He turns to the Internet. Susan is an art school graduate working as a
waitress and suffering from a lack of inspiration. She receives a message
from Arin, but since she^(1)s tired of dating, especially online, she
suggests that he should just stop by her work. Arin is too shy to introduce
himself. So instead, he follows her home without her knowing and emails her
pictures of her mundane daily trudge. She is intrigued. They decide to meet
up, but in an attempt to keep their interaction interesting, they make a
pact to not speak to one another. As their romance develops, they only
write, draw, email, text, have sex, instant message, and make videos for
each other. No talking. Susan^(1)s creative clouds begin to lift, and
Arin^(1)s dry spell has ended. Unfortunately, a new world of more
complicated problems is discovered, and they are forced to deal with
intimacy as they meld together and create a monster.

SUBMIT HERE: (Places to show your art)
Pixie and Maggie have started doing a new morning show Suspect
Advice, on Thursdays and Fridays 8-10 AM on Pirate Cat Radio
In theory it's a call-in show dedicated to giving terrible advice on
anything and everything. We make fun of the news, play music and get a
hollywood celebrity report from Mr. Chris our LA correspondent each
week. We're pretty funny, mostly because we're still half asleep!
As all of you know, it's always hard to get that damn phone to ring, so
we're seeding the clouds and asking our nearest and dearest to help us
get the ball rolling. If you happen to be up and around and near a
phone, it would be a great help if you could call in and ask something,
anything – relationship issues, annoying neighbors, social etiquette,
medical problems. You can also email your questions to:
suspectadvice@piratecatradio.com
