Dear Jammmmy,

Goth or no goth, it's dark 'n creepy, but phunn n' kitchy too! Sort of like Raymond Carver meets the Munsters, or an episode of Bewitched, but you need to add some cool supernatural stuff. And what about that handsome beer bottle? Late night, alone, horny, mmmmmmmmm, as they say in chatville....

As far as creating personas in first person (but not intending them to really be you), I think that works on paper (Faulkner often wrote in that fictional first person mode) but I am not sure if it does online, especially at LK where readers/posters/staff are unlikely to have made it through A Rose for Emily OR Macbeth.....You're in American Urban Nightmare 300, and most of them haven't made it through Intro. to Lit.

Nonetheless, though you write a kick-ass epidode of Bewitched, you, like the moron that runs LK, wouldn't know a decent argument (or logic-driven non-fiction) if it was, well, a beer bottle resting temptingly in your fridge.

Ta ta,

Volt
