Let's see, it's been awhile since I've written an entry. Here are the current stats.
Writing: Slow and steady, I am working on revising the novel. I am re-writing points of views so it's about re-shaping the way the story is being told. Not sure yet, if it's working but I'll just plug through until I've made a solid pass across the whole manuscript.
Health: Had my first appointment with a naturopathic doctor to figure out the pain that I've been dealing with. She's recommended a restrictive diet to weed out the possibility of food allergies and some herbs to help tonify organ functions. I am feeling positive and glad about being pro-active about my health. Let's see how it all sorts out.
Music: Went to see Blue October play live at Irving Plaza on Saturday. Their music live is so worth the price of a ticket! The group has some rabid fans but the best part of that is the ability to listen to the whole audience singing/shouting/carrying along with music. Frontman Justin Furstenfeld has such a great growl and when the music crescendoes, the audience is riding along with that wave. Irving Plaza was a bit too small for this group's crowd but I was able to grab a spot near an open door, that helped keep my claustrophobia at bay. His rendition of Bleed Out (from his new album) was so genuine and heartfelt that I could feel the intention of the song down to my toes. He also sang the first song that turned me onto this group Hate Me. I also wanted to mention the song Fear, the version that he sang at Irving gave me the chills. The song was sung with a full open voice..really beautifully done. I can't stop listening to their music. Hoorah!!
I think that's all I have for now. I have to get some sleep. Enjoy!!
I write and I paint. Then I try to articulate some coherent thoughts about the creative process on this blog. In between those moments of producing work, I take photos, listen to groovy music, watch indie movies, read (a lot), go hear live music (preferably someone that rocks), go to the theater to see a new play from time to time, watch sci-fi movies, and continue to cultivate my curiosity. Then I write about that too.
