The Homes Tonight!!
johncabrera:
My new series premiered tonight at lockerz.com/thehomes
I really hope you’ll have a chance to watch it and give me your thoughts.
You guys! Check out this mini webseries. I say mini because it’s only 9 minutes, but it looks AWESOME. I already love the characters and where it’s going.

A Completely Anecdotal Opinion About African...
squee-gee:
I think most Black/African American women believe that all women should have the choice to have an abortion or not. And while abortion may not be a choice many of us would personally make, we understand why Black women need safe, legal, and affordable access to that choice. And I figure many of us have enough familiarity with the foster care system to understand our children are not...

You know how on Facebook your name is right there next to EVERYTHING you do?
I never get why people will still comment on something, then “close” the comment with their name.
“You know I love you!!!! -Jolanda”.
…Oh, I’m so glad you put that it was you Jolanda, had it not been for your PICTURE and your name RIGHT THERE I would not have known it was you.

On the spot once I came up with the name “Malibu” for myself for a radio show. Now they’re trying to get it to take off and I’m fretting that if it does, that’ll be my actual name. Malibu.
I can’t decide if I like it or now. I’d just go with Mazzy J, but that’s a name that sounds weird in Spanish, and this is a radio show for both.

Even a Haven has a dark side.
I use to live in this town in Guanajuato Mexico…a tiny town. But it was (is) the Haven for so many people that felt they couldn’t handle modern life any more. Sure we had a Starbuck’s, and a McDonald’s…but there were no neon signs and life consisted of being calm and painting.
Unless you were a teen, or did drugs. The dark side of this town was really really dark.

THIS PLACE IS A BUTT AND YOU ARE ALSO A BUTT.
To Laura (bis)
Thank you very much! I got some helpful info. I did some translation works in the past, as college assignments or for an office job I had, mostly into Italian which is obviously way easier (I learned the other languages I speak in school and I’m still struggling to achieve the proficiency I want). I agree that for a book having an editor is essential but what about more humble stuff, e.g....

Write Right.
I wrote something a few nights ago while completely wasted, then realized I sounded like an arrogant douchebag so I deleted it.
Because ONE post is going to keep you guys from judging me, right?
We’re so naive.
Anyway it’s Friday night, I’m getting the fuck out of here. This book isn’t gonna translate itself though, so tomorrow…I’ll be back.
