fool me once , shame on everyone!
Current mood: betrayed

so my past came back to bite me on the balls last Saturday night, if it didn't seem so damn funny to me now (it definitely didn't Sunday morning) I wouldn't have written about it. But I still have to replace 3500 words, suxs, so guess what I'm doing on Thursday while the rest of you are celebrating National Moving (stealing) Day?

That's right, rewriting 3500 words from scratch. I really should keep my notes instead of throwing them out in a fit of drunken accomplishment.

and I was planning on playing xbox all damn day drunk on Gin while yelling at the white man from my high rise window like I did last year, but noooo....

I gotta work...read on peeps, read on.

shitticksbuildnewshitticksbuildnewshitcksbuildnewshitticks
Current mood: curious

After almost a month of no posting on the site (A Wandering Hoodlum Pretending to be Samurai) and spending that time trying to find a new flat to call home (took about two 1/2 weeks), packing (took a long time), spending a week just trying to get the lab animals into their carriers, the actual moving (after an 8 hour gig earlier that day) and then unpacking and getting the lab animals out of the carriers (about a day); they're not used to crickets.

So after all that I tried my first bit of under the influence poom writing wrapped in the vibe of the new lab, and THIS was the best I could do??

I'm having some reservations...The halls here look something out of The Shining...And I'm almost certain that I've seen two twin children standing at the head of the stairs leading to the back exit and the dumpsters, garbage will go out the front window until I get this sorted.

You can now go back to whatever pornography you were viewing before you came here.

It's cool.

The Updater Strikes
Current mood: ninja

Since the last blog post here, I've added a few new strips to The Mighty O, I guess my thinking that I'd post on Saturdays only was simply a self created myth. But I do think that I can do this on a three times a week deal, although this won't officially begin until I get into the new Lab at the end of the month, so until then I'm posting whenever the mood strikes. I don't want to burn myself out on this too early tho. I need at least 6 months before I get tired of something.

Around that time I think I'll start posting comments n'junk under each strip as well. So you've been warned, I take no responsibility if you begin talking in rhyming poetic form. I got nothing to do with that. It's not my fault.

Also, for those interested, the deadline for issue 3 of Growing Strange is October 1st. hit the link to check out the mag.


It's fuckin' hot in Denver today, like goddamn Africa hot. I don't like it this hot, Ed and Melvin (My pet "Killers of Man") are spending their days and nights in the bathtub, they won't let me in to shower in the mornings (They start with growling, then quickly move to biting and clawing), I gotta go to the Y now, and my AC is shit, sounds like its got smokers cough while trying to chew on stones.
I'm sure I saw a guy on the street today melting like the German dude in Raiders of the Lost Ark, it was trippy…But that could've just been a flashback, I took a lot of LSD when I was young.

Speaking of which…

Open call for submissions
Current mood: rejuvenated
Category: Writing and Poetry

Blind Alley

An upcoming small scale journal of experimental prose and poetry is calling out to all fiction writers, poets, and lyricists in Denver, Co and beyond to submit works leaning on the odd/bold/adventurous side.

This will be a print journal running at about 50 to 100 copies every other month with each issue distributed through out the Denver metro area and mailed to those who are interested. There may also be a possibility for internet download, but I'll get to that when the time comes.

All contributors will receive copies no matter where they live as long as you have a mailbox and I can afford it.

If you remember Needles for Teeth: The Literary Journal, then you know what I'm talking about.

I'm mostly looking for oddball poetry and prose no longer than 500 words.

This, like the last stage of NFT, will be a one man operation and reading more than 500 words + writing my own words will just make me as mad as a hatter so I'm looking to keep things tight and quick. As far as poetry goes (and the prose as well): be daring, original, and unconcerned as to what I or anyone else will think of it, this is supposed to be "art" right, well, it does not apologize. So let yourselves go.

Deep, dirty, and dangerous. That's what I'm looking for.

send any and all submissions to blindalley2008@gmail.com and I will respond to receipt of your email when I get it.

the deadline for the first issue is October 1st.

You can send up to 10 poems and 5 prose stories, I won't guarantee that everything you send will be accepted but I will read them all and do a little pick and choose and inform you immediately on what's going in and what isn't.

Thanks for reading, get to the writing, and good luck!

if you have any questions hit me up in the comments section below or email me at the submission email addy.

ciao!

Shoun Otis

Bit O’ Soul
Current mood: optimistic

another one about photography, and facial expressions.

A Wandering Hoodlum Pretending to be Samurai

If I do another one of these then I'm officially cracked.

Pray to your god for me; I need free wine and sake, a new assistant, a couple of sexy nurses, and a new all in one printer. I lost mine in an experiment gone wrong (my former assistant and nurses as well), I'll miss it (them).

First the wine and sake tho...
Then the nurses,
and then,
the assistant.

She can get the printer later.
