Artist's Comments
Some nights when the city was dreaming so deeply that you could hear it whisper in it's sleep, Me and Max would climb to the roof and hang our heads over the sides.
Harry Chong had left his light on and you could see the dry cleaning hanging on the racks, floating two feet off the ground like expensive ghosts...waiting for that magic word that would drop them to the floor and let them walk out into the night. The skinned ducks had been taken down from the window of Sammy's Noodles and Max hissed at a rat that scurried along the wall below us. And I swear...on nights like these I was almost sure that I was really looking down on a deserted movie set, as if all the building were simply painted on plywood and if I walked around the sides I'd find them propped up with 2x4's. And from the west a cool breeze blew in from the Hudson River and filled me with a sweet lonesome ache.... Stephen Pierce |

 reports, 1d 12h agoDaily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you  the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community. |

Something I never seem to be able to capture here, and I couldn't quite put my finger on it. But I've worked it out. America seems to have such vast...space and open streets, large 'sidewalks'. Britain is too compact and dosile, I can never really get the right 'feeling' that I want in my photographs!
Good inspiration nevertheless!

There's some dodgy countryside roads too, I remember taking a trip to a small village in a large coach, and it literally started rolling backwards on one of the hills!
In other situations cars have had to reverse for half a mile, to allow for the car on the "other side of the road" (I say that in inverted comma's because that's laughable at best) to get past.
We're a small island ever expanding, it's no wonder we're so compact! hehe.

PLUS your money's worth TWICE as much so everything costs half!
Which will suck for me going the other way round...............
I've never really understood how people have given New York such a nasty reptutation in terms of friendliness, I can appreciate everyone has their own agenda and what-not.
Alas, I'm a poor student with money going towards studies! One day though, for sure.
And I feel for you about the economy situation, lets hope it just levels out a bit before you hit here!
