Self promotion 
Sunday, February 12, 2006, 05:53 PM
Today I am working on uploading my poetry, along with descriptions of each poem written by John Anderson. His glowing comments are embarrassing to me, but I am also amazed at how in-touch he is with my work. Promotion is the difference between failure and success I guess, so I just grin and bear it.

My understanding is that the descriptions will be used to generate the RSS feed as well. The whole thing is fascinating, but I just want to get done with it. I need to get done with it. I have other projects waiting and I don't need this one to go to my head.

"High Art" 
Saturday, February 11, 2006, 10:06 AM
Watched the movie "High Art" last night. The acting was wonderful, characters believable, but I think it misses something. I get that the character Syd feels "connected" to the Ali Sheedy Character (July, Trudy? Something with a long U but it escapes me) but they fail to meaningfully develop the friendship, and the ending was a bit predictable. Still, all things considered, it's a worth-see, provided you aren't offended by a lesbian lifestyle. Still scratching my head about how it got on my Netflix list though? I sure don't remember adding it. Maybe 'cause of Ali though... I enjoy her in the edgier parts... (let's not play thermonuclear war).

Redesigning the site... up past midnight - YAWN!

Wow... lots to do, trying for an ecommerce site with ads and rss feeds. I want lots of poetry but still want to entice some book sales. It is 1:37 AM I just added this Blog page, but I think I'd better call it quits. So far I have to fix all the book pages, add all the poetry in my new db format with template functionality, and add all the other pages from archived versions of the web page. Glad John Anderson is arround to keep me going... And Whammy. But he will distract me to other projects... like the margethon page and a new page for his son the actor.
