Hello...

[SpiderCricket]

I used to post here a while back, but gave up on a lot of things. Givin my current living situation I feel as if I might try to go back on the road. I always told myself if I was gonna kill myself I'd just travel instead in hopes to find a new beauty in life. I'm interested in ways of making fast cash so I can buy a van and start rubbertramping. I wanna pick up hitchhikers and write their stories in a book and 50 percent the profit (if I make any) I make will go to homeless shelters and communes. I write, play, and go by the name Spider Cricket and if I'm ever backed by a band I'd like to call it Spider Cricket And The Love Bugs. That's all I can really say for myself.

welcome to the site? err welcome back to the site! I suppose, lol.
wouldn't you rather write a story about your own travels rather than someone elses? I know I for one wouldn't want someone making dime off of my own life, even if part of it was donated.

I suppose you're right. But I would tell the people I pick up about my intentions on the stories they tell me. Plus I'd be hooking them up in exchange for a story with a free ride, free food, free shelter and possibly free weed and/or booze. I'd probably make the last part my own story leading up to a follow through book.

still sounds kinda sheisty to me. but youre free to do what you want to do.

Hey, so what was your previous username? Ive been around awhile too, just mostly lurking.
Traveling is definitely not a guarentee to help you enjoy your life again, i'm someone that would know, you see. Blah blah you know that though.
And about writing the stories; excellent idea. If the hitchers are comfortable you might have them tell the story into a recording device.
Welcome spidercricket
