About Myself:

I have a lifelong love of reading and a secret desire to be an author, that my chronic bouts of procrastination have always managed to stall. I read The Lord of The Rings when I was nine, and from that most excellent starting point have always felt my favourite genre to be fantasy, although I consider the definition of fantasy to be as broad as the mind can wander. I would like to recommend the following authors: Brian Lumley, Katherine Kerr, Raymond E Feist, Robert Jordan, Jean M Auel, Anne Rice, Frank Herbert, Isaac Asimov and of course good ol' Tolkein. Wikipedia them or something, they're all excellent storytellers!

Title article: Frustration
Date: 2008-08-25 10:24:20

When I worked the checkout aisle in a supermarket, this is the sort of thing I might have composed in my head as stress relief.

Title article: A Static Reality
Date: 2008-08-25 10:21:32

I have to partially agree with indianaman here, I feel that your message is a little unclear, yet I always remind myself that sometimes poems are too deeply personal to make literal sense to the casual observer.

Title article: A Sigh to Remember
Date: 2008-08-25 10:15:22

The narration style you use is engaging, I found myself pleasantly amused by this. I imagine that the japanese police would not be impressed if the character had been caught! The town sounds like a place to visit, I one day want to go to japan

Title article: Ebony Eyes
Date: 2008-08-25 10:06:59

Enjoyable. I get similar deja vu experiences all the time, although I never have songs interfering with the radio. How sad for the main character to save them all and die nonetheless

Title article: Unpredictable Suicide
Date: 2008-08-25 09:57:07

Very good. I wonder what monster the father was consumed by. I felt a sense of the tragedy that comes with the loss of innocence. Well told

Title article: Her Face -- A Haiku
Date: 2008-08-24 21:59:51

I pictured my girlfriends face when I read this. If a haiku paints a mental picture, this one succeeded perfectly

Title article: Suburban Hell
Date: 2008-08-24 21:29:54

That was riveting man, really good. I found myself wondering what the fuck was going on so badly that I could barely wait till the end. I have a suggestion: Give the man a choice to star in season 2, that way when he says no he gets shot. Otherwise the whole explanation from Mr Cole is unnecessary if he was only ever planning to shoot him. All in all a great story

Title article: A Toothy Tale
Date: 2008-08-24 21:10:21

I really really enjoyed this. I have worked in fruit and veg shops and listened to old couples arguing viciously over who said what and when about something as simple as "do we have any apples left at home?". I think the dynamics of the couple in this story are very common in a lot of relationships, when you find yourself arguing a point with your partner for no other reason than they 'might be wrong'. This story had a lot of accurate observations and was very entertaining.

Title article: A Child In The Garden
Date: 2008-08-24 20:48:26

Very interesting, and surreal. This had a biblical tone to the dialogue

Title article: As my mind falls apart
Date: 2008-08-24 20:45:08

I think I appreciate the theme here, but I cant help thinking you have limited the poem by choosing words that rhyme and writing the poem to fit them. "And hopefully these thoughts away from me will stream" seems like a poorly constructed line to me

Max Booth III (Zombie Punk)	Created On: 08/11/2008 15:14:41 Yeah, it's gonna have a lot more of a fantasy plot. I'm about to start the prologue in a little bit, and work out the plot some more.
Max Booth III (Zombie Punk)	Created On: 08/10/2008 19:08:36 Hehe enjoy! I think it turned out great. There is a sequel in the talks. You think you'd be interested in doing another chapter?
Max Booth III (Zombie Punk)	Created On: 08/09/2008 19:16:19 Hey, man, what's going on? You havent posted any stories (other then Project 30) in a really long time. I miss your writing.

C.D.Walker (indianaman130)	Created On: 07/09/2008 16:24:48 The only authors i haven't read from your list are Kerr and Auel. Shame about Jordan, started reading the Wheel in 98.
jesse (jesse2008) Blog	Created On: 07/05/2008 19:02:38 Very nice work Dirkin. You should update that blog, I'll would be glad to link up. But, that's beside the point. You keep on writing, you're doing a hell of a job.

Heh... Feedback from Mugen (Dirkin): Hmm i don't know any mexican jokes... (aussie), try this: why did the boy fall off the swingset? he had no arms.
