My 1st wine (a Pinot) is in. The Ne Plus Ultra made by Willamette Valley rock stars Drew Voit & Darcy Pendergrass RT http://t.co/UaSsmnMGDa

@scottyfairmont There is more truth to that than even I care to admit some times. Wait until you get to the end!

@AJWalkley Sure, A.J., use my name. And congratulations on your successful Kickstarter project. Now, all you have to do is write the book!

Thank you @RexPickett ! Absolutely devoured Sideways in just two days. Amazingly dark, deep, clever and funny read! http://t.co/3Dqv0QwuGJ

Retweeted by Rex Pickett@mkaisersmit Really looking forward to meeting & interviewing @RexPickett tomorrow.
Retweeted by Rex Pickett@Freshjim No, I was not. I always picture myself when I'm writing Miles, not an actor. Thanks for asking.#Writing: from the great Raymond Chandler via @janetsomerville: my sentiments exactly. http://t.co/yLq8gGFpxw@DeniseIvanoff Thank you, Denise. That's quite a compliment.

@Meadhbh_Monahan We very much want to come to the U.K. I've had so many requests from London and Ireland, it's overwhelming.

@la_larson Metaphors are the most powerful when the writer doesn't know they're metaphors or, especially, symbols, God forbid.@la_larson Those are the risks a writer takes, and when they pay off they can be transcendent.@RexPickett thanks Rex!! Best film ever based on an obvious great book #sideways
Retweeted by Rex Pickett@RexPickett thanks for the follow. Love your work!
Retweeted by Rex Pickett@la_larson Thanks, Lynn. It almost didn't make the final cut. True story.

@madmantx Now, that's funny, Ben. Thx for that.@bhroyce "u've created the 2 most despicable male characters in the history of film." I sd: "Have a free book, use the $15 to buy a sex toy.@Todddoty Yes, Todd was my uber-factotum. Two tix for u @ljplayhouse for the opening, Todd. Good to hear from you. I'm in NYC right now.#Writing is dangerous. At a book signing, this woman harangued me for writing the most despicable chars. ever! http://t.co/7BpCfZi5Ax@RexPickett thanks for the follow!! Super excited about SIDEWAYS. Hope you're enjoying this crazy city!
Retweeted by Rex Pickett@GaryHoller Thanks, Gary. We did it in a 55-seat house. Now it goes to a 400-seater.#Writing: some1 suggested I live a charmed life. I replied: u wouldn't want to live the life I've lived in order to live that charmed life.Thanks for the follow @RexPickett I look forward to seeing Sideways (love the film) when I'm next in LA!

@Alex_Ayliffe That's hilarious, Alex. Gave me my first laugh of a long day!!@RexPickett Thank you for the follow! Some of my fav shows opened at #La Jolla Playhouse! Can't wait for SIDEWAYS!!!
Retweeted by Rex Pickett@mindalarsen Hi Minda. Unfortunately we have all the women for the cast. You & your reps must have missed the breakdowns. It was wide open.#Writing: This New Yorker cartoon sums up all my frustrations w St. Martin's Press & their publicatoin of SIDEWAYS. http://t.co/QDTAgn2rP1

@TheSecondSingle @KennedyNation @joelkimball @Gavin_McInnes If it was just Kennedy and me I would love to come back.One of the funniest books/adaptations, Sideways by @RexPickett is now a play! I'm jealous for those who can see it. Too bad I'm in Canada.
Retweeted by Rex Pickett@RexPickett Sideways was brilliant. Salute.
Retweeted by Rex Pickett@MarcoMannone The very device on which you wrote that holds the answer to your question: the new Netiquette!

@RedEyeFNC @KennedyNation embarrassed I was on this show with the disgustingly racist @Gavin_McInnes. Nonplussed would be an understatement.Updated for your #Redeye pleasure: Guests tonight will be @KennedyNation, @Gavin_McInnes, and @RexPickett. Seize the day! #GoRedeye
Retweeted by Rex PickettGoing to be on @GregGutfeld 's Red Eye show tonight. Should be interesting, given my aesthetic sensibility. Don't know what the topic is.

@LisaKothari #Writing is a life. It comes before everything: children, spouse, pets, financial contentment, everything.

