About Me

My MySpace Music page is johnnyjustcantsing . Go there and you'll be well on your way to knowing what's important to me. We'll discuss that more below.
I'm a freelance writer working at building my portfolio and my income. With a view to the latter, I'm focusing on commercial work - sales letters, website copy, business plans, employee handbooks, that sort of thing. The Great American Novel can wait, as it always has. You can view my portfolio at johnwaterswright.com . And, you can use the button below to go to my LinkedIn profile and get more information about me. Then hire me, or recommend me to someone who can.
Other than that, I'm a recovering musician, currently in remission and playing w/ Jen Jared (Jen's MySpace Music page, which includes a few of our recordings, can be found here , and my MySpace Music page, which currently has some live tracks, can be found here ), and also the occasional blues gig w/ 8-Ball and the Breakers. Have played in the past with The Necro Tonz, The Barflies, Southern Discomfort, El Cid (which became Brutaljuice), Mars Needs Women, and the Sick Puppies. No, you haven't heard of most of these, and there's a reason. Someday I will form an instrumental band called "Johnny Can't Sing", again with reason. The logo will be a microphone with a red circle and slash, and we will be adored by millions.
Brash and opinionated, dorkily. When Ambrose Bierce defined certain as "mistaken at the top of one's lungs", he had me in mind. Trying to learn how to do something, anything, well enough to do it free-lance and maybe, someday, Lord willin' and the creek don't rise, as a consultant. The nobility of work is by most men exaggerated.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

A boy named Sue. Or someone who will buy me something from Amazon.

Mr. Big Stuff

When I was in college, I cultivated the habit of methodically hoarding all my change so that when I was broke (which was often), I could diligently roll it up and score a couple more packs of Winstons...

What REALLY happened on 9/11, but a long time ago in a galaxy far away

Readers of this blog (both of you) may recall a series of posts a while back, regarding governmental involvement in 9/11.  This would seem to have nothing to do with the fact that Wednesday night...
