So I just stumbled onto this author. . .Funny story actually. I turned on the t.v. at my mother's house and went to channel 13 to see if there where any cartoons that I could put on for the baby for a little while. Instead there was an interview with this guy T.C. Boyle on.
What caught my attention actually was that as soon as I turned it on, the guy interviewing Mr. Boyle had asked "So where did this sense of Freedom come from?" . . . And for those of you who know the person I am - the word "Freedom" usually is a key word that makes my ears stand up. lol.
Anyway, Mr. Boyle continues on to speak about his childhood and how his mother consistently allowed him to explore his creativity, and express himself freely. I related to this in a way, because in my own life my mother has always supported me even when my artistic/business ventures have been a little "over-board" or "wild".
Continuing on with the concept of wild, the purpose for Mr. Boyle's interview was related to the release of his book of short stories entitled "Wild Child". He was asked particularly about one short story from the book entitled "1,300 Rats" and his description of the story intrigued me as well.
As soon as the interview was over, I googled T.C. Boyle's name and started to read up on his life and some of his other accomplishments. I am looking into acquiring his book "Wild Child" as a start of really checking this guy out. I am definite that this is going to be a HUGE source of information in the future.
So, if you want to perhaps have some deeper insight into some of my future artwork, music, writings, etc. then you might want to check out T.C. Boyle because you know I am going to put some crazy flips on some of his ideas. He seems to be an extremely creative and insightful individual and you know I'm a big supporter of that.
Check out his book Wild Child here . . . Here are stories of personal apocalypses and the outrageous tragicomedy in seemingly ordinary lives, all delivered with the author's trademark explosive style.
