a weekend for short stories
I have a very short attention span when it comes to art, music, literature, et. al. Call it idea ADD. Lately I've been unable to finish a novel. I have numerous books lying around the house bookmarked about3/5 the way through. It's better I consume my idea meals in smalleasily digestible doses.
After having visited the pirate gear shoppe at 826 Valencia last month, it's more fulfulling browsing through Dave Eggers' collection of short stories. I actually understand the anti-Captain Rick propaganda.
The Vonnegut is just for fun. And I can thank the Serrach for introducing me to Bukowski and his drunken LA exploits.
