It's funny... When one has a passion, "work" is one of the greatest pleasures. However, when the general understanding of the "VALUE" of that passion is entirely based on dollars, that passion and work is considered a "hobby," and it is thus treated as a leisure activity. A dedicated individual still finds time to work, although the most strenuous task is simply CARVING OUT TIME to be creative. This has been DIFFICULT lately... But not impossible...

"Zamano - Not For You" by Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)
[Hand cut collage, paint pen, gel pen, and felt pen on reclaimed cardboard.] Zamano Corp. takes maximum profit but gives less than a shit for how well YOU are doing. After all, as their adverts always say: "Zamano! It's not for you!" ---Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)

"Clueless..." by Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)
[Gel pen on paper with digital embellishments and color.] Obviously, these two creatures have issues. I'm not picking sides; I just wish that they'd make the effort to try to get along a little better (at least when they're out in public!) ---Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)

"You Never Give Me Your Money" by Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)

"Beneath the Quilt" by Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)

"DAY 55
Greetings computer screen. I'm surprised to find you here!
The last time we met, you were breathing heavy - bleeding - and suffering from a slight case of three bullets in your gut... But here you are... (Normally, when I END someone, they stay ENDED... So congrats...)
What's that? You've been waiting for ME... FOR ME!!! Nobody pulls one over on the FOOL. I AM the last laugh...
But my back hurts, so maybe we can do all of this tomorrow sometime? Maybe Sunday? Yeah... I'll be good by tomorrow. You just wait. Tomorrow. HIGH NOON. We'll finish this.... No. I'll get the door after you leave. Thanks...
Later!

"DAY 56
I am using my phone for tonight's entry because I'm too lazy to get the laptop set up...
For fun, I used a freebie "SPEECH-TO-TEXT" program to get the following jumble of words... Can you guess what I really said?
'My beard was red my beard is no longer red this is speech to text it is highly inaccurate soon I will take this and transfer it to a thing to type. art not art BP pop up pop up I laughed did you hear me laugh I love how I'm making nonsense noises and it's trying to interpret what I'm saying so here trying to figure out what this means Ella olohoo yeah it does not appear as though it does very well with just sound you have to use words so here we'll do some words elephant pita hand cushion ice cream vindaloo salad over easy egg soap foot paste tiny Archaic hypochondriac from Tunisia thank you for stopping by this is quite an experiment beep'
Quite inaccurate, I'm afraid, but that's okay. This is ALL an experiment...
For tomorrow, I'm planning on typing a giant list of songs for folks to play on random. It MIGHT require a two part entry... We'll find out tomorrow!
Later!!!

"DAY 58
I'd like to thank the Academy, my hairdresser, several members of the wait-staff at that diner that used to be inside the Newbury's store at the old Triangle Mall, the ghosts who float thru the room at night and give me inspiration, my wife, and Donkey Kong for all the love and support.
We are fast approaching 60 days of typing this nonsense onto a black screen (with white letters... If they were yellow instead of white, I'd almost be reliving the days when I did most of my computing on a monochrome Apple IIc home computer system. There are definitely days when I miss 1984...) For some reason, I'm still going. It ain't easy. There have been days when I've had absolutely NOTHING to say, but I said stuff anyway. WROTE stuff anyway. I'm not, technically, saying anything right now (even if I can "HEAR" what I'm writing in my head.... BRAINS ARE FUCKIN' WEIRD MAN! It's all goddam magick, and I don't think we will ever understand them completely...) We call it FREEWRITING when you just type (or write, if you're still into pen and paper...)
Hopefully, my fingers clicking on these keys isn't keeping my wife awake. She has to GO to work tomorrow. (I have to STAY to work, cuz my job is trying to keep a three-year-old granddaughter from killing herself or destroying the house. It's a very difficult job sometimes, especially when we consider the torture of having "baby shows" on the t.v. for eight or ten hours at a time... Almost wishing that an EMP would hit and take out all of the electricity! I'd enjoy the quiet for quite a while before the swarming mobs of looters busted into the house to steal our non-perishable food items...) I should call it a night so she (my wife, Mariah) can rest... LATER!!!

"DAY 59
This was a long day... Very long... Days are long, but the nights are short. Tuesday.
Fear is the mindkiller... I will face my fear... Pass the fuckin' spice, people.
For Valentine's Day, Mariah bought us tickets to see Duran Duran in June in Portland, Oregon! Duran Duran is quite good (for one of them "new wave" bands...)
It's a fragmented mind. Can't get it together. Can't get it together. Some days are tougher than others. Perhaps, after a bit of sleep, we'll be able to focus a bit more.
Got a couple bits of art done today, but not many... Not very many....
More tomorrow...

P.S. - DID YOU KNOW:
I have 13 books, either as author or editor! I've done poetry collections, a novella, edited books written by my uncle (his freaky, folk stories), and compiled several collections of short pieces from blog posts!
(Sorry! This is a lot!!!)
Here's a link to several books:
