a explaination why I adopted this style of writing......
It had to be when I was in college when no one took me seriously as a writer, during the open mic circut that there was this one writer who said I was no writer. It was like the one writer who gave Lovecraft a hard time because he wrote what he did. I started the stream-of-consciousness with a story that I wrote titled "The Unspeakable" but was a lost one when I was living in Iowa. It was that story that bascially thought to myself saying, shit, I could pull this off. It was after rewriting the story Curse Of The Ouija into the short story The Unwritten Relic. The stream-of-consciousness writing style allowed me to do paragraphs that are nearly a page long and with that gave me a lot of potential to write longer stories like what is seen here on the den in the modern years. There are not many who can pull this off but the ones who can; it takes a certain mind to pull sometning like that off. I guess it came from a lot of frustration, and it was from that which I got more creative. In that I got a lot darker with it. The poetry was something that came first then the short stories. But the short stories is something I am more prolific with, and just recently the short stories had been getting a lot of readership -- they got them already on the main website because each time I get a comment on here someone nails my guestbook somewhere.
