500 Words Per Day: Day 8

1.18.15 Day 8 “What am I doing here?” is the most common question running through my head. Second is, “How did I get here?” I wonder if anyone feels comfortable in their skin. I don’t. I don’t see how it’s my skin at all. I was exercising in my hotel room the other night, listening …

500 Words Per Day: Week 1

I’m writing 500 words per day. I don’t know what about yet but I suspect I’ll figure it out as I go. How can I be a writer who doesn’t write every day? Every situation is a lesson. I’m in the middle of the classroom with the bastard teacher that will never pass me anyway. …

500 Words Per Day: Day 6

1.16.15 Day 6 Sitting in the open air lounge at Cherengin Hills in Janda Baik getting eaten alive by misquotes. And not little bitch Michigan misquotes, these are the indigenous mountain variety that eat steaks in between sucking my blood. Fine, I brought my lavender essential oil, I’m not worried about a few bites. But …

Brand Consulting: Let’s Do Work

I started my first business in 3rd grade selling hand-made bookmarks to my classmates. I was making a killing until my accountant ratted me out because I didn’t want to date her. I’ve been forming, pitching, and building ideas ever since. I don’t think entrepreneurs are better than anyone else, I just think they have …

500 Words Per Day: Day 5

1.15.15 Day 5 Twice today I had good thoughts and I did my normal routine, “Alright remember this you little shit. Say it over and over and memorize it. Keep saying it. You don’t need to write it down if you keep repeating. It’s good for your brain.” And three minutes later both thoughts were …

1.14.15 Day 4 Which story would you rather read? Story 1 Day 4 and I’m already dreading this writing process. I hate sharing these journals because I feel like they are not very useful to anyone other than myself. I’m having my doubts about this 30 day project. Story 2 It’s day 4 and I’m …

500 Words Per Day: Day 3

1.13.15 Day 3 Just finished meditating. That puts me at about day 175 or so. Just thought about what I was going to write the whole time. Seems like a distraction but I actually find it quite stimulating to have something specific to concentrate on. Feels like coffee. I want to write in my journal …

500 Words Per Day: Day 2

1.12.15 Day 2 If I wanted to have a real conversation with someone, where would I start? Would it matter that I can’t yet have completely honest conversations with myself? I don’t like getting down on myself because it’s becoming trendy. If I say I am bad at something that is supposed to make it …

Detroit City Photography

Spent the day in Detroit with my brother James taking pictures. I told him I wanted “urban” so he took me to Eastern Market and I’m pretty sure it is where the word urban was invented. Made me laugh at myself for referring to Southern California as an urban environment. Detroit has true warehouses and …
