Dogg you ain't posted nothing in hell of days.
:iconlpowell:
Nice. I'll check them out tomorrow.
:icondeztornmind:
I know. I'm still alive, and I mean that. I'm still writing; but they're scraps and nothing else. I might post one story that's very abstract.

I'll start posting again regularly, just pulling myself off the ground right now.

I've read about five of your stories and either I'm not getting the point or this stuff's just not my bag of crackers. Though I think they'd make some pretty kick ass short graphic stories because of the amount of visual content.

Liked 'Doin' Lines With The Devil', it was a bit more focused. The other stuff was more like a Looney Tunes gore fest. Kinda bounced all over the place and the only consistency I could find was the fact that at some point someone was going to bleed. I guess maybe the point to your stuff is that there isn't a point? Not trying to be dick here, it's a legitimate thought.

Do you practice other styles of writing?

Anyways it was at least interesting to read something different. I'm trying to expand my own skills so anything out of the ordinary is appreciated. If you get bored feel free to stomp through my writing stuff, I'd be interested in your opinions.

You're not the first to ask what the point of the stories are. My initial intentions were to write eight novels simultaneously, but that flew about 100 miles over my head at the time. I settled for writing twisted flash fictions, because I'm so impatient to get feedback that I write very short pieces. It's difficult to fit a plot so few words, and so I often write a scene that I find interesting. I introduce the characters, show the scene, and wrap it up. The main point of the stories is to show moral diversity. Some of the stories being more obscene than others, I strive to corrupt people's morals and convince the audience to act on freewill rather than authority, tradition, and adopted morals/ethics. I'm still at work at the novels I'm writing, and I believe they'll illustrate my point much more clearly.

I'll definitely tell you my opinion of your work (prose).
:iconwingedterrapin:
Dude, that’s a heavy goal for anyone. And you might want to add that piece of information about your stories being scenes to your description, you’d catch less shit from people who are confused and expecting a complete work.

Your goal is pretty interesting. I don’t quite agree with it, but at least you have direction and purpose with what you’re doing. Personally I see value in tradition and ethics, but I think it’s important to question them and understand them on more then face value. I try my best not to harm other people, not because other people say it’s wrong, but because I see nothing to gain from it. Everyone has different views though. Some people run around killing each other for fun, but it’s not like I’m going to sit them down to tea and cookies and talk them out of it.

I’ll have to flip through your Ranicla stories. I think I’ll like them better after I collect a bit more understanding.

Well, I’d like to warn you about the run on sentences and comma rape ahead of time.
