So, the first two parts of this massive project I am undertaking is up for your enjoyment — I hope you’ll all support me and leave me loads of comments to let me know what you think. I have something like a hundred and sixty characters to introduce you to and each story will be [...]
Vonnegut uses the perfect framing device for this novel wherein a timequake bumps everyone back in time ten years to run through that whole decade of their lives again. He starts off by leading us in by the nose with the notion that he wrote a really bad book called Timequake (named Timequake 1 in [...]
It’s interesting, but from the title of the book and from the foreword by James Grauerholz I was led to expect something that was perhaps going to be more of an intimate, traditional style diary. As Burroughs states at one point in the book he does not want to be pigeonholed and it seems a [...]
I wasn’t sure what to expect from this book which may be a stupid thing to say given how much I have read Mr Ellis, both in the form of his graphic novels and the regular missives from his website. What struck me about this book though? That in some ways it was delivered in [...]

All of it is worth a read and I would appreciate any comments that you have — there is something for everyone: poetry (free verse, haiku, sonnets, etc); [...]
The Gambler is the story of Alexei Ivanovich, a tutor in the household of The General and his family. This was paired with Notes From The Underground: both of them being fairly short novels and stylistically similar — both of them using the first person form of narrative.
I found the narrator, even given some of [...]

In emailing back and forth with Chuck earlier this week, I asked him what he’s been up to. I might have been feeling him out for what he’s been working on a little. But it wasn’t my primary intention. [...]
