Keali'i Reichel, Keola Beamer, Henry Kapono, Dennis Kamakahi, Brothers Cazimero and Na Leo Pilimehana rule my I-Pod!!!
I listen to pretty much everything. Cat Power - love her! Kua'ana, local Hawaiian band - love them! I'm still in love with Black Flag and Midnight Oil (RIP) and being a transplanted Aussie - I crave everything Australian. AC/DC - Bon Scott (RIP) but I'm not in love with trance music (sorry). I love Laura Nyro, Holidays on Ice, Queen, IZ, George Kahumoku Jr, HAPA, Edith Piaf, Jack Johnson, Kate Ceberano, Keali'i Reichel, Wendy Matthews, Hunters and Collectors and Amy Gilliom oh...and Keali'i Reichel and Keola Beamer. Did I mention Keali'i Reichel?
I still listen to Neil Diamond's Hot August Night religiously. His concert at the Greek Theater is still the best concert I ever saw.
And I love Hawaiian singers from way back...the one and the original Champagne Lady, Myra English takes me back to the islands like nobody can...except Keali'i Reichel!!!
Movies
Favorite all time movie: Diva. Also love anything with Rock and Doris (I have them all) and why oh why did they remake Yours, Mine and Ours? How do you top Lucille Ball and Henry Fonda? HOW?
You can't. 'nuff said.
I also love Blade Runner, Gladiator, Ben Hur, all the Spidey films, Harry Potter, Winter of our Dreams (love Judy Davis) and anything with Helen Mirren or Julie Walters gets me off the sofa and into the theaters.

AJ Llewellyn Woke up to hear the OUTRAGEOUS news that Michael Jackson's funeral cost the city of LA $3.2 million but we can't keep our libraries open!! Posted 4 hours ago from Twitter view more
About me: Hi, I'm A.J. Llewellyn and although my day job is to read other people's mostly hideous screenplays for a couple of studios, erotic fiction is my passion and my first book Phantom Lover was published by www.extasybooks.com on 9/15. It was a best seller and is now out in paperback along with the first sequel in the series,
Fly Me to The Moon.
The stunning cover art you see here is the brainchild of Martine Jardin who is the most amazing artist I've ever worked with.
So far there are 20 Phantom Lover books including The Forbidden Island, Summer Love, Rent Boy, My Hawaiian Song of Love, Beguiled, Stolen Magic: The Queen of Pentacles, (based on the tarot card for Extasy's tarot series, Diura, Island Bois and The Cannibal King's Husband...more to come...
There's also a gay vamp series, A Vampire in Waikiki, Shipwreck Bay, Beyond the Reef, Hanalei Moon, Ma Ma Loa and Wanted, a jailbreak book and I collaborated with the incredible DJ Manly on the Black Point series! So, you can see, I've been busy! So I am always at the computer when I'm not daydreaming, reading...or watching all kinds of stuff for inspiration.
