Got the urge to do some experimental writing, What do you think of this? Also what are some other experimental writers, I feel like what I'm really looking for is text art. BTW the point in the piece below is to create the illusion of it being a multi-layered, post modern story about, possibly being gay, without actually being one. I was wondering how long people would read on if there were enough clues and enough there to make people think it might be about something.
KEEP READING
Firstly some acknowledgments: This is a short story, and I am the narrator, though to what degree you will never know; also, I am a pedophile.
I am not a pedophile, merely a homosexual, though would the two be so different merely 60 years ago?
But this is not what this is about; what this is about cannot be explained yet, you doubt me I’m sure, having stung you along this far, you feel this is all a game to me.
I can assure you that it is not, but to what degree?
To answer this question I must introduce 4 characters
1. The Wendigo – A Native American legend pertaining to a shape shifting spirit that feeds on human flesh.
2. Arnold J: my first love; my father; a mechanic from Western Pennsylvania.
3. Trudy: Our antagonist? Hardly.
4. 45TH American president Ronald Regan.
Now, Characters 2 & 4 have been consumed by the Wendigo, is that significant? This is your mission. Our antagonist sits on a park bench, reading from a book entitled Keep Reading: The Power of No. She is remembering her childhood.
Let me, the narrator, now go on to place myself inside the story, my name is Keep Reading: The Power of Stephen Smith. I am not dead.
Now, if you were paying attention (my life depends on it dear god) you will know that the above will help you workout to what degree this is a game to me; what type of game I will come out and tell you: It is a game you’ve never heard of, but here are the rules…
There are two players: the Homosexual and the Wendigo, either can be the narrator.
