Deep Thoughts on What is next...
As I think about recent success of a three-fer selling out my Pain Center book at my three very favorite stores (thank you!), and now putting out a long awaited 14th edition of the Davezine (1st in 10 years!), my mind is already turning to what is next…
Well, first off, The Bad Roommates Issue of Davezine does not have to be a stand-alone project. Many people have their stories, and intimated a desire to share their stories with me. Short of you actually doing your own zine (which I encourage! Seriously, I do not own the topic of bad roommates), I would love to collect some of these and put them in a more community centric version of the zine. I don’t often do that, but I really think this subject is bigger than me. If you feel like sharing your story and want to drop me a line, we can work it out.
I have a few ideas for the next Davezine. I want to revisit the feature article in the edition of the zine that I shelved in favor of the bad roommates thing, all about a blog I used to do which was called The Parochialist. But that got me to thinking that this subject was part of the much more complicated story of my solo musical career, which spanned over ten years in Baltimore. I have this thought of doing a deeper dive into my thoughts in performing and the reasons why I hung it up 8 years ago. I’d like to think this is interesting and maybe full of that whole honest personal zine goodness that the kids like…
Then there is NanoWrimo 2018 in November. I have an idea, loosely formed and hopefully brilliant and fun enough to get me through the 50 thousand words. My working title is “the Times of Clouds and Sun,” which I took from a recent weather report. While I do that for fun and writerly community, it also provides me with raw material to work on through the long months after the baseball season.
Anyway, this is all just a roundabout way of plugging the zine that I have just put out and the book that I am continuing to sell, both of which are available on two sites that are for some reason not connected to one another. Enjoy!
