A Bit of A New Direction

So a little bit ago, I was looking at this book
and an idea hit me: I would like to try and make this blog a bit more of a multi media experience...more literature, film, and art as well as music. Also inspiring me is the late, great Andy Warhol. Not only do we share a birthday, he is one of my favorite artists because of his (to me anyway) brilliant ability to combine all those mediums and different versions of those mediums into one show. Anyway, so hopefully in the coming weeks, I hope to add a bit more of that aspect and feel here and that it goes off as smoothly as possible. I hope you all enjoy it! :-)
