Cock plant is my aunt's and not for sale. Unless you offer her a lot of money.

My Interests

http://www.bpvalentine.com
Writer. Photographer. Knowing that my work is everything short of an actual piece of biology extracted from me. Whatever allows me to reach that goal interests me.
I am partner in a photography business with my talented and swell friend Mitzi Gordon. We're called Pyramid Photography. (www.pyramidphotography.com)
I am pulling together a culture and arts magazine that will be called KILL. It debuts in September. It'll have a lot of different points of view. All the usual suspects around me have their thumbs in it in one way or another.
It'll be grand. More info soon.

I'd like to meet:


Somebody who wants to risk and do something new rather than jerk off on their influences and/or creative fathers. Most artists fail to inspire anyway. Might as well suck trying to do it a little differently at least.

Music:

"It doesn't make sense, no. It's not convenient, no. It doesn't fit my plans, but I got that taste in my mouth again."
"If you hate something, then don't you do it, too."
"Sitting in heaven's high hitting an. All. Time. Low."
"Never again is what you swore the time before."
"If I wake up dead then I wake up just like any other day."
"It's just a game for us to play, win or lose it's hard to smile."
"You can care all you want."

Movies:


Park Chanwook. Paul Verhoeven. Igmar Bergman. Jean Pierre Melville.

Television:

The TV routine I picked up in the hospital has all but worn off. Still I look forward to more Prison Break. I've just watched two seasons of Lost on DVD and also Deadwood, which has the best TV character I've seen in Al Swearington.

Books:

Bradley is currently reading: The Road by Cormac McCarthy. I didn't know it was an Oprah selection, I swear.

Heroes:

My 8yr old nephew Zachary who got up with a bloody nose and started beating on the 5th grader who tripped him.
