My message to you came out wrong. What I actually wrote was, "I like that picture you are using on your profile. Where did that come from?" Either I left out the first sentence, or I typed it in the subject line, which didn't appear (I think that is what happened). So, I wasn't asking anything about something you said. You can call that vampire thing a story or a poem - it is a story, after all. So you don't need to apologize at all. Fuck it, man, us old timers have to stick together & give Lightning Rod a run for his money. HeeHEeee!

Good morning old friend

When I first got time fades into next i read three pages and put down for a week, then picked up and read five pages, I started to feel guilty why don't I read it. Then I read some more, each time I would start from the begiining, Then it dawned on me that i was trying to savor it, I am only up to page 18 but each time i reread it i connect the dots a little more, or perhaps I should say connect the astericks. I am regretfully approaching the end of the first story. Reminds me of reading Husserl. I got no music in me, I can only hear when I am listening to it, Husserl has a bit about time he compares it to a melody.

speaking of time have you ever read Mostly Harmless?

Anything that, in happening, causes something else to happen, causes something else to happen.
Anything that, in happening, causes itself to happen again, causes itself to happen again.
It doesn't all necessarily happen chronologically, though."

Dave! I guess I need to send you my newer version of Cut-Up (The Stolen Scroll), because I changed parts of it. Nothing major, but it's better now, I think. I'm glad you like it, too. I've been planning another chapbook - five more stories. WhooHOoO!

Bill -

for some reason the "subject" line in a reply doesn't appear with this software. I haven't had time to try to find out how to fix it.

Sorry about that!

Good to see you here....

I guess you thought I'd fallen off the face of the earth by now... I owe you interview questions... :oops: (i'm so embarrassed)

if it's any consolation, the writers pages will be up soon (that's what I've been so busy doing, along with my regular daily work that actually pays the mortgage)... so there will be an online chapbook for you there.

Looking forward to your new chapbook. I'll write to you soon.

"Unified Field Theory," a warehouseman sees the world as a place where human relations overcome the theories of physics: planes stay airborne by an act of collective concentration, and the bonds of love are stronger than atomic bonds.

I had that book in my hand almost bought it sorry I did not.

sounds like me, ignorant but hopeful

I love reading your book, thanks Bill

It seems like literature to me

Doreen what I been doing is making my first line of my reply the subject, that way when someone looks at all posts by me
the synopsis gives the subject.
not a big problem
