Writer StatementI agree with John Gardner that the writing of fiction is the "creation of a vivid and continuous dream." To write, one enters this dream state and allows one's characters to inhabit one's being and to speak through one. My fiction influences are diverse and range from 19th-century traditionalists like Henry James, Edith Wharton and George Gissing to 20th-century modernists like James Joyce and Virginia Woolf and postmodernists like Donald Barthelme. The Decryption of Floriform X -- This short, illustrated fiction was written on Twitter circa 2008, each tweet numbered to keep track. The God of Wind and Air -- Unfinished sequel to Decryption, written collaboratively on Twitter. The Manuscript of Jacob Hall -- Why write fiction? What is it "for"? |
Sunday, September 13, 2009Think of Me as a Wilberforce The horizontal row of motifs at bottom achieved their textured appearance by hasty blotting after wet brushwork. The slipper-shaped drawing at far left is from life, the front face of a studded leatherette chair, yet also references the shape of a paramecium. Text reads: Reach for a tool to make slipper-shaped pods Think of me as a wild animal/wilberforce The first cell ever formed had a nucleus in it, plus a whole lot of bodies (Golgi bodies?)
