I promised you there would be a surprise on January 31st! I'm revealing the title of my upcoming book!
The name of the book is Kinetic Sculpture. (UPDATED 4/19/2013: The book is on its way very soon at long last, but the title may or may not have changed! We'll see.) It holds a great deal of meaning for me, and I'll talk more about that as the months go by leading up to its release.
Those that have been following me over the years know that there were other book titles in the works, including Unfiltered, Libra Lace, Fatal Release, Heirloom Crimes, and Wildfire, but as time went by and my body of work grew, those titles no longer fit as perfectly as they once did. They fit pieces of my life, but this collection is representative of the whole journey, and I needed something broader and still just as specific to my vision.
Kinetic Sculpture, to me, feels like an alive, electric, moving immortalization of all of those titles and then some. And after so many years of pouring my life experience into poetic form, I can't think of a better phrase to represent my first official release.
I'm working on extras and goodies, as well as the cover design and the final lineup as far as which poems to include. If you've got favorites that you really want in the book, please comment and I'll be sure to include them for you. I won't leave out any poem that you personally request, and that's a promise! I'm going to be including you even more as we get closer to the final product, posting pictures of the design process and getting your input on some of the more important decisions too.
I'd like to do a special pre-order the Autographed Deluxe Edition before the official release date and give those who order some extras that no one else will ever get! I really want to give something special to the people who have been with me the longest, and the ones who are the most passionate. I value you more than you know, and this book is my gift to you.
If you enjoy what I do, please subscribe to my email updates and spread the word. My dream is to be able to do this full time, and to share every step of the journey with you. The more dreamers we can add to our circle, the closer we can get to making that a reality. Thank you for your never-ending support!
