crikey!

It's hard being sexy and it's equally hard keeping up with a blog, but needs must, and words don't write themselves. Discovered an amazing website www.issuu.com, published some books on it I did. Anyway heres the link http://www.issuu.com/adamleejones. So far I've just done two books- poetry and something about moustaches. Going to scan my graphic novel and put that up too, it's helpful as it gives you an overview of what a physical book would look like. I really need to make a zine too, perhaps it's something which could manifest itself in the Collective project. Babylon!

8th January 2011

I seriously think I'm risking RSI writing 80-pages of text for this timeline, ah well, the stuff I've wrote makes me laugh so hopefully it'll make other people laugh too. Heres an example:

1933

In 1933 a man had a dream (no, not Martin Luther King) his name was Richard M. Hollingshead and his dream was to build a drive-in movie theatre. By combining his love of cars and his love of movies he achieved this dream. Nothing compares to the drive-in movie experience, not even siiting in by yourself with a tub of Haagen-Daaz crying about being dumped and watching a chick flick. We salute you Richard M. Hollingshead, no doubt many American teens have lost their virginity thanks to you. Now, time for me to combine my love of eating and my love of swimming...

Black Balloon


When I was 5 I was given a black balloon
We had matching smiles and matching faces
The bitter winter weakened its fragile frame upon my grasp
From a beautiful form came a horrid diseased creature
That black balloon changed while this one will forever remain
Farewell my black balloon...

All in a days work

Wrote my words or, if your posh, article for the Leeds-based zine The Debacle. I tell you, that poo lastnight didn't want to come out. I'm going to give it the nickname Collossus, if on the news they talk about a brown whale stranded in the River Thames, it won't be a frigging whale, it'll be my pal Collosus. I really need to give up the coffee, can't sleep lately, or when I do it isn't till silly o'clock.
