MR. EYBYANINCH BOOK 2 PAGE 16

We've broken the halfway threshold. I read Gary Groth's 30-page 'book review' of Ralph Steadman's The Joke's Over: Bruised Memories: Gonzo, Hunter S. Thompson, and Me. I was really looking forward to it. It's a little bit more book report than the criticism I was hoping for, but it was still worth reading. Groth/Steadman is a great pairing no matter how slice it. The link is to an excerpt. Anyway, the review got me thinking about Steadman's Sigmund Freud, a book I haven't seen in ten years.

ATTENTION! Now I'm going to watch Ralph Bakshi's Wizards. The time has come.

Then I'll probably have to listen to DJ Muggs vs. GZA Grandmasters that samples the movie dialogue for the Opening track.

Take that, Jewel Eyes. Maybe I'll set up a new goal of making it to page 20 by Sunday.

In the background tonight, is this collection of clips of and about Robert Anton Wilson. I was discussing Wilson the other day (and two (six) of the books that changed my life: The Illuminatus! Trilogy and the Cosmic Trigger Trilogy) and remembered the two times I almost went to see him speak but never did. YouTube cures wad ails ya.

Hey, you know what's really nice? Setting realistic goals and then finding yourself well on the way to accomplishing them. My goal was to get to page 15 by the end of July. I still have four and a half days and only two pages to do. Someone better be preparing my Resty Laurels.

It turns out that a little Inuit throat singing goes a long way.

This is the Detroit Techno Documentary I've had on in the background.

You know what I forgot all about? My 100 Pages in 141 Days! I was going to try to finish 100 pages between January 18 and June 6. Well, I did terribly for a while there. There are a number of pages I finished but scrapped, so those don't count. There was a lot of time spent on one thing I think I've abandoned. And some time spent on a lot of things I've abandoned. But there was a flurry of activity toward the end, that resulted in EMAW #10 and Mr. Eybyaninch #1. How did I do?

65 pages in 141 days, plus cover images. That's an average of nearly a page every two days.

Anyway, it's time for a new, less ambitious goal! 20 Pages in 55 Days! That's what I have to do to get Mr. Eybyaninch Book 2 done for SPX. Is it doable? I think so. That's nearly a page every three days, after all. Actually, I'm going to do a light June-esque flurry so I can have Page 15 done before August.

I also want to get back to Kaiju Jugoruma. Hopefully I'll have the next issue of that ready for SPX. My fan should be thrilled.

Oh right! Pages. I'm supposed to be posting PAGES! Not railing into the darkness about the historical inadequacies of Tom Hanks movies.
