3 day novel writing contest/ done

day 2 in the van long after Jake had to bow out, and to tell the truth, this thing is really brutal to the brain, and body

my slackline shoes died, Mee-Mee threw them out, when the stink became over-whelming

i slept, and ate, and worked on this short book, 10 hours a day, or more

this is my writers back cover photo, paper and computer, pens, a touch of salt and pepper hair, surfboard on the wall. 65 pages, it's all i could do, the story was done, it finished itself, anything more, would seem like filler

when i novelize it, i can add the fluffy, the stretched sex scenes the random violence the sci-fi, the bikini girls, all the crap from TV, cartoon, comic books and other people's lives

short novel DONE, oh, yeah !!!!!

Dasheill was my illustrator, Mee-Mee took care of the kids and me, and feed me snacks

thnx,

Neil~

3 day novel contest

like some battling DJ's from some sad lonely universe~ Jake and I face off~

living the dream in the van at 12:00 am Saturday morning~ to begin the three day novel writing contest~ have you ever read~ they shoot horses don't they ?

under attack from mosquito's and closing time drunks and college girls looking for a refrigerator

chugging root beer and chewing gum~ a novel can never be written, they can't exist

Neil~7:52 am

sea four

i don't know why the photographers never show up for dawn patrol~

they do however show up en mass at sunset~ but by then they'll have missed the fog rolling over the jetty at Rialto beach

the vaporous woven trails of marine layer fogged candy

the first light to touch James Island

and this one staring at me~

the freaky stare of~

throw the damn stick human !

zero has learned to read waves and Snowflake stands upright and jumps over them

mushy barrels, la push

i sing Neil Young songs

baby barnacle slingshot

babbling brooks going off

la petite crab hor d'oeuvres

so tiny~ dead

sea-four

this is what the crows were screaming about

animals shed their fur and skins~

the ocean brings forth much death
