SuicideGirl: Jordan

Jordan likes the thought of getting all her beautiful friends in a hottub and just shagging it all the way down to the bone with every single one of them.

UPDATE - me and some friends i met thru jt leroy's books are starting a website of our own to expose our art and deal with this hoax in a positive way. many of his old fans have been thru tremendous tragedy in our lives and will turn this very negative, cruel literary joke into something positive to serve our own passions.

the website will be called "Somewhere To Run To." I'll keep you all informed.........

i got this email this morning from a friend who found out the scoop on jt.
jt was a complete hoax, put together by this chick, Astor, her husband and friends. some of them did publicity, some wrote the books, while HUNDREDS of loyal fans shared dark childhood stories of abuse, thinking they had found a genuine artist who understood their pain.
I'M SICKENED BY THIS. i talked to this hoax on the phone, i have the conversation on tape because i was conducting an interview for a magazine. i kind of want to listen to it again, just to try and make sense out of something that can never make sense.......
"It's such a slap to the artists who really are toiling away to create meaning from the hardships of their lives," Tea said. "It turns the redemptive quality of a lot of writing into a total farce." - Michelle Tea, SF writer.

anyway,
with me, things are going very well. my writing is getting so much better. i've learned to take criticism and perfect my work in a way i thought i'd never be able to. and what i write is real. from one heart and one mind and one hand, all belonging to the same person.

i can't wait until march - The Strokes show, my bday and my new tattoo. looks like
ymonster will be doing it!!! biggrin

everyone should read "Kafka On The Shore" by Haruki Murakami, his work is as cool as his name sounds.

well i'm going away now, feelin kinda tired. last night at four in the morning we were awakened by a girl running down the hallway and screaming and someone else pounding on the wall. the entire fiasco lasted a few seconds and then abrupt silence took over. i have no idea what the ruckus was about. i'm sure just drunken silliness. but it was, like most things, fuckin' weird.

oh, and if anyone thinks i'm doing anything this weekend besides watching "six feet under," writing and drinking wine, you're nuts.

I know it is a subject that you are passionate about …I don’t think it was done maliciously but as part of a broader scope???

PEOPLE SUCK.

im finally writing again, sort of. i put a small thing in my journal, but im working on something else. i think it may turn into a book, but for right now im looking at it as a short story. A book kinda feels like sort of pressure, but if i tell myself its a short, then theres no pressure to keep going. i, right now, am not surre my writings good enough to do anything with, not like yours anyway, but i was thinkin about takin my photography more serious. im gonna buy a better camera and mabey take a class or 2. not sure yet. i really like the nature shots, and was thinkin about doing some human interest pieces, like b/w shots of homeless ppl in the city. oh and naked chicks, definatly gonna do a set for someone here, just to see if i can. heh

ive been watching SFU for like ages lol i started season 3 yesterday and am now in the 3rd episode of season 4 haha i cant stop. i know youll love the last few episodes of season 5, be prepared to cry, i know i did. quite a few times.

i hadnt seen season 3 or 4 in a while, and i did actually cry during the episode where claire sees lisa with the baby at the cemetery, and also when nate buries lisa. im a dork lol

OH! and i finally got the network card all set on the laptop, im installing aol today but im gonna get a new name for it, is yours the same? ill add you later on so we can talk. id call but i cant find your number!

luv ya bunches darlin, ttyl

I don't know much about this Jt Leroy thing, i usually don't like these kind of artista that become some sort of "messiahs" in their genre, especially the counterculture ones. But from the bits and pieces i got here about it, it really sucks. I mean, come on, the joke was taken too far long ago i guess, taking in a way advantage of someone's pain for gain or amusement is beyond bad, no matter the reputation you are looking for.

Building something out of ruins is always good for the soul. I'm looking forward to see the result.

Good luck with this

Glad you're doing well, writing-wise.

You seemed less enraged by the Leroy thing last week, but I guess "new shit has come to light," as they say...

Enjoy the wine, writing and "Six Feet"...

JT Leroy reminds me of my conman Uncle. He started a gun magazine, but because of deadlines, he'd make up articles and stuff by invented and real experts. In the end he got busted--he always did--but it was one hell of a magazine. Even the real experts gave him kudos on that score. There's truth, even in shadows on the wall!

I'm happy to hear you're writing skills are improving. It isn't easy, writing. It's one thing to put words on paper, but to have them make sense and appeal to others--that's the rub. Never could do it myself!

Actually, I'm thinking I might not go, and that has more to do with Rob than anything else.

That web thing is a brilliant idea… converting a negative into a positive is a true indicator of higher intelligence.
