It's been awhile since my last post. Since then I have seen Alice in Wonderland by Tim Burton. My feeling on it are still haven't made themselves clear, but I did enjoy it. My book collection has also grown of course, with the purchases of The Forgotten Garden, Soulless, Tales of H.P. Lovecraft, and This Book Has Issues: Adventures in Popular Psychology. And most recently (within the last 4 days) I have obtained two amazing Tim Burton books, Tim Burton and The Melancholy Death of Oyster Boy: and Other Stories. These are now part of my most prized books.
I have ditched What the Dog Saw for a bit but I have managed to read Soulless, which was phenomenal and I'm super excited for the sequel, Changless, that comes out tomorrow. I also read most of the short stories in the Tales of H.P. Lovecraft and last night I started A Happy Man, which is part of the Contemporary Art of Novellas Series and I already love it.I'll be done with it before I even have Changless in my possession. I don't know where my sudden ability to constantly find time to read came from but I'm loving it! And I absolutely love when Kenny and I sit in the living room, him doing homework and me reading in the big comfy chair, it's such a nice feeling. I have also picked up my writing notebook again all of the reading and all of the wacky emotions I'm going through due to past and current events in my life make for some inspiration. I'm also thinking of entering a short story contest, especially after reading past winners who were only moderately well done. It makes me feel like I have a chance at winning that $150 or $500 prize, or even the $1000.
This past week I went and saw the Tim Burton exhibit at MoMA, but that gets it's own entry, which will be coming soon.
Ta ta for now!
