Oh man, that cracks me up. I loved it cause I laughed at the ridiculousness of it and was horrified at the language. I did try to read it as I imagined Hunter S Thompson speaking the words, and that softened it a bit for me. As you know, I had little choice but to post it, but I’m thinking it might not have been a bad thing that he missed the deadline.
On behalf of Mr. Flood, thanks for reading it! (And loving/hating it)
Heh, yeah, I loved the story idea itself. I just have this philosophy about coarse language – essentially that most of it in storytelling is completely unnecessary – so I always wonder how much better any story might be if the language was left out. But that’s just me. :)
I maintain interests in a wide variety of areas. I am an avid storyteller, specializing in (dark) speculative fiction and webcomics. I am also a professional code wrangler and dabble in amateur photography.
