OH SWEET LADY INTERNET, THANK YOU FOR ALLOWING ME THE HONOR OF SUCKING FROM YOUR BLOATED TEATS OF KNOWLEDGE AND WORLDWIDE COMMUNICATION ONCE MORE, I LOVE YOU
I'm a chapter and a half into the new project. It has sci-fi elements, but it is not sci-fi.
I'm still on the disabled list, but headed for the farm leagues soon.
And I needed something to break up the Vonnegut binge I'd been on, so I bought a book written by Nick Cave (yes, that Nick Cave) thinking it'd be appropriately nihilistic. It is, I guess, especially the first few chapters, in which the protagonist jacks it on every other page. I never knew there were so many ways to describe slapping a cock around. Christ. Otherwise, the book is okay.
Jim Carroll's last book, a novel, is coming out November 4. It's called The Petting Zoo. I think it might be the book I've been waiting to read since I was seventeen and devoured Forced Entries no less than four times in succession. I want to pre-order it and have it appear magically in my mailbox, just like the Greg Graffin book appeared in Shane's hands this afternoon, autographed and everything!
