Writer... Name + where you're based: Swansea, Wales (where Dylan Thomas is from). What you make: - Writer of it all; novels of fiction & non-fiction, poetry, criticism, Gonzo Journalism/Violent Expression, and the odd birthday card. Also a Martial Arts Instructor: Kung-Fu, Kickboxing, Boxing. What you're trying to finish in the next 30 days: I JUST finished The Man Who Told The World: A sociopolitical manifesto, a psychospiritual self-help book, a miniature memoir of an injured child who became an inimitable man, a Saiyan spirit bomb powered by the collective unconsciousness’ spiritual awakening… A collection of Violent Expression chapters – think Thompson’s Generation of Swine – covering the 21st Century’s shit-smeared sycophancy toward the illusory Cults of celebrity/Satanism/global domination during emergencies of Climate/Politics/ Capitalism/ Living. And who Conducts this, and the past 20 centuries that have seen humanity razed to indentured servitude. The Man is mad as hell, rad as heaven, and he won’t digest the polarity of Bastardisation and Prostitution of mind, body, soul and spirit, without a bloodied grin, hopping in place like Bruce Lee, ready to defend Self and sacrosanctity of Earth and Heaven, from governmental assassins and the idiocy of the crowd. The one thing slowing you down right now: Emotional and bodily burnout/ in Traditional Chinese Medicine terms: a decade of Spleen and Liver Qi deficiency. What would make the next 90 days feel like a win: complete all post-creative tasks to release The Man Who Told The World through V13 Press ASAP I'm so excited to be part of a village. Always fancied the campfire and tipi kind of village, but this will do, as perhaps we can organise that. Good to be here. Good to be amidst artists. Hopeful to find some connection within this community.
