    Open the Floodgates!

    A lot of creative people are somewhat manic. Sadly I’m one of them. My creative bursts happen in cycles. I may furiously produce a hundred thousand words in one month, fifty-five thousand the next, and then ten thousand words for three months in a row.  My creative productivity has highs and lows. Like a lot of creative people I’m also…

    l’enfer, c’est les autres

    “Hell is other people” — Sartre Indeed, Sartre. Indeed. I was going to leave you with something more profound, better written and far more thought provoking, but the truth of the matter is I have nothing profound to say today. Have a great Monday!

    Some Interesting Facts

    Some interesting facts I’ve learned from watching my webstats… People don’t like to read entire threads or take a moment to search anything.

    Sexism in Magick

    I’d like to address an interesting phenomena that’s been bugging me as of late. And no – don’t take this post as me whining or screaming discrimination. I’m not.

    Perplexed…

    I’ve been reading a great deal lately about how the conservative right and the Libertarians want to get rid of public education. After all – that’s not where our government belongs!  How dare they want an educated populous!
