    • My final entry in this season's primetime scorecard (renewal for Castle  and Better Off Ted; cancellation for The Unusals) is Privileged. I don't think I've written about Privlleged before, but I was really pulling for this show. Like the first season of Dirty Sexy Money, Privileged was a primetime soap about the filthy rich; but the storytelling was grounded in honest portrayals of the ...
  • Blood Lovers, Part 7 ~Jimmy~ 4/19/2009

    April 19, 2009

    • There was nothing else to do but satisfy the skinny, creepy poontang for the third and last time. On his bed the bitch Sandy had cut Jimmy and herself above their genitalia then stuffed his lanky, half-soft piece inside of her wetness. What was she thinking? He hated blood stains on his Hilfiger sheets. Besides, Jimmy was sloshed and cranked-up, a type of reservoir dog in heat. Getting hard ...
  • A New Day

    January 21, 2009

    • Like millions of people worldwide, I watched the Inauguration yesterday.Not in its entirety, though I recorded it on my cable box, but on a computer screen, with work colleagues. It's hard for me to comprehend the positive change I've witnessed in this country. Perhaps that's because I spend much of my time in the past, writing fiction set in an America where segregation was enforced and Billie ...
  • Shameful Interview about writing

    December 23, 2008

    • My shameful interview about writing, click here. Here is a sample: What did you first read? How did you begin to write? Who were the first to read what you wrote?The first book I ever finished reading was "To A God Unknown", a kick-ass, paranoid menu by John Steinbeck. I began writing when my high school English teacher, Mrs. Hunt, gave me one choice of three; she could have the class ...

  • Derek Walcott and Barack Obama together

    November 9, 2008

    • Here, I hope, is the photograph that tipped me off. I'd love to know your thoughts on who will write President-Elect Obama's inaugural poem. They have less than three months to get it perfected...
  • Truth or Fiction: Voting by Memoir

    November 6, 2008

  • What does this remind you of?

    October 25, 2008

    • Passionate McCain supporters now claim that Senator Obama will lead this country into communism.  Earlier in the week McCain zealots attacked Obama on his socialism.  Socialism and communism are used as buzz-words by the overly-buzzed.  This sort of witch-hunting represents the worst kind of social fervor.  What it lacks in substance it makes up for in alarmist rhetoric.  What it lacks in ...
  • Getting it Right

    October 23, 2008

    • McCain and Palin are for the regular, normal, everyday Americans, the real people who work hard, go to church, pay their bills, and in particular, the regular Joes (not just plumbers) and the regular hockey/soccer/football/softball/t-ball-Moms who live in Pro-America.  I’m a little concerned that they are, therefore, not in favor of the exceptional, the well-healed, well-educated America.  ...
