"creative goals"

i spoke with theresa today about our creative plans. she's gonna put out a cd. i got my chap-sketch-book. dandiggity over at san jose has his cd AND a chapbook to work on. jimmy and i are taking another design job: we're gonna work on a calendar. we good vietnamese folk are gonna bumrush your butts with poetry and hip hop. but the project that i'm really interested in is the one i'm doing with kenny, scott, andinh, and jelly. it's this journal experiment. i'll share more later. but i really want you to be a part of it. yes. you. you. you.

oh, and there's that whole theatre rice thing too, which is pretty damn cool.

for a couple nights already, jason and i have both been up into the wee hours writing in our respective corners of the apartment. he's usually writing about his play. i'm usually writing about my play. we're both writing plays for theatre rice. this is a nice situation because when i get tired, i just look over my shoulder and i see jason writing and that motivates me a little bit more. this reminds me a lot of when i lived with marques. there was a time when we both would stay up late late just working on our respective poster designs. creative environments are good. i'd like to live with more artists. but not those overly-self-involved-needy artists. they can annoy me. your art is you. don't be so self-conscious... i should be saying that to myself.
