hey nineteen

kay for real. tomorrow i am going through emails. they are stacking up badly. i suddenly remember a guy emailed me from mexico? or was he just writing in spanish? he was raving up Espeluznante (spanish translation version of my book) and said he was interested in making a figure out of my character. damn! these are the types of emails that just sit. not good! must go through the flagged ones tomorrow. at least…twenty of them. knock that down. yes. that’s a good number. no. nineteen. yeah, better. (that’s not some kind of sexy innuendo. i just really don’t care for even numbers.)

Espeluznante — a great palabra. I thought I could click on that and go somewhere to find the book, pero nada. So, we can find that where?

off the bat, looks like it can be found here and here

It costs 500% more at one site. I will buy it at the cheaper place as it seems you will be getting no fee from either location. I understand this is the book that you had publisher deficiency problems related to the distribution and promotion. That is very sad, yet very common.
Now, just help me with this, because the idea is not clear: Is there a bilingual version only, or are there Spanish and English versions?
I would buy the Spanish only if that exists. Gracias.

in one place it may list in pesos? dunno. selector is mx. and there is only spanish and english. spanish one is a good translation, tho printing job is inferior a bit. but hey even the first one should have had better paper, my pub co skimped. heavy blacks needed a whiter and more solid paper.

OK, if the English one has the better quality printing, even though not spectacular, I will seek out that one.
Perhaps a really dumb question, but is there no way you can repossess the rights and self-publish?
It’s so frustrating when art gets mangled by commerce. Of course, art knows how to return the compliment!

About

i’m a fly in the blouse of god. i’m a flake of fishscale in the house of nod. i’m a citizen making a zookeeper’s arrest because i saw a monkey snatch a homo sapien’s job.

just so that’s clear. anyway, i’m writing here because the place where most are used to seeing me is a demanding place. it demands a certain character, it isn’t the place for all i’d share, and in general it contains many limits on my expression. this is not a complaint, i am the one who arranged those limits when i made the blog, and i did it with full awareness. in my bio at that blog, i talked about a “journey.” and that’s what that blog was made for. and that is what purpose it has served.

but of course, that’s not all i am. and i don’t know all that i am. but if you’re new to the joint, and we’re gonna throw around labels, i suppose we could use artist. that’s the one that feels least binding to me. and of course “nezua.” that’s the one i answer to out here. and out here, i’ll just be writing and musing, and posting fotos and video. i don’t plan to be following the news as much here, so please don’t expect that. i’m feeling a little burnt on it. this place is more for my artistic expression/experiments, and maybe just chronicling my life. we’ll see what happens.
