Space Bound
I have around three different posts that I’ve been working on recently that I have yet to finish. It’s not that I don’t want to. It’s not really that I have writer’s block. Things are coming to me every day and I’m finding a way to start things and never really finish them. A couple … Read more
This Groove is Fun.
This is the first GOTD (posting at all, for that matter) in quite some time. Like everyone who listens to radio I’m sure we’ve heard our fair share of “We Are Young” by Fun. I like that song well enough and I’m not into music the way that I’m into movies in that I don’t … Read more
Movin’ and Groovin’: The next adventure
I’ve had so many ideas regarding this site and like most ideas, only a handful come to fruition while others fall by the wayside. This strange amalgam of film criticism, poetry, flash fiction, rap recordings, etc. all seem crazier the more I think about it. There isn’t as much focus as I would have liked … Read more
“Live and die on this day” The Grey is a swift kick in the gut
I’m kind of reeling right now. Typically, I don’t write a review for a movie right after I’ve seen it. It takes some time for me to gather my thoughts on the film and decide not how much I did or didn’t like it, but what I think resonated the most for me about it. When … Read more
What I’m grooving on lately
Where have I been? I’m not really sure either but I’ve been busy. Between work, preparing things for my (hopefully soon) move to LA, some sickness and just not feeling like writing, I haven’t had much time for the blog. So, in what I hope is the beginning to a new string of fresh posts, I … Read more
How about some MAGICK in your Groove of the Day?
This is a special GOTD. First and foremost, it’s great music. Secondly, the lead singer of Thug Magick is an old friend of mine. I went to high school and played basketball with Tommy and I could have in no way guessed that this would be where he is right now. An even bigger surprise … Read more
Pieces of the Great Comic Book Movie assemble in The Avengers
Hollywood has been trying to make films and franchises based on comic book characters and stories for decades now with varying degrees of success. The best (The Dark Knight, Spider-Man 2) were creative benchmarks for the genre based on the ways they treated the characters and stories. However, while still being good movies, they never really … Read more
“Chestbursting Xenomorph” The finale to my rap trilogy
First, I just want to say that this has been an interesting experiment in many ways, including some that I didn’t expect to be an issue. It was a test just to write these words on a page, let alone record myself and throw it online where anyone and everyone can hear me do something … Read more
Groove of the Day. Me. Live. Rapping (I can’t believe this is happening and in public).
So, as promised, I uploaded my recordings of the rap verses I wrote. I threw them on YouTube which means My Kind of Groovy now has its own YouTube channel. I’m probably going to take greater advantage of this very soon and give you loving readers something more than rap verses. Either way, now you … Read more
A new hobby and great exercise- Rap Verse II
After writing that first verse the other day, things started to come into focus for me. I had some pretty good ideas for fiction, in general, and I also was able to reconstruct some wording that made everything sound a little better. In short, that rap verse worked for me. Hopefully it was enjoyable for … Read more
