I enjoyed the documentary Plandemic. It discusses petroleum-based drugs, Bill Gates, the CDC, the CIA's Operation Mockingbird, Alphabet (Google's parent corporation), and other things.
I read Alan Rossi's blog today. He is forty and doesn't use social media and has never used it except Twitter for a month it seems. I recommend his novel Mountain Road, Late at Night.
It's 9/11. I posted nonfiction titled "My 9/11 History" on Patreon in April. It required a membership to read, but recently I made my Patreon posts free. I'm probably not going to use Patreon anymore.
I finished two mandalas recently. I would like to publish a book of my mandalas one day.
I would buy a book of your art in a second and I think a lot of other people would as well. look forward to this being a reality 🖤
ReplyDeleteYou tweet about your writing with confidence. You seem to believe that you will finish a novel and that you will sell it. Where does that confidence come from?
ReplyDeleteI got a two-book contract for Trip and Leave Society in 2016, and for Taipei I got a contract for it before I wrote it too, in 2011. It came out in 2013. For my other books, I also had contracts before I wrote them, except the first two. For those two, I got confidence from, among other sources, my mom and some writing professors and classmates.
DeleteTao. I was wondering how you curate your selection for Muumuu House. I read it. A lot.
ReplyDeleteThanks for reading it. I talked about this some here a long time ago: https://htmlgiant.com/web-hype/muumuu-house/
DeleteTrying to find other places I've talked about this, I found this: https://htmlgiant.com/behind-the-scenes/my-experience-writing-for-muumuu-house/
Oh sweet. I have a book of stories coming out, and I'd love to send something to you for Muumuu House. I have a website/blog: https://neutralspaces.co/andrew_tran/
DeleteI think sharing links person to person is a great way to navigate internet.
ReplyDeleteWas wondering, are you familiar with John Maus?
I am not.
DeleteGood evening. I was wondering what you enjoyed about Plandemic? I haven't seen it yet.
ReplyDeleteI liked the information it conveyed and the way it conveyed it. I liked its hopeful ending.
DeleteThanks for linking to my blog. I would like to see the mandala book, too - I've used your mandalas for visual meditation before.
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome. How did you do visual meditation with my mandalas? Curious.
DeleteI found a good resolution image on the internet. Positioned my laptop at eye-level. Softened my gaze on the mandala to let the entire thing go slightly blurry/out-of-focus. Allowing different shapes/movements to emerge. After some period of that, I slowly focused on different aspects/areas, moving my gaze gently around. Intention being to focus on an aspect of the universe (the mandala) that speaks directly toward an awareness of the chaotic, spontaneous, unified existence of the same.
DeleteNice. I think I do that sometimes while working on mandalas.
DeleteI liked using this one https://arachne.cc/issues/02/assets/imgs/taolin-02.jpg for a variety of inexplicable reasons, but also because some of the faces made me feel sad, some amused.
ReplyDeleteI love seeing all the art you create with your unique mind. "I felt the toxic salami." Fantastic line. Is that a nod to food poisoning?
ReplyDeleteThank you. Yes, it is.
DeleteHey mate, would you ever consider releasing more voice recordings of your writing, similar to your audio files accompanying your Patreon posts? Your literal voice adds much to your authorial voice.
ReplyDeleteI hope you’ll still accept payment over Patreon — I feel like you should be compensated for your online output. All the best
I would consider that. I like hearing an author read their work too. After I hear the author once, I can hear them reading their work in their own voice when I read their writing, which I like.
