotic food, provocative poetry, good stories, quiet places and great pie.  Read the weekly "Hey Hink" column appearing weekly in The Edmond Sun.  Dig into the "What Hink Thinks" blog and let me know what's on your mind.  And find out what's going on with my books.  I'll keep you posted and I hope you'll stay in touch.

For now, I'm Hink and I'll see ya.
