Today I went out for breakfast, when I returned home, a message was waiting for me on the phone thingy.
It was a newspaper from my hometown way far away.
I called them back.
They did an interview with me over the phone.
Then I emailed them a few different things they wanted.
This is my 3rd interview.
Holy smokes.
On a way bad-ass note, a copy of this book has made it's way to Brazil.
It's still only printed in english, for now.
I am hoping a publisher in Brazil likes my work.
They'd then contact the publisher up here, write out some legal crap,
then it's on.
My first book, not my last.
It is so flippin on.for poetry through the ceiling. ISBN: 1 4241 8840 7

Congrats Chad.
I'd like to write a book, but holy fuck! That's a lot of work.
I don't think anyone would read my book anyway, haha. Nobody here anyway.I necessarily have the passion for writing this, and you have the passion for condemning me; both of us are equally fools, equally the toys of destiny. Your nature is to do harm, mine is to love truth, and to make it public in spite of you. - Voltaire0 -

Thanks Jeanie! I'm not ready to write one yet though.

Well you could just start writing it now. I'm quite sure that it'll change and evolve as you do. Writing books is like that.
A lot of great writers look back on their early stuff and feel the need to clarify or completely debunk themselves. I think that's what's so good about books. It's a reflection of the headspace of the author at the time of writing.
Anyway, you write it, I'll read it.NOPE!!!

Yea, but it's a big endeavour. I'm torn between writing a Cognitive Philosophy book, drawing on the work of Crick, Koch, Damasios, Dennett, Churchlands, etc... and tackling some serious social issues in a scientific manner. Or writing a more personal autobiography, an account of events leading up to where I am at now and interweaving it with folk psychological concepts that stand up to scientific scrutiny. The latter might be more suited for the lay reader with a mind for fiction or drama. I just don't know, then I have other ideas for complete works of fiction with an interwoven moral lesson, but those are in their infancy.
It's all a lot of work and I've no idea where to begin, but I still need to read more.

Second option sounds more my thing, but you're the one that's gotta be committed to the project. Why don't you just open up a word document and jot few thoughts down every day? You can read up on things as you progress. I reckon if you wait till you're finished reading to start you'll never start!NOPE!!!

Congrats on the book!
For my friends bday I put together a bunch of his short stories (he kinda but writing aside for a while but wanted to publish his own book of short stories) so i took a bunch of his short stories and got them made into a book for his birthday, he hasnt recieved it in the mail yet but I hope he likes it, im pretty nervous that maybe I overhyped it for him. But you seem to be pretty proud of your book and you definitely should be! Good job!Vancouver 09/02/05, so far so good0 -
I been invited to my niece's school to read some poetry to them.
It's the same jr.high school I went too.
This will happen, not sure when.
Coming up soon I am reading some poems to a group of artists
and whoever else shows up.
This will be my first public event.(maybe sell a few copies)
I am growing a bit nervous as it gets near.
Um, holy crap.for poetry through the ceiling. ISBN: 1 4241 8840 7
