There Was No One Left to Notice When They Came For Us

First they put away the dealers, keep our kids safe and off the street. / Then they shooed away the bums, then they beat and bashed the queers, turned away asylum-seekers, fed us suspicions and fears. We didn’t raise our voice, we didn’t make a fuss. It’s funny there was no one left to notice […]

Running With Blood on Our Knees

This song is kinda more of an anthem and is really fun to run to. We are young We are strong We’re not looking for where we belong We’re not cool We are free / No bridge to burn Nowhere to turn  

Ambiguity is My Jam, But I Didn’t Mean it Like THAT…

I have a… problem isn’t the word, but it’s close. There’s this thing anyway with Drink Me where you can read it in a way that’s… not what I intended. I’ve been aware of it for a while now. And I don’t mind people reading it that way because honestly the idea of following that […]

There doesn’t seem to be an official video clip for this song so I thought you should have it sung to you by Neal Caffrey. Feels just like I don’t try Look so good i might die All I know is everybody loves me  

I Will Not Intentionally Tell the Truth

I don’t write about real people or real events.* But sometimes real life sneaks in anyway. In Drink Me there is a throwaway line of description halfway through. It’s a very simple sketch outline of a piece of backstory that never comes into the book. It’s one line and one of my relatives read it, […]

Watching this video feels like a weird kind of high school flashback. Because of the outfits. Just so we’re clear.    

Important Decisions Should Not Be Based on Laziness or ‘Because it’ll Make Me Laugh’

Right now I’m trying to figure out if this new story is in third person or first and if it’s about a boy or a girl because I’ve got chunks of text in basically every permutation. When I start writing something new I tend to simply use ‘he’ and she’ because it’s the easiest way […]

Personally, I’m hanging out for ThinkGeek’s moodINQ – Programmable Tattoo System to become a reality.  

I Don’t Even Know Your Name

September 27, 2013 by

That lyric line ‘I don’t even know your name’ seems particularly pointed right now because I’m struggling to name the characters in this new book that I may be, might be writing. This song is kinda silly and if you read it straight I have some issues with the lyrics. Also the video clip is […]

If I Was the Whiskey…

Yesterday one of my readers* came over and we worked through the notes they’d given me on Drink Me. I kind of love doing that in person because it gives me the opportunity to wave my arms and roll my eyes and stick my tongue out at them when I disagree. Which I think helps […]
