He’s The Man…

Evidence of  just one of the gazillion reasons why I love his music, his bands, and what he stands for… Stone Gossard of Pearl Jam and BRAD, amongst other badass bands! Check out mlb.com for the clip of Stone throwing out the “First Pitch” and hear why he’s the man!

In light of the fact this it’s his birthday tomorrow, I will let these lyrics tell the story:

NO WAY – Pearl Jam – Stone Gossard *Composer

Here’s a token of my openness
Of my need to not disappear
How I’m feeling, so revealing to me
I found my mind too clear
I just need someone to be there for.. me
I just want someone to be there for.. me

All the static in my attic-a
Shoots down my side nerve
To the ocean of my platitudes
Longitudes, latitudes, it’s so absurd
I just need someone to be there for..
I just want someone to be there for..
Someone to be there for..

‘Cause I’ll stop trying to make a difference
I’m not trying to make a difference
I’ll stop trying to make a difference
No way
‘Cause I’ll stop trying to make a difference
I’m not trying to make a difference
I’ll stop trying to make a difference
No way

Ooh… Let’s call in an angel
Ooh… Let’s call in an angel
Ooh… Let’s call in an angel

‘Cause I’ll stop trying to make a difference
I’m not trying to make a difference
I’ll stop trying to make a difference
No way
Cause I’ll stop trying to make a difference
I’m not trying to make a difference
I’m not trying to make a difference
No way, no way

Keep rocking, Stoney and thank you!

Prep For RWA 2012

All year, the focus on RWA 2012 has been in high gear. The plan? Devour all necessary and unnecessary information for writing world domination! By the end of this year, at least one book out into the public domain for at all costs, there will be no regrets.

For sh*ts and giggles, here’s a minute list of the passions I cherish that have inspired all of my writing and/or will show up in novels to come. There’s no way to order them by importance or when they came into my world, it’s just impossible:

Pearl Jam, Depeche Mode, Beastie Boys, Maya Angelou, Duran Duran, Public Enemy, Jane Austen, Homer, J.D. Salinger, Rugby, Celts, Scots & Gaels, Iceland, Castles, Chocolate, Mom’s mac n cheese, Julie Garwood Novels

Time to tackle more edits.

Hello world!

“The waiting drove me mad, you’re finally here and I’m a mess!” — Pearl Jam

This is the zone where the music and words that touch my soul and move my spirit collide.

It will also be a link to my currently under construction website, that one day will house the words of my own upcoming books. May they one day thrive outside of my brain and into potential readers’ lives!
