I am writing a book. But I'm not done yet.
So I'm going to post it episodically, on Poal, one chapter at a time, every Monday night. Kinda like they did back in the 1920's, with pulp serials.
I don't want any plot criticism, but I would actually really appreciate any help editing it with regard to the following: Grammer, concistentcy, tone, and whether or not it generally sucks.
I eventually intend to publish this piece of shit via Amazon. When that happens, I'd like it if you bought a copy, or at least told somebody about it. But you'll already have the full, unedited version of the book, for free, via Poal.
Some people here have already read portions of it. It's been a long project, and I hate writing. Writing is gay, but I'm ok at it sometimes.
Regardless, I'm going to upload the first portion tonight, second bit on Monday, and then every Monday after that until it is done.
It is very dark and whimsical. Don't judge me or ask me if I am ok. It's an amalgamation of truth and fiction. It isn't about my life, except for when it is.
I look forward to working with you.
Regards,

Welcome.
Recline on one of our couches, upholstered in the finest silk we could have, imported from the Orient.
Take your pipe, filled with quality Afghan Poppy, and imbibe, while you listen to our house poets take you to transcendent realms with their words.
Should you feel so bold, feel free to pen a poem, or short story here, while you are under the beautiful duress of the midnight's oil.
