[To: any readers…]
I haven’t been working on any fiction lately though I do have a couple ideas on paper.
In my microcosm here are some news items:
- I have recently topped 500 books in my library. Not so much sure, but it’s something.
- Last three additions: The Complete Idiot’s Guide to Sewing Illustrated by Carole Ann Camp, Why I Write by George Orwell (one of my favorites), and Meditations in an Emergency by Frank O’Hara. The last is a poetry anthology. I don’t know why I keep coming back to it. I suck at poetry. I fall somewhere between a parody of emo and an actual real-life sniffling asshole.
All that aside, I have lost much inspiration lately. I think it had to do with not having a job. When you’re looking into an empty fridge, the typewriter appears superfluous. Freelance aside, I recently accepted a small teaching position at a local vocational school of sorts, teaching story writing. Inasmuch, it’s time for me to start exercising again. Stay tuned. Stay drunk. Stay black. Cheers.
