#BettieBangs #Pigtails Editing Mojo & Instagram Filters at #EugeneOneillsPub


For some reason, I get into a real rhythm at Eugene O'Neill's Pub in Forest Hills, JP, when I bring poems there to work on. I sit in the front corner and have what I call "productive distraction": people watching outside at the station or inside at the pub. I do reapply my lipstick from time to time and use my reverse camera as a mirror. That's how I ended up taking this selfie. I think my mojo gets working because I'm in an Irish pub named after a writer, who's buried nearby. He was kind of a bastard to his family, but for some reason his writing spirit is imbibed in me while I work there.
