Whenever I write a poem or flash fiction, I'm putting all of that money to work. Will it come back? (No...)

It only cost me like $60,000 in student loans to learn that the best art, writing, and music, transcend value.

Well well well if it is me in the land of blue skies after a full ass year

Almost two months out, I'm amazed that "ox" the live improvisational debut of Concrete Cedars (aka @bradleymckellip.bsky.social , Til Willis, and @chancedibben.bsky.social) is still finding people.

Evening reading.
Eight micro fictional stories revolving around crashes, and the people who handle them as another moment lived through, by my buddy, @chancedibben.bsky.social(Hit him up if you’d like a copy)

Thanks checking this one out bud! If you would like your own copy of this zine, send me an email at chance.dibben [at] gmail [dot] com. I've got plenty laying around!

"Seized... but not silenced." Today's edition of the Marion County Record in Kansas.

Wild that a publication I read for almost 20 year and helped shaped my sense of popular art, especially movies, would sputter its last breaths like this

I'm working on a few things, plus getting a stack of projects released. I've got a few manuscripts at the ready if anybody wants them, a photobook basically done, and tons of tunes nearing completion.

Write fast, edit slow.
