words@moodyloner.com — Fri, 13 Jun 2008 18:38:36 GMT

I will be reading at the Burning Effigy Press Launch this weekend...

Burning Effigy Press is launching two new chapbooks: Nothing to Lose, a collection of short stories by Steve Vernon, and Poems for Addiction, Sex and Sanity, the first collection of poetry by Kate Leadbeater.

The official launch will include a feature reading by Leadbeater; host Monica S. Kuebler reading from Vernon's book; and additional readings by past/future BE authors including Gemma Files, Cynthia Gould, Jeff Cottrill, Timothy Carter, Violet Fodor, Adebe D.A., Dale Percy and, most important of all... ME!

When and where? I'm glad you asked!

That's my mom doing the gardening. Yes, for real. How awesome is that?

Do I have to do everything around here?

This is where I take off my glasses and run toward a phone booth.

Pedestrian Sunday

words@moodyloner.com — Tue, 20 Jun 2006 19:41:43 GMT

Hey, kids.

I and a bunch of other people will be reading this Sunday outside of UPrising Bookstore in Kensington market (168 Baldwin), between 1 and 3pm.

When I say "reading", I mean out loud. I know it's a bookstore an' all, but I'm not going to post about my plans to just sit there and read. That would be a world gone topsy-turvy!

So come on out and hear the now world-famous "Knitta Please" in person.

100 Downloads

words@moodyloner.com — Tue, 28 Mar 2006 17:48:14 GMT

Knitta, Please has just had it's 100th download, and it's only been on Coffeehouse for about 24 hours. I'm pretty pleased about that.

Thanks to everybody who's listened to it.

BIZMAR!

words@moodyloner.com — Mon, 27 Mar 2006 20:15:25 GMT

Bunnies and Insects and Zombies and Monkeys and Aliens and Robots, OH MY!

So BIZMAR is this contest by Young American Comics in which one submits a 2-page comic that includes one each of the above characters.

Well, bassringer and I submitted a comic to this year's BIZMAR, and guess what? We got accepted! w00t!

Expect it to be published "some time this summer".

I'll post more details as I get them.

I'm gonna be on the radio

words@moodyloner.com — Mon, 13 Mar 2006 04:56:22 GMT

This Tuesday, March 14th at 11pm I will be appearing on CIUT FM's Spoken Word show "HOWL", hosted by Nik Beat.

Listen in at 89.5 on your FM dial if you happen to live on the Toronto area.

I will be performing and perhaps we will listen to a little something from my upcoming Spoken Word CD, "Chicken Noodle Pants".

Speaking of which, don't forget to come to my CD release party on March 25th...

Here we are, here we are...

words@moodyloner.com — Sun, 05 Mar 2006 16:47:05 GMT

So I've decided to start this here non-band journal for those who aren't into the harsh, pounding dissonance.

So there.
