I have no reasons other than life stuff getting in the way, and the stuff I've been writing for the last couple weeks being ill-suited for posting here. In addition to writing on the grander scale of shit I'm working on, I plan to just sit here and write for a bit once a week just to keep sharp, and to have something for my friends and family that read this blog, to read :)
I'm writing a thing on Ayn Rand right now. Just a response to major quotes and philosophies in order to satiate my hunger for, seriously, writing a 9,000 page book called Ayn Rand Was A Stupid Person. For those of you who don't know, the book I'm writing right now that I started this year, Eating the Ram's Head and Fig Leaf, is generally about the virtue I see in Humanity, and a great deal of it is spent on what I see as antivirtues existing in Humanity, notably personified in a character based on Ayn Rand and her "Virtue of Selfishness" horseshit that pervades humanity to this day, not to say that it's genesis was when Ayn Rand opened her ugly, misshapen face to add fake-philisophical depth to greed...I'm getting ahead of myself, and I really dig that line and am figuring out where to squish it into the thing I'm working on, so I'm going to start stopping...
BIG PICTURE:
Because I can't just be putting whole chapters of my books up here, and because some stuff is just the start of something bigger that unless you're in my head and see that it's leading up to something you probably won't enjoy it in all it's unlettered glory, aside from excerpts and the like, I'm going to be doing a lot more essays of things I have to write about, and do, just don't post....but...post them with regularity.
Like Rick Perry says something, Michelle Bachmann says something, Al Sharpton says something, Penn Jillette says something, Ayn Rand says something before she takes her rightful place decomposing underground, or I read, play, watch, or listen to a piece of art that I feel I should analyze, or think of a topic to cover, I'll write about it here....in addition to writing about writing, and writing about my books and putting excerpts from them and writing about those, along with maybe a short story here and there, that's what it will take to keep posting here with regularity, so I hope you all enjoy :)
It really does mean the world to me that any of you out there read this, and it really is nice when some of you talk to me in the real world or otherwise about this stuff. Thank you all for whatever your contribution to this is, even if it's just reading, it's more than I could ever ask for.
That's enough love for now. Tune in in just a bit for, believe it or not, much more Ayn Rand hatred.
