bits and pieces of writing that weren't fully formed enough to fit into a poem or short story. These vignettes were littered all over journals, Post-It notes, napkins, park benches, small farm animals, etc. Then, &lt;a href="http://www.wecreaterevolution.org/"&gt;a friend&lt;/a&gt; introduced me to the wonderful photo-comic &lt;a href="http://www.asofterworld.com/"&gt;A Softer World&lt;/a&gt; and I knew this was the perfect format for them as they began to scratch, scream, and fornicate like excited rabbits. They needed a life of their own. So here it is. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I do all the writing, photography, and editing myself. The Closed Places will be updated &lt;s&gt;every Sunday and Thursday&lt;/s&gt; as often as I can manage it.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7848777762668390676/posts/default/8074576214658742955?v=2'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7848777762668390676/posts/default/8074576214658742955?v=2'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://theclosedplaces.blogspot.com/2007/01/about.html' title='about'/><author><name>kevin saint grey</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='26' height='32' src='http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1051/752303545_7c18a33ab9_o.jpg'/></author></entry></feed>
