I'm trying to get my PR and marketing together...yeah yeah yeah I know, I should've gotten it together months ago but hey man, I was busy self publishing. It will work out regardless. I've been hitting up a few local folks and a few not so local folks for marketing/advertising and reviews. I'm gonna hit the ground running next week once the copies get here and make it happen.
My mom and dad are really excited. My mom is taking a hlaf day on Tuesday so she can be home when the books arrive. I was gonna take the day off but they won't get to my parents' house until 4ish so I'll just leave an hour or two early. My dad is so excited to start slangin books. He has mad ideas and wants to place posters at every barber shop and salon he can find :) I love them so much. There's nothing like having family in your corner.
On another note, I'm not so lonely. Made a new friend finally :) Actually I always make friends but I'm so in my own world it never works out. This one seems cool. We shall see, relationships are...let's just queue the Janet Jackson classic "Can't B Good" (sidenote, i'm still sad imeem.com merged with myspace. i'll get back to posting songs in the next few weeks, just gotta find a site i like)
I'm in good spirits. I'm so thankful that things are coming together. I'm working on stuff for Transcend. and staying focused. I'm also gonna work on the cartoon I wrote for my sister Shantelle...man I love her. She stays lookin out for me and is so supportive :) I have to go through and edit and tweak a few scenes. I was thinking about starting film school in the Spring of 2011 but that might be too ambitious...I def need to be FOCC before I can get down with that. I would love to go full time and just immerse myself.
Song of the day is one of the chapter selections from my book : "Karma Police" - Radiohead
I'm reflective as hell since the publishing process is damn near complete. I love it when Thom Yorke hits "foooooor a minute there, I lost myself, I lost mysellllf" Ohhh man when he hits that and the bass in the background...gives me the shivers. In 2007 and 2008 I was lost as hell. 2009 was my sacrifice. 2010 is my redemption.
Forever siie,
