the cut-up technique

I’m ashamed to say I’ve had an “experimental” literature blog for over a year and have yet to do any cut-ups.

Well, that’s not entirely true. I write one every day and choose one I like at the end of the week. I’ve done this with my other poetry stuff. I started doing this with cut-ups at the beginning of September.

Normally, this isn’t pertinent information. In this case, the names are numbered. So, no, you are not “tripping,” there really are numbers missing.

Tellin’ Stories

That stream of consciousness stuff was fun. But I guess I should change it up. So, now I’m telling stories.

I’m leaving the length of these stories to whatever length they naturally take, and the same with their inspiration. I’ll be linking to the stories in this theme below.
