Description

A Hollywood filmmaker and author with a three-decade career immersed in the world of rock and roll is working on a book on the environment and how to live sustainably. At the same time, he's writing a tale of Marilyn Monroe in Canada... and a book of memoirs with a heavy metal drummer. Thankfully, his Buddhist practices see him through the chaos. But not before he falls into a routine of jotting a haiku every day for a year to bring order to his reasoning, his routines, and his writing. At the end of that year, he finds that the words have changed him, and his life, forever. He moves from California to Cape Cod, to his partner in life, and partner in creativity, a photographer who paints poetry with her cameras. Together they twist haiku and begin posting on social media, sometimes at the rate of more than once a day, attracting a world-wide audience. While remaining true to the spirit of the form, he bends the rules just a little... like her lenses bend the light... just a little. They call it "Instaku Haijynx."
