Face Down in the Filthy Streets

I never said I was a photographer, but here is another photo of the proof in front of my Royal 440.

Also, here is another track from The Sunlight Tapes. This selection is called "Face Down in the Filthy Streets". (music by Noot d'Noot)

It's Proof Day!

I apologize for the blurry pic, but the proof has arrived and despite this photo it looks great!!! The first run has been order and softback copies of Sunlight will be available starting May 25th (The birth date of Miles Davis). I will try to post a better image tonight...

An Epic Interview

There is a very indepth interview conducted by Father Luke over at in Mary Literary in the Ping Pong Section. Here is Hosho talking sharing his thoughts on the book:

"...it's been a strange journey for me. This book is as wide-open as I've ever been--the writing as pure as I've ever written...which is a little uncomfortable. Growing pains, i guess. Looking back through the manuscript I was, at times, embarrassed, at times shocked, sometimes indignant, sometime proud...but I've remained, strangely, moved by the book as a whole. I believe very much in this book, and the ambitious things it tries to accomplish."

You can read the entire interview here.
