Too Much, Not Enough (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The trilogy of books, Too Much/Not Enough, Might As Well Fly Away, and Cuz Somewhere Along The Line I Forgot My Self, are all drawn from a very sincere and heart-felt place, as has been all my work. Yet, and I think I am not alone in this, these 3 books, might be said to be my most "mature". This is because the language, themes, and perspectives, gathered from divorce, job-loss, etc., are the most far-reaching. Because as my vision and sense of "place" in the universe has grown, so has the portent of my poetry.

I seek for things, which can not Truly be written about, yet do so just the same. I am a "compelled" writer. And in order for me to "see" what i am thinking, I must write it. This book, as are the other two, are manifestations of how I "see" the world. And my place in it. Yet,...They are not limited to that. They gather up all I have seen and loved and hold them in my hand as I once did a broken-winged woodpecker in the streets of San Antonio, TX.

May they offer you and yours hope, grace, and joy. If so, pass it on. Love is not meant to be held, but let go of...

Autorenporträt

I've been writing for a very long time, what seems like my whole life, taking it seriously from the time I was about 11. Now, at 46, I think I may be starting to get the hang of it: Say what you feel, as passionately as you can, but always with an ear turned to those who are listening.
Most of my more serious work is done at live performances, which i do totally extemporaneously, channeling the mood of the room as my fingers play on the guitar. You can see some of that if you go to "my" website. (Open Mics Austin is a platform I created to showcase the Spoken Word scene here in Austin, TX. Only a small role in which i play.)
As far as I can tell what makes good writing is LOVE. Love ,plainly simply, and with no strings attached.
I put these words/books before you, not so much because I want something back from it, because I think and feel like I feel my bones and my soul, if you were to see the world, experience it like it do, for even a brief moment, you would walk away from that happier, more alive, compassionate and in tune with all those around you.
Peace, good will, and harmony. Let those be your guiding light.
Agape forever,
Scott Vanya
