EXECUTIVE HUB TRACKED ACROSS LIFESPAN?*



I sent back the proofs of "Martin" to David McLendon of Unsaid. My heart was pounding, racing, jumping. I've never written anything so personal. I've never felt this much anxiety and anticipation about a piece.

*It is bad blogging technique to use quotes from the neuroscience articles I read at work;therefore, there is a general louche, llaisserfaire feel about the thing; you do not know what to make of it; it is also unclear if I am bothered by the knowledge I am failing at blogging, but you have to assume I don't; perhaps you are wrong, perhaps it bothers me greatly and I am unable to stop.

Unsaid Six: Recipients of Joan Scott Memorial Fiction Award Announced!
Posted on January 30, 2012 by David McLendon

The recipients of the 2012 Joan Scott Memorial Fiction Award are Luke B. Goebel, Tom McCartan, Kate Wyer, and Matt Bell. The award is given annually in honor of Ms. Scott, whose life as a bookseller and community leader was one of modesty, dignity, integrity and grace. Each recipient of this award is a writer who exemplifies these laudable traits.



Does that mean we are the BEST modest writers of Unsaid! Haha.

People in Europe love my post about A Girl on a Motorcycle. They love the shit outta it. So do people in Brazil and Japan, but mostly Europeans. It's nice, to have a post loved the shit outta-- but that post? It has nothing to do with me and my presence on this Internet. I guess it does, I wrote it.

This is the larger thing, wtf about a presence(6. an invisible spirit felt to be nearby)on the Internet? Should I give a? I haven't for a while and that's obvious. I've stopped updating this tiny address. But, I have just as much right as you to clutter this Internet. It's a goddamn god-given right to clutter the Internet. I'm holding out this small corner, this tiny smog molecule in a dense sky. And I added another site. I thought, to hell with A Girl on a Motorcycle and those Europeans. I'll do something else, something good, something Kate Wyer. And then I stopped; I stopped updating that other smog, too.

"Take on a little contour, for heaven's sake"- Beckett's first play, a failure. A success for him to figure out what worked. The same, as always, a process.

I got two rejections today. I haven't had an acceptance in a long time. I actually don't want to think about how long, to actually give it a frame. I stopped submitting at all for some time, so I can't expect to get acceptances, now, right? Further demonstrated by


So I lied about stopping this one. I'll make the other one look pretty and professional, a writer needs a professional(writers are very business-like, conferences, name tags)image or place to say, "This is my life's work, take me seriously. I need you."

I need you.
