Well, there would have been photos today. But yesterday, when I was going to dump everything onto my iMac, I couldn't find the cameras. Spooky was out, and she knew where they were, and I could not discern their hiding place. So, maybe tomorrow ( Read more... )

Here on May 5th, I'm almost always still running the space heater in the morning. Currently, it's only 60˚F here in Providence. In Birmingham, it's 81˚F. I'm quite convinced now that New England will not have a summer this year. We hardly had one last year ( Read more... )

Saturday, David Lamb of Brown Bird died. We got the news yesterday evening. He'd been seriously ill since last spring. The band brought Kathryn and I enormous joy. Brown Bird was one of the few things that could, pretty much without fail, get me to leave the House. In one of those fucked up wrinkles in fate, we first saw David and MorganEve play ( Read more... )

Yesterday, I wrote 1,792 on Chapter Six of Cherry Bomb. A prolific day. And I spoke with my editor yesterday about the cover.

I received Liz Hand's very flattering introduction to the Centipede Press edition of The Drowning Girl: A Memoir.We were spared the 3"-6" of snow and got only a dusting, that and gale-force winds. Currently, here in ( Read more... )

I'm sleeping more than I've slept in ages. This is the wonder of marijuana. Well, and there's the Seroquel, which I keep meaning to stop taking at night, but then forget and take anyway. Probably because I'm smoking so much pot. There's no getting around the fact that pot makes me stupid. Opiates sharpen my wits and give me clarity, and pot makes ( Read more... )

My thighs are sore this morning, but, alas, only from shifting around boxes in the nightmare that is our two storage units. So get your minds out of the gutter. For now. We had to take five boxes of comp copies and ARCs of various books to Pawtucket yesterday evening. Unfortunately, I opened a few boxes I ought not have opened, Πανδώρα-like, and ( Read more... )
