hey! cool to hear from you. hope all is well on your side.. I've been doing great! Am just sad summer has ended quickly this year! :( keep in touch cheers!!
Hey! Been too long, how are you? I went to the Avatar 3D preview on Friday. It was wild, stunning visuals. I was a bit disappointed with the dialogue, but it looks amazing enough that I can ignore that. I'll definitely be lining up to see the full movie when it comes out in December. I'm super excited for lots of movies coming out soon - the trailer for Where The Wild Things Are is brilliant, can't wait for that one. Big Fan looks good even to someone who doesn't like football. The Wolfman trailer hasn't been made very well I don't think, but I love Benicio del Toro so I'm keen for that, too. And many more..... how about you?
wanted to shout out for hellbound by David McLean, the second entry in the workers in blood chapbook series - available now from Epic Rites Press. hellbound is quite possibly the coolest and tightest chapbook to ever emerge from the underground poetry scene. these poems are the literary equivalent of skin being stripped from the bone. check out samples at http://epicrites.typepad.com/epicritespress/hellbound-by-david-mclean.html. please support David McLean and Epic Rites Press by ordering your copy today at http://www.abyssgazesalso.com. best regards from everyone here at Epic Rites.
