Wow, it's hard to find time to keep up with the internets when you're working six days a week, eight to twelve hours a day. I knew, esoterically, that it was what I was in for; interning on an organic farm, but it takes some redefining of priorities. Some days the web just takes a back seat to making dinner, or taking a hike in...

Well, suicideKids, long time no see. I've been traveling, on a journey across the country, taking that once in a lifetime chance to completely change my life, do new and exciting things. I'm taking the scary path, fully aware that it's not always the right thing to do, but there can be no doubt that it's better than the alternative.

Phase one of my journey...

Still no proper updates, and with my internet access spotty, and presumably about to get spottier, it isn't going to happen in the immediate future. I'm in Portland today, and loving life. My adventure might not compare with many of those that others have taken, but that's OK. For me, it's been a real stretch, and I'm outside my comfort zone, and doing all I...

I've just realized how out of date all of my profile information is, not to mention the scandalously un-updated blog entries. Back to resolving to do better. Once a week. Swear to jeebus, but not quite yet.

Been applying for internships at organic farms up and down the left coast. We'll see if I find my world turned upside down in the next month or...

So this whole POD magazine thing is really taking me out of my comfort zone, and I've got a lot more work to do before the end of the month. I believe I can do it, but may well exhaust myself trying.

Have edited a story to the point of submitability I think, but am trying to get some feedback from people I know while...

Guess, it didn't last all that long, in the end. It is twenty ten. This is the year of of makery. By the end of January I will have something POD available for purchase, come hell or high water. Will submit at least one story for publication this month, preferably more than that, and by the end of this month I will be published even...

Here am I again. I'm actually managing this, though it seems I'm not saying anything much worth reading.

Have gotten a lot of good writing done this week. Thought I finished a short story earlier today, only to realize, whilst out on a motorcycle ride, that it wasn't done yet, and the new ending is actually pretty cool.

Haven't done a ton of cooking this...

Here I am again. What has happened this week? A whole lot of nothing. I'm almost done with the short story I'm writing. Should be able to finish it up today, tomorrow at the latest.

Friday was New Years for Jews. We celebrated by eating a bunch of traditional foods, and avoiding all mention of religion. It was nice. I baked a massive braided round...

Wow. It's funny how no matter how good the intention is I never manage to update this blog as often as I'd like. New goal. Once a week. I know it's fucking unlikely, but I'll try anyway.

So what's up with me? Finished one of the writing projects I've been working on since February. It's a nine hundred page long weekly webcomic. It has major...

Everyone who is not an atavistic luddite or crazy religious nutbag should go here(National Institue of Health) and inform our lovely, cantankerous, ignorant government that we support curing cancer, and fighting Parkinson's, and finding ways to extend human life. This is what i wrote. it's a little silly, and far from elegant, but I think it makes my point.

I not only support the use...

Long overdue for a blogging. ScriptFrenzy is over; for me, at least. I finished yesterday. 100 pages of screenplay in twenty days. Not fucking bad if I do say do myself.

I've been so busy this month. Packing all my shit so that I can return to the home of my childhood. It feels kind of shameful to be moving back in with the 'rents,...
