Living in Venice and hanging with friends is about as good as it gets.

I met my wife in the rundown apartment building on Westminster where we threw imprompto parties almost weekly.

Be sure to grab some Del Cor pizza and buy incense from the vendors...

"...experimenting with makeup - here, blue eyeshadow, mascara and red lip pencil."

Makeup? Dear god boy. Another half a beer in ya?

(You may want to consider looking for a place closer to Santa Monica Blvd., oh, say just west of La Cienega.)

Checked out Robin's site ...

Holy shit that's a cool house. Love the openness of it. At least from what I can see.

seems like you got some ideas for that screen play: i think the collection of blogged photos can be part of a visual poetic and part of a movie.

watch out for junkies: they can be emotional vampires. also od's suck. I hung out with poets a while back: i learned the hard way. its cool to be doing what you are doing. YOur writting style has changed: I think having different personas on chat rooms with different genders, and walks of life can be a great way to build characters for a novel. if you are done with the beats and all the sci fi stuff, read Celine/dostevsky: and use the blogged images to create a plot and theme that fits into a novel that becomes a book.

bringing together all generations in a novel would be powerful.

there is a time drain with them "friends." writting will need solitude.

use the google engine to and surveillence things people would want to steal: persons like mystery: the porn connection is everywhere...s

also blog forensic stuff...for the movie...it will really get things juicy when writting: you know you got the novel when writting become all encompassing: your being will change and morph into your characters: it will accelarate and take bits of your self into a acid burned exposed reality: raw truth of fictional narration that speaks to your generation: there will be suffering as you get good at it.

Don't tell me it's impossible until after I've already done it!
