A huge thanks to the artists who helped me…to my friends who’ve stuck by me through this whole process…to my mom for telling me to put a book of poems out. Hard copies will be available at the 2/2/12 Can’t Hardly Wait screening in Montclair, NJ

Hi!

So, with the help of some really talented people, Read at the Show is sponsoring a screening of Can’t Hardly Wait in Montclair, NJ …at the Clearview Clairidge Cinemas. Below, you can check out the Facebook event, an article about the screening, and a flyer done by Abby Resko at Fearofbears.net.

Hi! So I was asked by a friend to participate in the One Day on Earth project. On 11/11/11, across the US, filmmakers set up at different locations to capture the stories and people in their corner of the world. I participated by being interviewed and also shot 2 of the interviews. Check it out:

It was my father’s truck…from when he’d contract out jobs.

A red box on the hardest tires that still afforded movement.

The inside smelled like pipe dope, old Band-Aids and gum.

When he finally gave it up, I put a mattress in the back. I added

some hollow, beaded curtains and some carpet on the floor…

and although it remained rickety and questionable, it was mine.

And when we went anywhere, as an exhaust pipe shook and

held to screws…we never worked with our hands. We knew

better than to figure out better things to do.

Hi- so below is the trailer for my new book, Fingerless Gloves. The manuscript is currently being sent around to agents in hopes of finding representation. I hope for a 2012 release for the book. I shot the trailer using an iPhone 4 and cut it in iMovie/Final Cut. The song is “This is Where I Live (acoustic)” by Mixtapes. Thanks so much for checking it out!

Fingerless Gloves is the story of Anton and James, two best friends. When James is mysteriously rushed to the hospital one Friday night, Anton spends the next 24 hours trying to figure out what happened. Along the way, Anton will confront old friends, shady acquaintances and his ex-girlfriend. In a story that moves from the streets of small town America to the pot-filled apartments on the outskirts of suburbia, Fingerless Gloves is a novel about the moments you must confront and the friends who live forever.
