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.

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.

we all make our beds
now we all must lie in them
