Walking the Dog

The fifth and last issue in the Kiewiczstein series I am writing is currently underway.  I want to sell the series as a heroic chronicle by the issue, but also leaving the option to buy it all in one hardcover.  The shortest issue is 41 pages and the longest is 52 pages.  The greatest challenge in writing this series was developing all of the character arcs, which I have resolved in an outline of everything that is going to come down on paper.  The rest of it will be daydreaming, using my senses, and concentrating along to the process of what it takes to write in iambic pentameter.  Writing the last 30 pages will be walking the dog, and it's going to happen very soon.

I started writing this series in September of 2016, a few months before my band The Innards broke up.  Needless to say, the book kept me very busy in my free moments for what either way be a hobby.  I conceptualized the story before I started working for Tim Hortons, in the summer of 2007.  Shortly after this period where I hit a peak in imagination (for which I would conceptualize the synopsis for 4 novels and 3 short stories), I hit a wall and my motivation and writing fell off where I did not pick up the pen again for a period of 5 years.

I want to share my first book, regardless that it is still being edited, to renew the interest of old readers and hopefully find new ones to engage too!  I made a link for it under 'Things that I like' section.  It's at the bottom of the list. **(edit.  no longer available after June 23, 2019)

Watching the wheel go round, or the Vanier parkway song

Hoe hoe hoe Down Vanier parkway The gift of love Is the apparent partay You can bust a nut On the sugar queen swirl Or give back to charity In the crackhead world If it’s broke, You fix it Simple and done But their time is a mission And they sell their buns Where a heart string creaks And Brook sold her pearls A thief sold his crack Then pimped out the girl Hoe hoe hoe Down Vanier parkway Could we ever find love And bring back Sunday? It’s now a confession Of too many crimes Indifference is deliverance When you watch people die An ambulance for Murphy A wagon for joe These are the homeless With no where to go. We see city taxes As a way to brighten our world So we stomp down on trash And ambitiously hurl Do we make the effort To show we are afraid What disgusts us distrusts us And they hide in the shade Could all this money Go to a wage? Prisons and shelters And services made? Can a sl...

Who said that we need education?

How many people in society have landed jobs respectively, in the field of study or education they pursued after high school? I am guessing it's not a very reassuring statistic you want to use in taking the realistic success rate of the post-secondary system. But to some degree, we still hold back our judgment and remain to our convictions that the education system is a beneficial aspect of our society. How could it be doing anything wrong? People are using their time productively and working, and learning. They are learning well. Or more exactly, their senses are being stimulated conductively to the coordination of their memories, and they are paying a lot of money to be responsible for anything they perceive. Of special consideration to keep their theory and practice within the moral high ground of the instructor. Regardless, a university is an icon representing values and virtues, that are seamlessly integrated into our perception of society. We learn history, how to be ...

Why is it Dark? A criticism of critics.

If you think a film is dark, could you elaborate on that?  A comedy can be dark, an action movie can be dark, a horror can hit the unexpected and be a surprisingly well lit, yet it is what it is, dark.  In all of these examples dark can be used to define things that are unalike each other.   You could say a comedy has self deprecating humour.  The action film is comically violent or excesses in profanity.  The horror dwells into the grotesque and violent imagery. Should you just assume what this means according to the genre, or do you find the criticism of saying a film is dark(and calling it a day) doesn’t cut it?  What do you do when a film reinvents a genre or blends genres in an original way?  My criticism of the YouTube film critics nowadays, is that some apply this term to define a movie in their review, and no one ever seems to call them out.  I know the average viewer doesn’t want garbage, so why accept this? Ever since Sin City(2005), and...
