It's Been A Slice

Strikes and Gutters

Fiction -- getting it out, arch
-- subversion an excuse for lazyness

Non - Fiction -- truly put me in new places, how to quote, immersed in the real
-- too much to handle, too much for me to expect of my days, too much sacrifice.

Poetry -- Pushes a life to brand new lows. Not really. . . but at least there's a worthwhile independence, which I don't find in much Non-Fiction.

I've never been a Nationalist but I'm always thrilled when I see Canadian money in the movies. My new creed: Exclusively write about Canadian money in the movies; some sort of multi-platform experience where the listener is at the same time a reader, a viewer, and artist, if he or she chooses as much.

Form. I believe it's a Raymond Carver quote, one that I read years before I realized the differences experimentation and lazyness.
