Be Butch.
You know that feeling when you’ve been sitting in the dark for a long time – like ages? And, you are just sitting there thinking, “Why am I sitting in the dark? Why don’t I turn on a light? Light a candle? Fire up the smartphone? Something.” But, you can’t seem to do that. You … Read more
I’ve started writing short little poems on Twitter. To be a tweet, it must be 140 characters or less. This is creating a new kind of poetry. I’ve seen others play with it and I like it. Kind of ee cummings meets haiku. You have to be brief, and use space, punctuation, capitalization, and line … Read more

Hi everybody, What’s up? It’s one of those times where I want to say hi, want to write something brilliant, but I have no brilliance in me just now. Has this ever happened to you? That is, of course if I ever have brilliance in me. My point is… What is my point? Well, I … Read more
I broke my interviewing cherry with Kiyomi McCloskey from Hunter Valentine. Now, don’t worry. I already know that I am not a journalist (surprise!), nor do I write for Rolling Stone, so I decided to just talk to Kiyomi — and, of course, ask questions that I thought people who read my blog would be interested … Read more
The other day, I had a really neat encounter. I was in San Jose and headed to Monterey for the weekend. Before hitting the road, I had to handle some odds and ends, like picking up stuff from the pharmacy and cleaning up my super-scruffy hawk. I saw a salon near the CVS pharmacy I … Read more
Recently, I asked all of you to share the reasons why you love butches. It was a really interesting list and some of you suggested that I needed to compile it and share.
