Writer person Queer Elder I wanna be me when I grow up BA/Marian University MFA/Butler University Pronouns: He/him
To be clear , excerpts from my novels have been published
Just not the complete novels
I dunno
Why write another novel (my third) that won’t be published?
I might finish it (I’m 130 pages in)
I might not
This might be it
I’m trying to finish this novel (I’m 120 ages on why not).
It’s been a year
Why bother
No one would dare publish it even if I finished it
40 years ago today, INXS released 'Listen Like Thieves.' Their global breakthrough hit #1 in Australia and gave us “What You Need.” Four decades later, it’s back, remixed and remastered for a new generation.

I can’t seem to get beyond the surface of the end of my WIP. It feels like I’m just moving actors around on the stage , blocking the scene

Vocation .. I was saying I am terrified of swallowing an avocado pit, of having this big world growing inside me, of giving birth to a vocalization that would eat me, of choking on my own words that, once uttered, would commend me to the compost, hence my silence, even as I speak, so nothing grows.

I didn't watch any of the Charlie Kirk Memorial and Fireworks Extravaganza.
Did they address this classic moment from Turning Point USA's long history of Respecting Its Opponents or has that been completely written out of the story?
