California Is A Recipe For A Black Hole, or so says MoJo Shivers the author of our final “Famer” for the year 2008, and the last of the “Should Be Famer’s” from my original blogging reads.

California is a Recipe For a Black Hole was one of my first reads in the land of blogs. The author was one of my original/sole commenters as well, back in the day when people didn’t scramble for Techorati and Google rankings and the only thing anyone was even remotely concerned about was their ecosystem rating in TLB. MoJo is one of the few who has remained true to the original intent of his blog. He writes what he wants. He doesn’t concern himself with what others want to read, or how his first paragraph will affect his search engine rankings. He doesn’t follow people throughout the blogesphere leaving random useless comments hoping to scrounge up a reader or two. He is blogging pure. If I’m not mistaken he may even still be sporting his original template.

Through this blog you will become familiar with a character who loves the Red Sox, follows Rilo Kiley, and would probably be comfortable living his life in Victorian Nova Scotia — obsessed with Avonlea as he is. A romantic and a perfectionist, you will read about relationships which were, or which could have been. You’ll be privy to the author’s thoughts as he wanders through the why’s and what if’s. You see clearly his attitude, his mood, his habits. You will become familiar with his most unattractive personalty traits.

California is a Recipe For a Black Hole contains fiction, stories of life and feelings. You get to know the characters through storytelling, their poetry, and their conversations. There are several characters now, “breasier” and the fairly recently introduced young “dw”, however, MoJo Shivers, aka Patrick, is the driving force behind the blog. There is no pretense here, you get what you get, the author doesn’t pretend to be a nice guy, doesn’t hide his most unattractive traits to make you love him more, but it’s precisely because of this you do.

Grab a cuppa something and check out California is a Recipe for a Black Hole. You’ll be glad you did.

We’ll be introducing our next “Famers” soon. While we ponder who to honor we’re going to play around with this theme some. Don’ be alarmed.

If you’d like to be a guest blogger and fame someone of your own hit us up. We are particular but you just never know.

Peace for now.
