| Matt Locke |
Author has written 29 stories for General, Mystery, General, Love, and Supernatural. (Finally making his return after a long hiatus, Matt Locke has spent the down time considering how much his previous style sucked; nevertheless, he hopes you like whatever you read. Rewrites of previous material to come.) hey...call it what you want...this is a crock of it, though. okay, with a year and many travels with thoughts of a whirlwind of absurd-like influences that never seem to manifest in my work but haunt me constantly nonetheless, I've decided that my writing needs to come from a much more unconsious state...basing myself on that paraphrased arcane idea of old Uncle Al's that "creativity is the Art and Science of transforming reality in accordance with one's will," I'm wont to work through trance-like invocations rather than conscious over-planning. at least I'm writing again. and finishing things too. | |||||||
