Panbello.com : A tribute to 'FILM NOIR and the Femme Fatale', the BRILL BUILDING Sound and the Golden Age of TIN PAN ALLEY.
Name: PANBELLO
My name is Saul A., but I usually go by the 'nom de plume' Panbello. I am a freelance publicist-journalist, copywriter and poet. I am here -- and there! -- looking to meet other multiracial people.

Since 2004 I'm co-founder & owner of PANBELL® Projects, Ltd. (Nomen est Omen! LOL). My move into writing came from my desire to work from home (or anywhere else in the world) and because of my dabblings in writing during my school years (hehee).

My dear associate and companion, LANCEL, and I are about to start and set up our NEW website (www.panbello.com), dedicated to 'Film Noir and the Femme Fatale', 'the Brill Building Sound', 'Burlesque', and 'Tin Pan Alley'; and we will also organize a successful monthly Poetry evening at a bar/restaurant in our local town. This is a great get-together, and also achieves one of our aims; that of bringing live Poetry to people who might not otherwise listen to it. The participation and support has been fantastic, to date.

I love the silence, I love the silence of the moon. I became enamored early in the school of Poetry when one of my teachers read me some passages from 'Une Saison en Enfer' ('A Season in Hell') by the French Symbolist poet Arthur Rimbaud (1854-1891), and 'Les Fleurs du Mal' by Charles Baudelaire (1821-1867).

I admit I am a cynic. I have had a few amorous adventures which, whether happy or not, left their marks on my many poems.

I look for consolation and hope as I wander in the fragrant woods lamenting the extinction of hope yet keeps hoping. Perhaps when life denies me its blessings, there may still be a soul out there that will find mine, a drop of honey in the bittersweet cup of life I have been drinking from. The fallen flower renders its fragrance as its parting message but my romantic soul will not fade without embellishing the world with the sad and melodious sound of my last breath.

Currently I am actively looking for a suitable U.S. publisher for two hard-boiled crime novels and one screenplay ! Some of my articles and essays were already published in magazines like the 'Contact-J', 'JVL', 'BIW', 'Focus'; as well as the online 'WIKIPEDIA'.

I love writing; love the whole exercise, from staring at the blank screen to ending up with something that (sometimes!) has potential.

In my writings, the yearning is everywhere: strong, vulnerable, and vital. The yearning never really goes away, I'll just go on doing this beautiful thing.

Call it 'passion', I'm a dreamer. It's the truth of my life. I believe in, and are concerned with the pursuit of the TRUTH and other human values.

And like someone once told me:

"The three D's are very true in life - Dedication, Determination, and Discipline!"


SHALOM!
