Bukowski

I’ve been really digging poems by Charles Bukowski lately. I’ve been a fan of his short stories for a few years now, but I’m finally reading his poetry. I’m not big on poems, although I admire the skill it takes to write them. Not an easy thing.

What I love about Bukowski’s poems is they’re deep, and yet they’re not overly complicated. You don’t find yourself having to google to poem later to figure out what the hell he meant. I like that. They read like little short stories, too. Another plus.

He’s written so much. I wished I could be on break right now so I could read more.

Hey! I'm on Tumblr! (again)

You might recall me blogging about how I was on Tumblr and I wasn't sure what role it'd play when it came to my writing. Well, that one has turned into nothing but me posting and reblogging Doctor Who and Breaking Bad.

Way to be a winner, Mike.

Well, now I've made one that'll mostly focus on writing for the most part. You can check it out here. It'll probably be me doing mini-blogs and reblogging writerly things. I might talk about books here and there. Not quite sure.

I have no plans to abandon this blog right now. I know I lack at posting, but I still plan to keep it running. You might see more activity from me on the Tumblr page, because I'm on it a lot. So no worries if you don't want to follow the Tumblr account and just want to stick to here. And of course, you can always find me on Twitter. That is always your best bet to see new stuff from me, as I tend to blab a lot on there.

(oh... and if you're curious to see the disaster that has become my mdrabbles Tumblr, clickie here. Warning: it ain't pretty and I reblog on there tons. And if you're not caught up on Breaking Bad, then avoid it at all costs. Seriously. If you check it out and you're still catching up on the show... you're gonna have a bad day!)
