(no subject)
My next literary project will be called "500 Words on..." (that's kind of dull, so there will probably be a subtitle).
That's assuming I don't lose interest by the time I wake up tomorrow - strong possibility.
Now if only I can find a lamp that lights up my entire room and doesn't put me to sleep like the gruesome fluorescent lighting that's built into my light fixture.
"The solution to your insomnia has been in front of you all along," said the good fairy, wondering what cliched movie/book/television quote she was mangling.
Thinking about sleeping with the lights on.
Bought a book today. The first time in centuries that I've gotten one at a physical store (bookstores around here are pretty crap). Big NYC publisher. Think it's a rerelease of a self-published book. Don't really like it so far. That's no surprise. I haven't been able to find any fiction in a while that interests me. Two people who I "know" wrote blurbs for the book. Weird.
I need to start getting into non-fiction again. Except I don't know where to start.
I'm no longer interested in crackpot conspiracy/metaphysical stuff, although I suppose books that are "on the outside looking in" wouldn't be so bad if they were well-written, entertaining, and interesting. It's too bad I've exhausted the books of Colin Wilson. His stuff was on those subjects, even though he was essentially writing the same book over and over again. And he wasn't a crackpot. It was interesting how regardless of the subject of each book, he would always connect it to his favorite subjects. He's kind of like David Icke if he had a brain, I found him fascinating rather than getting my pants bored off, and he didn't believe every single thing that anyone ever told him. Oh, and he doesn't believe anything ludicrous, like that the hidden truth of everything is revealed in a Rowdy Roddy Piper movie.
