So, I finally got a list up and running for the Link of the Night. If you're not on it (as in, don't get this message, and you want to), shoot me a note, or leave a message or just somehow let me know. Same goes for the instance that you want off the list - please let me know.

Happiness, by .
The Interview, by .
Rusting Bridges of Suburbia, by .

So, I did some peruzing, and earthed up these three pieces.
Happiness is beautiful in its own simplicity, and has a subtle kick to it that I find lacking in a lot of reading these days.
The Interview is an interesting little for-the-stage piece that I found myself cracking up over, all over the place. There's some great humor and dialogue going on here, as well as some great subtle toss-ins for the actors to experiment with. Something I would love to see performed.
While Rusting Bridges of Suburbia might be a little ho-hum subject-wise, the rhythm and control of meter that ~ honestbrutality has accomplished here is impeccable. It takes a lot of practice and a lot of control of vocabulary to get a good rhythm in a slam piece these days, and it's done beautifully here.



Get writing, fuckos. *jesusbite

...So that's where you went.

God speed, my friend. I always knew that this was going to be the path for you.

You kick some amazon ass, now.

Congrats on the books, amigo. Do drop by sometime and say "hi."

[link] might be another place for some of you image wizards (as well as writers) to sell your work. They're doing a lot of calendars over there right now. And the storefront they give you allows you to charge whatever price you like for your work without losing your copyright or having to sign a contract.

Probably isn't for everyone but I'm betting a lot of artists and writers would like to take a look at what Lulu's offering for the flat price of nothing. It would give you another good place to post your work with some hope of actually making some money on it.

Best,
J

sumants: "how the hell do you attract the self-absorbed adolescent pseudo-perfectoids?"

I dunno, sumants. I've never tried it. I live in a world where a spade is mostly just a spade. Nothing better, nothing worse.

It's a seven card table and the guy on the other side is allowed to strut his pair of aces in the hole on the third card. He's got bragging rights on the full-house coming his way until a couple more cards fall. I'm mostly not offended by it.
