Greetings Faux Poets and Writer Ghosts,
Every single social interaction can be a fruitful transaction, a frictional detraction or a frivolous distraction. -Falsetto Prophet
"Be wary of those who cut your hair, into their barbaric barber eyes, it's best not to stare; sometimes your initial fallacious thoughts are not beyond repair--this scissor brandishing slasher, for you, might actually care." -FP
My guest today makes me grateful to have befriended her and confirms that being kind to a stranger, one who wields a pair of scissors close to your ear lobes and eyes, that is, can pay future dividends and just might save your goddamn life! Sweeney is a creative and uncaged thinker, a devoted listener, a magician when it comes to finding the right hue for the right hair, winning over the minds and hearts of those who treat her properly and slashing the throats of those who agitate her and test her better benevolent nature.
She is a former hobby plasterer, now she actually uses that lost art to cocoon and suffocate her Sweeney victims before disposing of them unceremoniously. She is so innovative with her former pursuit of 3-dimensional artwork, including most mediums, she is not picky on her libations of choice, but irrefutably enjoys a fancy top shelf one--if you can grasp that contradiction--and when she is not celebrating her birthday in style or traveling to Europe on secret missions, she can be found getting a psychic prophecy reading or attending thrash/mosh pit/rambunctious concerts. Lastly, her favorite color is fucking periwinkle! No nonsense there!
I call her Sweeney as that is such an apt appellation, but her name is Hayley, she is a cosmetologist with a proficient focus on hair coloring her insta is @hairmontress.
I'm a Rogue Poet, my poetry format is counter vogue, in case you didn't know it.
I am Faux Poe, your igniter host, you are my writer ghosts. WELCOME! you wired, inspired, miles from retired writers to: Lecture 4: Faux Poet: Proofreading Their Minds, Nevermind the Proof-- How to, for Your Reader, Write, Excite and Delight (Auditioning for Your Audience); (Gracious GuestLecture with Sweeney)
I'm a Rogue Poet, my classical poetry approach is counter vogue, in case you didn't know it. Do not concede the fight in your quest of writing to ignite!
-Faux Poe out!

*Wait Wait... Don't Tell Me! NPR's weekly news quiz hosted by Peter Sagal.
*Perfectionism is the refusal to accept any standard short of perfection, and as the American novelist John Updike noted: “Perfectionism is the enemy of creation.” Why? Perfectionism breaks your creative flow while your creating something new, be it a new column or a new product.
*Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street (often referred to simply as Sweeney Todd) is a 1979 musical with music and lyrics by Stephen Sondheim and book by Hugh Wheeler. It is based on the 1970 play Sweeney Todd by Christopher Bond. The character of Sweeney Todd first appeared in a Victorian penny dreadful titled The String of Pearls.
*Gladwell's father noted that Malcolm was an unusually single-minded and ambitious boy. When Malcolm was 11, his father, who was a professor of mathematics and engineering at the University of Waterloo, allowed him to wander around the offices at his university, which stoked the boy's interest in reading and libraries. The University of Waterloo granted Gladwell an honorary doctorate in 2007. In the spring of 1982, Gladwell interned with the National Journalism Center in Washington, D.C.[17] He graduated with a bachelor's degree in history from Trinity College of the University of Toronto, in 1984.
