Existential nihilistic utilitarianism and other made up big words for no reason

So, Saturday, I went out to do some errands and on my way out to meet qa friend for dinner, drinks and basketball, I stopped by my (actual paying) office, I had written some stuff Thursday and forgot to email it to myself... so I get there, see that I have some time to kill and do some work. Sadly, not writing.And, then as I am looking at the clock I rushed out, and forgot AGAIN to send it to myse

Looks like they’ve been together for some time.’Livvy would not disagree with the sentiment behind his thoughts, but she was a professional people watcher having spent many days (and nights) reading or day dreaming, but never letting life pass her by. Each p...

Abstractly familiar, why do we hate the abstract?

So, this has been on my mind some today. The current project is going to be complex. It involves some sections of more 'traditional' story telling, and some sections of abstractness that make no sense individually, yet find their footing when blended together.Today, for example, I wrote a more traditionally structured chapter, yet blended some of the abstractness into the structure. The chapter be

The abstract art of living and writing

Look at that, if I don't like manually force people to read my blog, no one seems to find this one. It is a rather comforting release of discomfort. While the origination, or genesis, of my writing 'career' should anyone choose to define the proclivity of my ramblings as either a) writing and/or b) a career, was in the variation of a blog - an article that detailed many weeks of reading and citing...

The days of the string

As Nesby moved forward with his theoretical work in string theory and quantum mechanics, there was an odd sense about the direction it had taken. Once postulated by string theory that there were a specific number of possible dimensions, the advanced mathematics that are the provenance of men like Nesby, those who revel in the afterglow of minute discovery, making the rest of the world seem to s...

So yesterday there were two topics I gave consideration to for the blog. Today I broach the second topic - giving away our product. Yes, writing is a product.It is tough to tell an artist what to do with their product, after all, the greatest thing about art is it is absolutely the product of he or she who creates the art. If I create a painting and decide to simply give it away to everyone, then

The cliche of life, love, death, and other redundancies

So, many of my blog posts are direct responses to questions, comments, and thoughts which I happen to see when perusing different writers groups. I find it interesting to make my thoughts on these topics via this blog as much as I do responding to individual posts,. the difference, of course, is that lengthy responses on a Facebook post tend to get glossed over, so I make longer responses known ri...

A weekend of post nihilistic libations and futuristic dystopian failures

Another weekend upon us and another weekend filled with activities that, as with many of us, involves that favorite lubricant; alcohol!Not entirely. Tonight we will be joining a “Retro Cocktail party” devised by a couple of friends from the yesteryear of high school. At one of our gatherings earlier this year, one of my friends quipped that it is too bad we no longer have ‘formal’ cocktail partie...
