THE TITLE IS: NO AIR FEEDING BRAIN MAKES BILLY RAY SEEM LIKE A CLASSICAL ACTOR

I really have the itch to write a book with someone. My top three people to write a book with are friends but there are three problems with all three. All three are really busy, all three do not consider themselves writers even though I love the way they think and write, and all three I'm afraid to ask because I'm afriad of rejection...You would think a writer would be use to it but, Hey?...Not really.

The past couple of weeks have my asthma getting worse and worse. Tonight I had a asthma attack when I got home and I'm still up at 6am recovering from it. I hate this part of my life. Just makes me want to walk barly breathing all the way back into past depressions. Guess, Like other things I'll just have to get over it and move forward.

Currently watching Hana Montana. I know, I know...

Writing away on a number of things. I need to also make a trip to B&N to check out the Writer's Market book for this year because I feel a short story state of mind coming on also which would mean sending out some submissions.

For those around here locally in the Melbourne Florida area there will be a big used book sale by Friends Of The Library at the Melbourne Public Library. Here is the information for the sale:
Thursday, October 4th 7pm-9pm, members only preview sale. Membership for Friends Of The Library available at the door. Friday & Saturday, October 5th and 6th from 9a-5pm for the public. On October 7th from 1p-3pm there will be a Bag-It Sale, grocery bags of books for $2.00.
I love library book sales and want to go but if I do it might be only for the bag sale because I can barly afford the $2.00 deal. Check it out if you are in the area. It supports a good cause for the community.

THE TITLE IS: PARKED WITH HANDS OPEN

Been offline for a while helping family. One of my best friends was in the hospital. Will try to get back to regular updates tonight but just wanted to let the few people who visit here know that I did not drop off the face of the Earth or anything of the such.

THE TITLE IS: Last Night One Of The Things Discussed Was Nipples…

Written at home, 10am, with the first soda of the day in my hand.

Bleeding across whispers of nuclear terrorist states,
I live in one, un-united and all on the take,
The people in the small houses are at stake,
The children of the wealthy are our future,
I’m still wondering when the world will awake,
Crawl, Crawl, my mind screams,
All most of us can do is wait,
All this world can give us is hate,

The above is brought to you by someone who just woke up and is not in the best of moods at the moment.

I picked a old book off one of our shelf’s which I picked up at a yard sale a long time ago but never read. I picked it because I had not read any Junior fiction in a long time and I think to move all over the place in my reading. The book is, The Secret World Of Alex Mack: Cleanup Catastrophe! By Cathy East Dubowski. I always thought that was a good youth show when it was on Nickelodeon years ago. I read it last night. Mar also brought a book I asked for back from the library last night titled- Angus, Thongs And Full Frontal Snogging written by Louise Rennison. Mar has read all of the series that has come out so far. I wanted it to use as a read before bed book and the journalish structure of the book fits that purpose. I’m always reading a ton of books at once. Currently the main book I am reading is Twilight by Stephenie Meyer and so yes I did not finish it before the signing. I have been doing more writing than reading of late. Which is a good thing for me and the books I am working on. The book I read when we go to movies or out for dinner or such sort trips is Doctor Who: The Feast Of The Drowned by Stephen Cole and one of these days I will finish Doctor Who: The Burning by Justin Richards but it keeps getting pushed to the side for other books which is no say on the quality of the book and more on how weird my reading habits are. And I did not even mention the comics, graphic novels, short stories, and internet fiction. No wonder I have always had that dream of drowning in badly spelled words.

Oh, and I always have a Douglas Adams book in my bag at all times and currently that book is So Long And Thanks For All The Fish.

Currently watching Rosanne which is so my family, may watch Star Trek later…Man, I need to find a job soon. You think as a writer that all you need is full days to write without a job to get in the way to get things done and after a few weeks of that all you need is a chance to totally get away from writing for a while every day and nothing does that quite like a soul sucking daily job.

After Star Trek I don’t think anything else worth watching will be on for a while so I will be walking slowing back into the waters of the books I’m currently working on.

THE TITLE IS: “Kings don’t hurt babies, Giant swords hurt babies.”

We hit a couple of libraries for visits yesterday and I picked up a few books from their dollar bins. The first two books I picked up were by writers I had been meaning to check out for a while. One was Nightseer by Laurell K. Hamilton. I have almost bought one of her Anita Black books a number of times but Nightseer was a her debut novel and it was in mint condition so it was worth the dollar. The second book I picked up on this trip was The First Counsel by Brad Meltzer. At the second library of the day I picked up Star Trek, Deep Space Nine: The Siege by Peter David who is one of my favorite writers and The Blind Assassin by Margaret Atwood. Another favorite writer of mine

Today I sleep late and felt like shit with a migraine as Mar tried to make me feel better. Gotta love that lady. And not just because she puts up with my inability to follow directions from the living room into the bathroom without help.

My head has been really killing me of late. Mostly due to my bad tooth. Good news in the writing front as I added two good chapters to the dark adult book I’m working on and also decided to combine a couple of writing PDF collections I put out a couple of years ago which contained a lot of terrible editing by myself. I will be restructuring the stories into something different focusing on a better way to tell the original ideas I had for the stories in the first place. This time though I will get a better editor for them so people will actually be able to understand the crap they are reading. Both of these book may be released as PDF books. Depends all on how the turn out in the end. Still working on the second draft of Stereo but my mind just is not in the proper place for that story at the moment so work there is moving slowly.

Need to send some good thoughts out to Touch and Robin Bird who have been having a hard time of it of late.

Oh, and from now on I will be answering all comments in the comments area. I know that’s the way every one else does it but for a long time I tried to answer within entries but the other way is better, I admit it.

THE TITLE IS: STEPHENIE MEYER SIGNING

testing the hotel bed
The hotel in Miami was nice. The bed was way off the floor and had small pillows?

See Mar in the mirror wondering if I'm in love with the TV in the hotel
I wanted to sneak the TV out in my pocket but Mar thought they might notice.

Miami outside our hotel
The city which is great but has the worst driving layout I have ever seen.

the lines grow
Before she came out everything was calm in the gym. We estimated that around 300 people where probably there and most had up to three books each to have signed.

then the ladies rushed forward
She came out and the lines disapeared as young ladies all over rushed forward. The event people did not line this place up corretly. It took us almost two hours to get our books signed but it was cool.

the liberian finds our home
She always finds one. I love them and her too.

I did this very fast before the computer dropped signal again so sorry for the more than likly massive amount of spelling and grammar errors.
