CBW
September 16, 2020
My writing ideas have mostly sprung from my intense imagination and my very talkative intuition but there are also concrete methods I use to stir the idea pot. Some of the idea-producing tactics I have listed below are ones I have used for years, some are new to me as of recently, and some practi...

New Age Addict

Bowies Bandit
December 8, 2019
It's weird just hard it is for me start going on anything. These past few weeks I've really gotten back into art which I have not done in a very long time. But this time around I have Facebook, Snapchat, Instagram, Youtube (fuck you, Youtube) to distract me which I didn't really give a shit…

August 8, 2013
I got a phone call from the Breast Cancer people soliciting funds this morning. I am already on the Do Not Call list but I know this kind of call is exempt. I really don't know why I picked up the phone once I saw what it was but I did. I said "Hello" and…

I went to the "making journals" workshop this afternoon, and, on the whole, enjoyed it a lot. It was not that I learned anything I didn't already know how to do, but it was invigorating to be making art again and fun to be doing it with a group of women. It is possible I…

The final news on the cell phone brouhaha---I have a new cell phone that I didn't pay for and, so far, it works. But I will never totally trust it again. Details: I talked to a supervisor that I had to go through two people to get. The big problem was that I had $100…

Patrisha
April 30, 2013
It has been a week since I wrote and I have spent a lot of it getting myself out of a depressive situation. I have gone through this depression stuff many times and when I lived in Vermont and with Fred, I had lots of coping skills. This time I was depressed a few days…
