One moment my life is completely normal, even maybe a little bit great. I am enjoying a reception at the gallery where I work, listening to a local preparator tell a wide-eyed story about the horrors of shipping Damien Hirst sculptures. The exhibition around us is the result of months of hard work and dedication on my part and I am understandably proud of how it’s been received so far. It is a...
Writing James makes me feel like a crazy person.
Do guys even want to know what he’s like when he grows up? It’s kind of getting real up in here.
chainsawsavvy answered your question: I have a half full keg from an art event that’s now in my kitchen and I have to return it tomorrow. What are my options?
idk but your stove is super cute
That’s my portable dishwasher I have to roll out and hook it up to the sink haha. Although I am feeling pretty cool that you can see our Chemex coffee maker in this shot ala Ginsberg and Dylan....

“Don’t start with me,” I say, swatting his hand from my shoulder. “Just because everyone else thinks you’re so great doesn’t mean we’re going to be friends. Just go away. Just fucking leave me alone.”
“James…” His tone sounds mildly reprimanding and a little bit affectionate and so stupidly Turkish that all I can think is how dare he come here and make me feel this way again. How dare he try to...
To do:
Write wall text this morning, hang an exhibition this afternoon, go to Portland all day Friday for some meetings, run a symposium Saturday and Sunday, finish my short story Borderland Blues for The Slash Pile Anthology.

Sooooo… part of me is dying for this. And part of me would be absolutely heartbroken that they broke up. :\ I don’t know how to deal with this. :/
Yeah I feel like I broke something…but it should be fun to fix
Anonymous asked: I love your stories and as someone dipping her toes in the writing pool, I was just wondering... How much prep work do you do before you start writing a story? Do you do outlines/character bios/other things? Or do you just dive in? Any advice on the process? :)

Ghostie are you going to get James to make your decision for you? XDDD But really I’d love to read this… I am such a sucker for those the-ex-comes-back type of stories.
HAHA. I got a call on Friday and now have an unexpectedly amazing opportunity in Portland next year. I am still a bit amazed. Oregon wins this round. And...

Curatorial Practice: a love story
James is a young up and coming curator in the Portland Art scene. He’s just starting to get recognition for his thought provoking exhibitions at the small independent gallery he started working at last year. He likes his flat mates, his friends and the cute boy at the coffee shop down the street. Then one day his photographer ex-boyfriend shows up and everything he has worked so hard to establish...
