    what did they tell you exactly?
    someone else i know in Bellingham has a copy.
    Bellingham kicks ass.
    haha.
    I actually just saw this thread and ordered it online to pick up here. I like supporting Village Books, it's a very cool store. I've seen lots of authors there. You should come up and do a reading. :)

    No maam she isn't my English professor.
    She's a 60 year old college student who's
    pritty fuckin cool and in my Algebra class.

    This story is quite long and kinda private but...
    She's given me some of the most incredible
    compliments one could ever imagine.
    I feel as if I am in debt to her.

    So I have yet another book story for you people.
    This is very cool.
    Today I am at school doing my math homework when
    a dude I have seen around and talked to maybe once or twice before,
    he comes over and sits down, the dudes very feminine, intelligent
    and stuff and he says he's in love with some dude, they are living together.
    This dude knows I have poetry goin on somewhere, somehow,
    he read some of it from somebody I know at the school or someplace.
    He wants to give my book to his boy friend for his b/f's birthday.
    And , and he wants me to write something romantic inside the cover
    which I said I would try to come up with something nice for the both of them.
    I think it's pretty awesome...
    Frank will be reading George some romantic
    poetry by way of campfire and a erect penis or two will get friction applied.

    Nicely done fellas...you fucker rock whoever you are..

    I am yet again humbled down
    Thank you :)

    do you guys ever get your heart beat all up in a flurry when you have to read your stuff in front of a crowd? I have read a few times, and each of them, I was anxious of course, but this one time I read a really serious poem I wrote at a eulogy for someone our family cared a lot for and knowing his wife and kids and extended family were there, I really got nervous. Plus, I forgot my copy in the car and had to read it from memory so I actually had to LOOK up at the people. It went well, and the funny thing is that when I saw all those people, out in the distance, they all were blurry. Has anyone else had that happen?

    thank you again,

    ive only posted a few pieces over in the poetry section. im working on my first novel right now. ( doing the reaserch to get things right like street names, and shit like that is a pain ) :)

    but yeah, no better feeling in the world then to write something, and even if only one person likes it, its a victory.
    Peace, Love.

    How do you get a publisher? I had a contract a few years ago from a small publisher in St Louis for my book and I got al excited but then out of nowhere, after he kept putting things off over and over with new dates that the book was coming out, dropped out of site and I never heard from him again.
    So, I got gun shy and I wondered how you go about starting again?

    Any advice would be so good. Thanks

    well you were in front of a group who were all attending a funeral.
    that is a sad time for everyone involved.
    this is one reason why you were all messed up on the inside.
    nerves all fuckered up and stuff.
    at least you can resight your writings.
    i cannot resight a gd thing i write.
    i write em, read em, put em away.
    write em, read em, put em away.

    anyways, i'd be a wreck too, reading my poetry i wrote at someones funeral thingy.

    normally i get a lil bit nervous but nothing major.
    and yes they kinda get fuzzy looking in the audience.
    more of a fading in/out type thing.
    it's my shy side that gets me all messed up on the inside.
    but it doesn't matter, either way it's on.

    nicely done at getting your research together for your book.
    you're on the right track it sounds like to me.
    what are you writing about exactly?

    in the near future i am writing 3-4 books other than poetry books.
    research will become a great friend to me.
    what a crock of shit.
    i have gotten myself into a real hum-dinger this time.

    the book im working on now is kind of a action adventure conspiracy thing. lol.

    every thing else ive written about, is stuff i really know and have lived, so not much research had to be done.

    but this. woah! in this story the main character will travel all over the world, so yeah, i have my work cut out for me, cause i just dont want to throw shit out there thats not true. i have downloaded over 70 different maps to cities all over the world. lol. im getting kind of nit picky here :)

    this is the first thing ive felt good enough about to try to get published. i have tons of short stories and a 2 and half other novels finished. but always felt the need to go back and self edit those. this one im excited about.
    Peace, Love.

    sounds like you have your stuff in order and whatnot.
    good deal on you dude.
    and yes, if your character is a world traveler you will need to be very accurate in your story.

    good luck dude.

    i am full of book ideas.
    i have an idea, one of many.
    a book on a serial killer truck driver.
    i know i have about 13 years experience driving big huge trucks around the country.
    my dad worked at a state penitentiary for 30 years.
    combine stories, add some imagination, and you got yourself a serial killer truck driver novel.
    perhaps a series of books in a little collection thingy.

    just a thought, i have a few pages already written, but put away, for now.

    what about my viking war story/stories.
    to write that i'll need to travel north to nordic norse fest 101.
    which will be a flipping riot in itself.
    a fucking hoot to say the least.

    this shit takes years.
    plus studying the rainforests of south america, peru and such, brazil...
    im fucked..

    but it has to be done, this writing stuff.

    good luck with your future writings dude.

    ive only read in front of the class and my heart does beat a little faster but im confident enough in my own self that the rush i get from hearing my words (though it could quite possibly be from the sound of my own voice :rolleyes: :D ) cancels everything else out. :)

    wow, that sounds like some intense writing. good luck, man. you should have it in print for all that work. I got such a rush writing my book now I would even get a bigger rush seeing a check, but oh well. still isn't it so cool to have something that feeds you so well?
