Below ~ my local friends ~ you all rock~!
New Years 2007 Trace' (my best friend) and I ...we brought in the New Year in style!

I'd like to meet:


I like meeting creative, artistic people all over the world...as I like to sketch, paint and write myself...what do you do? Play music? Write songs? Paint ? Sing? Dance? Art? Hobbies? There's always something that makes us unique....tell me about yours?
...
My favorite quote is from Anais Nin,
Quote: "An Artist....is born with a mania to complete himself, to create himself.
He is so multiple and amorphous that his central self is constantly falling apart and is only recomposed by his work"

We are truly all artist in one way or another ! ~Ani~

A sketch I was inspired to remake...

My B-Day trip to Tahoe with Best Friend Trace'

Music:



Always "ROCK N ROLL" first ~no matter what I may be into at the moment ... heh heh

Woo Wah wah ha ah!

"From Bulletin post: List just 5 albums that changed your life"
(Since only could list 5...I listed the ones that opened new music doors for me...and led me to new music horizons...see below)

~ 1) Kiss: Alive (inspired me to go to concerts...1st orig Van Halen)
2) Grateful Dead: Fave' "Blues for Allah" (my 60's phase)
3) Pink Floyd: The Wall (Wow music can take you on a mind trip. I collected 9 plus albums from them)
4) Nirvana: Nevermind (Opened my world to a diff genre of music. I loved the whole Seattle music boom..Chris Cornell fr Soundgarden/Temple of the Dog; Alice In Chains!!! ; Pearl Jam)
5) Panterra: Cowboys from Hell (what more can I say...awesome guitar ...awesome singer...metal rock can be beautiful! The way the guitar and Phils voice sing together, especially on Cemetary Gates...melts my knees)



Books:

"What crazy ass poet are you?"
.."0"
Robert Browning
No one knows what the hell you are talking about and your work is full of creeps. You like writing for the hell of it and thought talent surpassed all things. You are devoted being, even if your poetry is wild, you are still not all that weird. You are a lover and will continue to be successful for many moons.
You can always read my latest work on my Edit Red Writer Profile

Your Personality Is
Rational (NT)
You are both logical and creative. You are full of ideas.
You are so rational that you analyze everything. This drives people a little crazy!
Intelligence is important to you. You always like to be around smart people.
In fact, you're often a little short with people who don't impress you mentally.
You seem distant to some - but it's usually because you're deep in thought.
Those who understand you best are fellow Rationals.
In love, you tend to approach things with logic. You seek a compatible mate - who is also very intelligent.
At work, you tend to gravitate toward idea building careers - like programming, medicine, or academia.
With others, you are very honest and direct. People often can't take your criticism well.
As far as your looks go, you're coasting on what you were born with. You think fashion is silly.
On weekends, you spend most of your time thinking, experimenting with new ideas, or learning new things. The Three Question Personality Test
CLIVE BARKER One of the best fantasy/horror writers I feel that only a handful really know ... ah yes ..they probably know him from the Hellraiser movies but there is so much more.... first good read ... Weaveworld Click for Review
STEPHEN KING fave "Salems Lot"and "The Shining" (original -as books-much scarier), but a newer book not much said about ..raised the hairs on the back of my neck..."Bag of Bones" Click for Review
ROBERT MCCAMMON is another author worth noting. CIO "Swan Song" Click for Review
ANNE RICE"The Witching Hour" (A review must read ..I totally agree!) Click for Review
and a lil off that path but a great read for those that wish they had a sight into the 60's era, sex, drugs and travelling europe via backpack .... JAMES A MICHENER"The Drifters" Click for Review
