Inspiration/Justification

Posts have been too infrequent for my liking in this month of February. There's been a few factors.
The first, I've been completely out of money. I do 90% of my writing in 8-10 hour marathon nighttime sessions in restaurants that serve coffee and food as late as possible. This month, I've no money for a single cup of coffee. Hard economic times, you know. Luckily, the other 10% of my writing comes in kernels when I walk alone and, being too poor for to take the subway home from work- I've had a lot of long, cold walks with myself to think. So I haven't been completely unproductive.
The second, I just moved, and I can't scan pages from out of my notebook that I like to include with each piece I post on the blog.
The third, I've been very busy. For a while, some very big things with a script I've been working on for the better part of 2008, whose final contents must remain copyrighted (as they include previously existing characters). I'm making some surprising headway with it. And currently, some big things happening with my music, which I like to keep separate from the work I keep on the blog. Though there's some words related to each creative conduit that might show up in both places in the near future.

and Unfortunately I don't have much else to show now other than an apology to anyone who has been waiting for a bit more from this blog in this month.

Now, I have a couple of interesting things to show.

Here's something I've come across in research for everything I'm up to. You may find some themes in some upcoming work.



and here's an album I found very inspiring these past weeks:

Christian Death - Only Theatre of Pain (1982)
(for fans of Bauhaus, the Cure, 45 Grave, Swans)

I have listened to this before and I like it a great deal.

I have been looking forward to your words, but I'll get on waiting awhile longer. I felt the same for a short while.

How is it you are the poorest person I know, when you are also the person with absolutely no vices?
