Split

May 2nd, 2005

LUE (Life, the Universe, and Everything) update: in case you haven’t heard, A- and I have split, but we still talk, and I’ll be going to Oakland for her graduation. Incidentally, that will be the first time I’ll have seen her in person since it ended. We’ll see how I do. Anyway, her thesis received wonderful reviews from the thesis board, and I’m extremely proud of her.

I’ve been doing a lot of writing myself lately, most of which morphed into a fictional chronicle of our relationship. It’s currenlty being edited by a wonderful and brilliant writer friend, and in the interim, I’ve begun a second book, this one planned and plotted in advance. The first novella will be self-published via a local print-on-demand press, but I’m not sure of the timeline, so stay tuned. I suppose it depends on how much of it I have to re-work. I have no idea what I’m going to do with the second novel.

I also dug out my camera gear again (and upgraded the body), so I’m wandering around taking photographs as well. Quite possibly, there will be a third book comprised of short stories accompanying selected photographs. Also, if anyone’s interested, I’m considering trying my hand at modeled photos (usually I’m doing landscape, structural, or abstract), so let me know if you’d like to have your soul stolen.
