I like to write. I'm studying English at UC Santa Barbara. Click on one of the five links above to see the people, bands, shows, movies, and novels that have changed me significantly or that have, at the very least, stirred my soul. Ask me something.
There's gold beneath this sentence.
"In utter loneliness a writer tries to explain the inexplicable."
—John Steinbeck
"You have to be all too basely in love with yourself to write about yourself without shame. My only excuse is that I'm not writing for the same reason everyone else writes, that is, for the sake of the reader's praises."
—Fyodor Dostoevsky, The Adolescent
"A writer needs three things: experience, observation, and imagination. Any two of which—at times any one of which—can supply the lack of the others."
—William Faulkner
"One great part of every human existence is passed in a state which cannot be rendered sensible by the use of wideawake language, cutanddry grammar and goahead plot."
—James Joyce
At last, at last! A trailer—and a great one—for Tom Waits’ latest endeavor in film, SEVEN PSYCHOPATHS. May I say this one looks like a classic. What do you get when you put five crazy, old men and two deranged gals together? You get SEVEN PSYCHOPATHS. I hope this movie will be as good as the trailer makes it out to be. I’ll have to see come October.
