welcome.

i write this ( in all lower case because it seems like the trendy thing to do) while i am in the written throes of pg. 19 of a novel that's been lodged in my subconscious for far too long.

the idea here is that i involve you, the reader, in my writing process. it struck me that so few writers, aspiring or otherwise, engage an audience while they wade through what is an incredibly insecure process.

i've decided to take account of that insecurity and share with all of you that, more often than not, i want to self-flagellate after a night of writing.(coincidentally , i also want to do this after watching any john woo movie, having the smell of curry enter my nostrils, catching a glimpse of ann coulter's adam's apple, going to tucson, the list goes on and on...)

i will post five pages a week and will do so until i'm finished or the self-flagellation becomes too much to bear. so please, read, comment, criticize, heap praise, enjoy.

cl.
