Double-take is now being published online!

My literary novel, (see title of this blog) long neglected as I pursued various creative musical projects, is appearing in a series of installments in an obscure and eccentric online literary and cultural journal, Journal of Provincial Thinking. Can a movie deal be far behind? Yes, I'm afraid it might be very far behind...

Be that as it may, here is the current installment

Let's see: How long has it been?

Way long. The Land Shark contest is ancient history. Barack Obama has passed the midpoint of his first term. My oldest sister, Anne, died. And my novel, Double-take, is in the process of being published in installments in an eccentric online literary and cultural commentary magazine. Perhaps it's time to resume blogging...

Dr Morpheus rides again

Dr Morpheus, a musical project of Owen Scott, III, has moved to Round Two of the Land Shark Lager 2009 Battle of the Bands. We entered Murder USA, a highly satirical version of Surfin' USA, itself copied by the Beach Boys from Chuck Berry's classic Sweet Little Sixteen. Owen wrote the song for his unpublished novel, Double-take: A post 60's Adventure, a psychedelic mystery story set in Athens, GA. Competing in the Nashville bracket, one of three regional online voting competitions, Dr. Morpheus finished 4th out of about 125 bands whose submissions were selected for Round One. In Round Two, judges employed by the sponsors, Land Shark Lager, SonicBids, and Rhapsody, will pick 4 bands out of the top 20 in votes received to perform in a live concert in Nashville on Sept 24. Two other similar concerts will be held in the other two regional brackets, Chicago and Austin, TX. Highlights of each of the 12 bands' set will be posted on the Land Shark Rocks contest page for a final round of online voting to determine a Grand Prize winner.
