Kind of a wash out. I felt nauseous the whole time. I slept the whole time too. Wake up and watch a couple of movies, some TV, and attempt a little writing. Stuff that needs to get done gets done, but not a lot of it by me. Some of this stuff that happens backstage,… Read More Saturday

After a day of feeling sick, not being able to do anything, and it being implied that this is something I am happy about, or that it is something suspicious, I am sat here feeling fairly much the same. I know that there is something wrong with me, so I am isolating in an effort… Read More Friday

I like two of what i think are considered lesser-Disney — Basil: The Great Mouse Detective, and Black Cauldron. The design of Black Cauldron caught my imagination when I was a kid, as it was all over some of the breakfast cereal I was eating, and I liked collecting the figures; the fact that it… Read More Thursday

Do you build your sci fi out of the fears of today? No, I like to build them out of the unadmitted truths. Were you to build a dystopia out of the fears you would be giving voice to some of the kookiest conspiracy theories out there. The unadmitted truths give you the key to… Read More Wednesday

There is so much out there that you can watch and listen to and read, and it can all feed into the compost heap. There is enough that I can fall in love and then forget someone and then rediscover them again. I loved The Commitments when it came out. An age ago I found The Swell… Read More Monday

I am 86 days into writing my 365 Projects — prose, poetry, and non-fiction. It is not always the easiest to get it done, I don’t suppose. I have had to push being awake to the limits some days to get the work done, but I am in love with the work. It feels like… Read More Sunday

I am 10 days in on Project 365 for poetry, prose and non-fiction and I am enjoying it. I couldn’t even explain quite how it happens, but an aesthetic sort arrives as something is both conceived and put into action. I have this whole shared universe that I have built, but given the way that… Read More Tuesday

A rare Monday off. Hardly need to explain that this has not been daily. I definitely went through something in the last year where sitting down to write about my writing was harder, because I barely had enough time and energy to write. It was a busy year in many ways, but it was also… Read More Monday

Allergies are a bitch. Florida has a lot of things to be allergic to. I lost most of the day because something is making my ears react like I have an inner ear infection. That means that my stomach acts like I have an inner ear infection. Can’t sit up to move, and can’t eat… Read More Saturday

When you are living life, time seems by the by. I don’t look at my watch and I find myself shuttled through the day by doing what I need to do. How different is that to a good book. The physical universe often only seems a slog because you focus on the friction of the… Read More Sunday
