• Job Hunt

  Wouldn’t it be great if we didn’t have to have a job?  And when I say job, I mean the thing you don’t really want, but get up most days to go to, and spend most of your life complaining about – yeah, that thing. I am not referring to dreams, callings, or purposes –…

• “Delusions of Grandeur” *(Excerpt II)*

  This is a short passage from my work in progress, Nanowrimo novel. In the excerpt Eric is struggling to sleep, and finds himself suddenly fascinated with the world around him, both real…and imaginary… The curtains flutter and clap against the window sill, making me aware of the trespassing evening wind.
