Actor, writer, software developer. Have ideas, will travel. Tuesday, March 02, 2010. Ankle Deep in the Black Bog of Writer's Block. Frankie and Johnny in the Claire de Lune is just about over. It's been a terrific run, and I feel like I've learned a lot as an actor. I am hoping for this last weekend to be the best yet. Just for the sake of having the topic of writing part of my evening regimen. Closes and I am able to commit more time, I will cut these notes up into little scraps of thoughts and paste th...

PandoraBlog: The Gardener: a peek into the story
http://vsmirk.blogspot.com/2010/03/gardener-peak-into-story.html
Actor, writer, software developer. Have ideas, will travel. Wednesday, March 10, 2010. The Gardener: a peek into the story. I hereby provide you an email I sent to a friend describing who this Gardener is and why she (? Is important in the story. Most of this will not make sense. Hey, thanks for the offer of help. While I do want to study our own many mythologies for my stories, I plan to kind of tear them like you might make confetti out of paper. Reattach them as with tape, or water for papier mache.

Challenges involved in designing, developing and maintaining software when everyone wants you to finish quickly and cheaply. Tuesday, September 19, 2006. The Evolution of the Internet. Have a friend who has been blogging for a while. He sent me his latest, http:/ gadgets.netscape.com/story/2006/09/17/make-an-ipod-case-from-a-milk-jug/. And asked me what I thought of Netscape's new incarnation. I thought I would post our conversation for general review. So what do you think of the "new" Netscape? Do you e...

Actor, writer, software developer. Have ideas, will travel. Monday, October 05, 2009. But I'm not too worried about it. The folks in the local office were not in support of this cap at all, and they unilaterally managed to get a generous singing bonus for me, and this in combination with a refinanced mortgage on my home will result in the freeing up of a fair bit of cash, which will help toward getting me out of debt (credit card debt) at last. Or at least that's what I tell myself. And it isn't one of t...

Actor, writer, software developer. Have ideas, will travel. Monday, October 19, 2009. Now I wonder what to wonder, and if wondering derails my wondering. Shall I wander round and wonder, or wait and wonder what to sing? Whether wandering withers wondering, well there's a thought to ponder. Shall I play it safe, and stay in place, forgetting what lies yonder? I think instead I'll lie in bed, and wonder 'bout this wondering. For it seems that I can't verify that I've fin'ly stopped my wondering.

Actor, writer, software developer. Have ideas, will travel. Monday, July 13, 2009. Vania 3.0 as explained to a friend. So had a friend ask me recently about my recent play, and the story behind it all. It'd been years since we'd seen each other, and we'd only reconnected for the first time in almost 10 years last - what? Can't remember exactly how he phrased it. And yet, the most critical part of getting past crippling depression is to relay on your support structure. Well, I recently reconnected with th...

Actor, writer, software developer. Have ideas, will travel. Friday, November 05, 2010. Thursday, November 4, 2010. Contemplation on a bench in the park on a cool autumn day and she reflects on her life and her entrances her exits and her hours no maybe days no maybe months or even years in this very seat in this park in years past and she wonders how to measure her life. So many ways to measure her life. Baby-blankets quilts backpacks rain-gear grunting man with garlic breath and whispers of love, and ch...

Actor, writer, software developer. Have ideas, will travel. Monday, January 25, 2010. It is not a failure. It is not a failure. It is not a failure. Okay, if I keep repeating that it's not a failure, then clearly I'm fighting the feeling that I've failed. So much for Vania 3.0, right? Acting, and poor life decision making, has managed to keep me from tackling this. Or maybe they are simply filling in the gap that is left from the writer's block. Or likely, there is some mixture of the two extremes. I cam...
