so...

Mark Twain once said something like "if you want to be a writer, you should write for free for a year and after that, if nobody wants to pay you, quit." That year, for me, started last month. That means I need to update my blog more. It also means I'm now an unpaid intern at the L magazine. They're actually letting me write for them...for free! Just like Mark Twain said! Check out my feature on artstar/pornstar Zak Smith/Zak Sabbath in the current issue. Siren Fest is tomorrow, and while I do not relish the idea of difficult to see and hear bands and debilitating thirst, the only liquid available being yucky things like "Up 7" that are being marketed to my hip, young, desperate self, I know I will probably end up drunk on the mini golf course with a few long lost childhood friends, anyway. Hopefully I'll have something at least a little music-related to write about then. In the meantime, I will post a couple of things I've written in the last little while.
