Bird cages
I really just wanted to see how this looked on my site. Pretty nice, I'll say.
Sorry about the border drift. For the sake of art. It will correct next blog which may be any minute now.

I Call Bull Shit
Making over a turn of phrase that, when analysed, is in fact contradiction at best and a mixed metaphor at the least and saying it is such good poetic language. Fuck that. I may write like a third grader, but I am not pretentious about it at all. And a couple of grown ups have said I don't write like a third grader. I think this bull shit phrase turning is not the same as telling a story. And that is what I do. I tell stories about people. Things happen, but I don't tell stories about things that happen. I tell stories about the people the things happen to. Because that is the way life struck me. I am a person that things happened to,and they keep on happening. Like rain from hell. And that is what I am made of, the way I handled the things that happened and what those things did to me. The person. If you never before in your life saw me, and you struck up a conversation with me, you would take me at face value. You wouldn't know how I retaliate, how I hurt, how I inflict pain, how I have handled pain. So if I told you the things that happened to me, you would have to relate that to the person you are talking to. And I would have to tell you a story. And I would fucking weep.

Second Thoughts
Remorse? I put up an excerpt from book three and then took it down. I was ticked because it didn't make a wave on twitter. Then I notice ten links from twitter. I am an ass.
I am hating the mood swings lately. Usually I know enough to go with it and get what I can out of it, but I usually know the precipitating factors. I had to take my MS down cuz I saw (on my beloved Kindle) that it was awash in typos and an actual MISSPELLED word. I wonder what else is in there that I didn't notice. but I was so nervous about re posting. Kindle tried to do a one up on the Smashwords Style guide and it got me all anxious. I just did it the old way. So I was nervous about that and now it is done, so I guess I feel like this because I dealt with the source of the anxiety, but I would prefer to feel like this at nine a.m., thank you. Then maybe I'd get that kitchen floor done. And I know the book was full of errors cuz I am so not into it anymore. One person found one typo in the first book.
I want to go outside and shoot that satellite down.
