Thoughts on ST up to ch. 9 (let me know if I'm posting too much) --- "three flights of non-stairs" is living in my head forever. Love your repeated use of McDonald's. "Acid tastes sour / this is irony" incredibly fire line. Perversion & beauty are one and the same (!!!)

Ironic--I hit my comment limit for the day right in the middle of that post. I even signed up for premium, not realizing it wouldn't change that. Aah ok where was I.

"I thought that was in my head" -- working on multiple levels. Really like how the genre scope and voice keep expanding. LOVE the horror of ch. 8.

2025.08.17 // Felix Biederman once remarked that Zack Snyder is not a fascist; he's simply bisexual. Had someone approached him early in his career and informed him, we wouldn't have had to suffer through 300, Batman v Superman, et. al. Someone dear to me, junior year of high school, approached me with the same news. "Alex, you're bisexual; you'll be happier if you just accept it." And look how I turned out!

If only someone could travel to 1994 and visit this knowledge upon Amelia. Perhaps then the whole story would have never happened; we'd be left with the "Breaking Bad set in Canada" meme. Alas.

Thanks for the follow! Science fantasy with a heaping amount of anime bullshit on top? That's exactly what I'm doing as well haha. I will look at more of your page tomorrow.
I've just read Smaller Things 1 and 2, and really felt em hit my chest. Really excellent stuff; I look forward to finishing the rest soon.

Re: LLMs, I too argue your voice is not robot-like. I agree with j0ner; your prose moves with unmistakable soul. Employing one's own high lit style outside of a Simon & Schuster publication is no grounds for suspicion.

thank you v much!! Smaller Things is not yet done, so if you read fast you'll run out of chapters soon, but I am still actively writing it, and hope to be finished it relatively soon!! I have the rest of the plot worked out, it's just emotionally taxing to write, lol

That's super rad. If there's anything else on your site you'd like reader feedback on, do let me know.

This (ST) is wonderful, so rollicking and depressing. I just shared the synopsis so far with my roommate and we were about crying laughing.

I welcome feedback on everything tbh! There's a lot of writing on my site, so if anything looks interesting, I'd love to hear what you think about it!

Fantastic. It'll be completing serialization at 350-450k words on 2032.01.01, assuming I haven't been hit by an asteroid. I usually put out chapters every 1-2 weeks.

2025.08.14 // Sometimes a week of learning about 1980s Canadian politics is necessary for some hyperdiagetic reason or other. 2032 looms over me like a Burtonian cliff.

Hopefully no one will protest if I fill the time, between highlighting and labelling print-out maps of British Columbia, or studying the history of the Tacoma General Hospital, to give one-line reviews of what else I've been reading.

Gravity's Rainbow (Pynchon) -- will eschew review as it was the reason I finally started writing this book in the first place. "He got away with that??" as an excellent reason to stop burying your story in your head.

House of Leaves (Danielewski) -- truly a beautiful love story.

readsable's avatar readsable 1 month ago

Area X trilogy (VanderMeer) -- almost done with the last book. Not as scary as I'd hoped. Too many adjectives.

Reading next... My Year of Rest and Relaxation (Moshfegh), that is, if my bookstore ever gets it in stock.

I am so sorry for your loss.

WOW. Ok. Powerfull, really truly scary, a brandnew Girl with Psycho Weapon. There are at least twenty panels I'd individually point out, given enough comment space.

All I can say without spoiling is--the amount of emotion you extract from the minimal linework on Daisy's face, time and time again, is staggering.
