I gotta check out Robert Kelly.

I just started collecting Black Sparrow Press books. So far, most of them are bad. Or just not what I am into. I mean, I love all the Bukowski, Mrabet, and Fante. But I cant seem to get into anything else in the BSP library I can get into. The books look beautiful. But...I dont know... Do any of...

I still love Bukowskis writing. But I am not as obsessed. My tastes have softened. I love Garrison Keillor and Richard Hugo just as much as I love Bukowski. I even have a new favorite book that is not written by Bukowski. Ham On Rye is now a close second to Crapallachia by Scott McClanahan. I...

Okay. I am thinking of lowering the price to twenty bucks. Anyone interested?

My beards been hiding my double chin since I was seventeen. Its been hip, then unhip, then hip again many times. I live in Vermont. So here...yeah, its hipster to the max.

I have a first edition of Earth Rose by Steve Richmond. The forward is by Bukowski. I'm thinking thirty bucks, plus shipping and handling. Pay via paypal. I don't know why I put myself in the picture. Does that beard make you want to buy things? It makes me want to sell things.

I have books.

Some authors I think Bukowski fans would like. Benjamin Whitmer, author Cry Father and Pike. Chris Offutt. Sam Pink, especialy his book Person. J David Osborne.

Thanks for this. Lots of good recommendations. Especially curious about Miranda July.

I don't read enough women. Does any one here have any female authors they would recommend to a Bukowski fan like myself?

I think Bottle Smoke has better covers that BSP. You could check out Lazy Fascist Press.

Thanks man. Scumming butts takes character, in my not so humble opinion. Other great writer: James Crumley. Jim Harrison. Larry Brown. SaFranko. Chelsea Handler. Yeah, I said. ARE YOU THERE VODKA? ITS ME, CHELSEA is a great book. Shit made me laugh. Not a good writer though.

SAM PINK. MY GOD! READ SAM PINK! His book, PERSON, is my favorite. Get that. He also has a great book of poetry, I WANT TO CLONE MYSELF THEN KILL THE CLONE AND EAT IT. So good.

THE OUTSIDERS is a YA book by SE Hinton. It was also a movie staring Ralph Machio and Emelio Estev and Tom Cruise when they were really young. Its a classic rich kid vs poor kid tale. The Hamptons is a rich community on the east end of Long Island. That is where I grew up. I was considered a...

I'm a caveman. These typing gizmos confuse me. I don't know how to put up a picture on this forum. It's embarrassing. But here's a link to my stuff. DRINKING UNTIL MORNING was published by Black Coffee Press. It's dirty realism, a term I hate. The second book, THE CRUD MASTERS, is a Bizarro...

This is why I love this site. These pics are great.

I've been listening to a lot of ODD FUTURE. Anyone into these guys? I got a thing for juvenile deliquency. I don't know why.

Self Promotion 101: Don't go onto a forum only to promote yourself. It pisses people off. I have a couple of books out, but I don't use this forum to promote them. Ok, I might have mentioned them a couple of times, but I was visiting this site for years before I got published, so it's chill...

THE SAME RIVER TWICE, by Chris Offutt. It's one of the best books I have read in a while.

I hated this film. The characters were flat and boring. The monster-aliens looked cheesy and generic. The concept was pretentious. I like the captain though. All time favorite pick-up line: "Are you a robot?"

Has anyone here read Jim Harrison? He is most popular for his novella LEGENDS OF THE FALL. Harrison also wrote another book called WOMAN LIT BY FIREFLIES. It a collection of three novellas. The first is called BROWN DOG. The narrorator, Brown Dog, reminds me of Bukowski. It's amazing. Has anyone...

Hey guys, I just interviewed Mark SaFranko. It's on my site. Check it out. http://hiscockismoney.blogspot.com/2012/01/mark-safranko.html

You dont have to turn on your tv to see how obsessed our culture is with celebritys, you can go on facebook, or look at how young people dress, or just go to a concert and see how people act, or watch the news, or just listen to people Gossip about their lives.
