RepairYour Mind

"I came to New York City for film school and (in seven years) I've written five books, made a movie, sold manicures and pedicures and served many many drinks. I earned a B.A. in English from Canisus College in 1994."

MICHAEL A. INTERNICOLA
THE BARTENDER			
i am the priest to the alcoholic. the eye candy for the fucks who want dick tempura. the envy to the bed, bath and beyond man. the brunch with the girlfriend while the game's on kind of man. the charmer with blue eyes who goofy wants to fuck. the punk charging money to the druggie. the rock star to the nerd. the bad boy to the good girl. the good boy to the bad girl. the free drink to the hussy with those big beautiful juicy tits. the ear for the lonely man coming off a twelve hour shift. the one step closer to the bums who enter and fuck up the john. the meet your match to that pretty kind of weakling. the i told you so to my ex old ladies. the cocksucker who use to fuck her and fuck her well i might add. the he could and should be doing better to the parents of the world. the working stiff who writes novels on the side for the god damn cunt. the monster to the woman who makes a face. i am the quiet one looking at the bottles. the one looking you up and down and thinking about having a smoke. i'm the one you always wonder about but never go there. the one you leave your shitty tips to. the one not saving anything for another day. i am the great henry miller's second chance at life. the writer who backs his ass this way. i am the bite after the chew. the one. don't fucking forget it.

Creativity Workshops
I am Vivian Glusman, Administrative Associate of the Creativity Workshop, founded by Master teachers Shelley Berc and Alejandro Fogel. I wanted to let you know about our upcoming workshops, including our December 8 - 11 and our Spring workshops in New York City and Barcelona, and our summer workshops in Europe (Crete, Prague, Bruges, Florence, Barcelona and Dublin).

Whether you are in business, teaching, art, or science, our workshop can help you discover and nurture your unique ways of expression and break through the fears and blocks that inhibit creativity. If you are an educator, you can take the workshop and earn 3 grad or undergrad University credits.

Founded in 1993, the Creativity Workshop is dedicated to teaching people about their creativity and how to spark it and use it in all aspects of life, work, and creative expression. We do this through a series of exercises developed by the founders and directors, Shelley Berc and Alejandro Fogel. In a non-competitive, nurturing atmosphere, our workshops develop creative skills, expanded sense perception, innovative problem solving, inspired brainstorming, and new ways of looking at life as exciting and transformative. Exercises include writing and drawing using visualization work, associative thinking, storytelling, collaborative writing and art, journey mapping, and body relaxation. The teachers talks are on the creative process, including how to develop daily practice, how to get over your fear of failure, how to inspire yourself by collaborating with others, and how to get through your creative blocks.

New York City workshops: $750, tuition only. European workshops: start at $1,700 for tuition and 9-night accommodations. Airfares are not included. The workshops are taught by Berc and Fogel or our staff of certified Creativity Workshop teachers. The only requirements for the Creativity Workshop are curiosity about the creative process and a sense of playfulness.

JEFFREY ALFIER, then in Europe with the Air Force, was rediscovering language -from how it might estrange or alienate or captivate and lead the reader into thought.

JEFFREY C. ALFIER
In Despair of Perfume
Communal places stifle un-said things
and enshroud in mists, the beckoning wants.
Now, with breach in limbic chambers forestalled,
only the avatars dart, abounding,
while something unnamed beseeches rumors.

Yet unbound wants mount gymnasium walls
seizing with opiate impunity,
as brazen as Athens' salt-born breath.
Here - recondite glances float across flesh…
satin masks for undulating ghosts.
