just kinda fucking stupid not to give Lilly Wachowski carte blanche to make whatever the hell she wants after cooking up The Matrix, Bound, Speed Racer, etc. I hate it here.

had to put this on the backburner for forever and just cracked it open again. thought what I had written was only a drop in the bucket, but I realized it's actually about 25% of the word count goal. anyway, finishing this fucking thing actually seems achievable now - feels weird
me finally working on a novel I've been thinking about for 15 years, powered by pure spite
"is a hopeful crime novel still noir" is easily answered here by the fact that A Violent Masterpiece isn't pure noir, it's also partly/covertly hardboiled, with fallen characters playing detective in LA's wilderness. doesn't matter how dark a hardboiled story gets, it almost always allows for hope.

Just saw a thing where a director talked about taking out sex/nudity because audiences don’t want to see it. Here’s an idea: fuck the audience. I’m the chef & they’ll eat what I serve them and like it. *The audience* knows what they want? Why don’t you let a toddler drive a car next?
