Where art thou, Belona?

I finished reading Beauty Tips From Moose Jaw (spelled it right this time). And I loved it. Now I’m reading “How to be Canadian”, again written by Will Ferguson, though this time he shared the writing duties with his brother Ian. These guys are hilarious.

Eventually, I’ll get back to Dhalgren. I swear.

Still hammering away at ideas for Script #3 and getting Script #2 into the computer. Tomorrow I got a busy day. Gotta get an assignment for my T.V class typed up, and I have to input some revisions on two short stories. I’m hoping (still) to get those stories out to magazines this week. Though after reading a great discussion on Lou Anders Blog, http://www.louanders.com/blog.html I’m wondering if I should tweak the stories some more. They’re Sci Fi, and this discussion has got me all fired up. I have to admit though, the blog and ensuing comments did reaffirm some things for me. I think I’m on the right track with those short stories.
So after I do all that crap on the computer tomorrow (and laundry) I’m gonna head off to Worlds Biggest Books Store to find me copies of “A Scanner Darkly” by PKD and “Newton’s Wake” by Ken Macleod. Then I got class. Then I come home at 11pm and go straight to bed since I gotta get up at 5:30am for work.

April and May are looking good for…well….goodies. New books from Neal Asher, Cory Doctorow and Reprints of a couple of books co-authored by Neal Stephenson. Then there’s the Batman movie, Hitchhikers Guide movie, and I’m pretty sure some cd’s too. (Dave Matthews Band, NIN, Audioslave) I’m looking forward to being broke.