About to land in JFK. Once a much troubled, and disquieted, flyer I've decided that screen #writng is infinitely more dangerous.@reneeroman300 Yes, you need to brush up on your lexicological polysyllabics.If you come to #writing with a 2-year plan or approaching it as an avocation, I'm afraid you've already sown the seed of failure.@RexPickett psyched to see VERTICAL is now available as an audiobook and narrated by the same talent who did SIDEWAYS

#Writing doesn't know how old u r, how destitute, how lovelorn, how depressed. It waits, a vessel, aching eternally 4 its consummation.@wawinecountry A nice piece on my visit to Yakima, WA (Merlot country!) In the air now! RT http://t.co/mK48Xaqt7o

When I'm not #writing I grow starved for it, like a professioal mariner who can smell vegetation even when it's out of view of shore.#Writing: I could be wrong, but if the written word dies & it's only images, we will sail away in2 nothingness, in2 total insubstantiality.#Writing: As Rilke says, there are no classes for beginners in life, the most difficult thing is always asked of one right away. So true...#Writing: to young writers: if I knew what I knew now about how hard it would be the romance would have voided me. Relish your naievete.@madmantx Funnily enough, "War and Peace" came up in the meeting. Sadly, W&P may be unreadable by future generations.#Writing: my new WME pub. agent told me that literary fiction is alive and well, before adding, "Don't write anything over 70K words." Okay.@LisaKothari Unfortunately, I do. It's not my wont to Tweet things like this, but writers beware.#Writing: Theater agent said to me: "It's not a question of whether a producer will lie; it's a question of what species of liar they are."@funygirl38 This is precisely the attitude that one needs to have a chance. I don't think it's learned; I think you're born with it.

#FF @LJPlayhouse @corkbuzz @lauramaniec @janetsomerville @GoIntoTheStory @ruskingroupthtr @yogoldsmith @Stage32online Enjoy ur tax returns!@fabricker Yes, I'll be in La Jolla @LJPlayhouse for the play. Come on out!I said to an aspiring writer: In #Writing free time is everything. Do whatever you can to buy that free time: live cheaply, borrow, be free.#Writing: Sondheim's "Passion" at the Classic Stage Co. was simply mesmerizing. Bet. @Corkbuzz and Sondheim, NYC just gets better & better.

#Writing: the biggest revelation about theater is how well writers are treated. In Hollywood, venality looms behind every good intention.@VinoWeeks @lauramaniec @Corkbuzz No, but a bell was run at 10:00 and champagne was uncorked and more conversation flowed.Still buzzing about my dinner with master somme @LauraManiec & her "wine bar"/restaurant @Corkbuzz. Finest wines by the glass list in NYC!

The most sublime wines @Corkbuzz w master somme @LauraManiec. W/o ? the finest wine bar in NYC. Thx, Laura. C u at "Sideways" in La Jolla.#Writing: my first love was words; words gave me images; then the voices of characters; then stories. Words still continue to transfix me.#Writing: it was when I decided I wasn't going to write what they wanted me to write, but what I wanted to write, that things turned around.#Writing, I discovered the hard way, is not a meritocracy. The mind bedevils at what gets published, the soul nourished by what you write.@AJWalkley You're welcome, A.J. I didn't check off a reward so you could keep your expenses down. I'll take an e-book, though.

#Writing: if u don't dare to write it, u will never know whether it has the chance to be immutably etched into consciousness 4 all eternity.@brendaholtzclaw I'll see you in June and July when I head to North County and my "Sideways" the play at the La Jolla Playhouse (opens 7/21)@contreras_ed Yes, "Sideways" the play is coming to @ljplayhouse (La Jolla Playhouse). I could use some photography tips from you & a surf.

#Writing: I explained to some1 today that, for me, ideas r cheap, execution is everything. Mundane ideas in the right hands can be musical.@RexPickett Thanks for the follow. I'm thrilled Sideways the play is coming to La Jolla Playhouse in July. I'll be there!"

@stephen_jared Stephen, I've found success to be the best deoderant.#Writing: I've never found #depression or despair or destitution or deprivation as anything but fertile ground to till & sow my seeds.I firmly believe, and am a practitioner of, that #writing can reverse the desertification of the soul and bring some semblance of wholeness.#FF @janetsomerville @ljplayhouse @Stage32online @bukowskisbaseme @nvscreenwriting @yogoldsmith Cheers and happy weekend!

@Chumplet Yes, Sandra, I'm a landscaper of the human soul. And I've been "moonlighting" my entire life. Thx 4 the head's-up on the imposter.@Bear_75 Thank you, Hayley! I can't believe that SIDEWAYS continues to live on.#Writing: Thank You to all my new Followers. I just passed 40,000. I hope I can do this little city justice with my T-missives.
