More Schoneboomery
Surrealpolitik: More than a site dedicated to the book of the same name, it's a searchable repository of amazing quotes related to delusion, reality, and the symbolic order.
Magic Stories: A unique digital platform for reading and creating highly randomized (yet not arbitrary) stories that are (probably) never the same twice. Go on. Try it out.
Bratum Books: Publisher of the Uncommonalities series of short story collections bound by a common first line.
Bonkworld: Stop it. Bonk is a cartoon sound effect, not a dirty word. Lots of interactivity and japes, not entirely unliterary, occasionally informative. A rarely updated playground for me and a co-conspirator or two.
Wossafocken Point: What indeed?
Uncommonalities Volume III: Accident
It's Volume III of Uncommonalities, Bratum Books' series of uncommon short stories with a common first line (and/or other shared elements). This time it's accidents, and when you start with an accident, you're in the realm of the arbitrary, the unplanned, the magical, that place where chaos, carnival, and ecstasy mock the orderly pretensions of reason and logic. In the pages within, accidental beginnings will express themselves in tragedy, in comedy, in a touch of horror, and in the poetry of loneliness and wonder. As for the second common element, well, read and find out what happens when a noun is forced to become something else entirely as a result of a fleeting obsession with Jorge Luis Borges. Volume III: Accident features stories by Jonathan Baker, James Borden, Hannah Bullimore, Steve Chambers, Jill Corvelli, Hope O'Keeffe, Walker Perreault, Pauline Plummer, John Schoneboom, and James Tucker.
