...nowadays you can only make a name for yourself as a critic if you pass out blowjobs like Madonna at the NBA All-star Game, or if you're a spiteful crank, heaping scorn on everything he sees, the kind of poison-tongued lard-encased asshole who refuses to review anything he enjoys because his praise mechanism was broken when his father wouldn't buy him an E-Z Bake oven for his tenth birthday.
Dennis Miller (The Rants, 1996)

Welcome to StarvingWriter.com…

A writer has to be hungry. And I’m not talking about cutting out carbs and sugars to achieve the thin angular frame of a supermodel. I mean hungry for adventure in strange new worlds, and for the camaraderie of others who know what it means to travel in…or create those worlds themselves.

This site showcases some of my own writing– mostly film scripts, but other pieces of poetry and fiction as well. My goal is simply to share and generate feedback from other readers and writers like myself.

Someday, perhaps, someone will read what’s showcased here and decide to throw a bunch of money in my direction, but until then I remain yours truly,

the Starving Writer

Old Typewriter
How can one distinguish one’s self from all the hack monkeys typing away out there? Good writing is a start, but a writer should have fashion sense as well.
