99% of humans can`t process Aickbon-like writing

99% of humans can`t process Aickbon-like writing

Stories are supposed to be about happy endings and three-act dramatic structures, NOT prose texture

The concept of aesthetics with prose texture or stories being spiritual is beyond the conception of 99.5% of humans

I actually think it is kind of true that I can’t really process that kind of writing. Which leaves me with the question: what am I to do with this information? I can’t even process what it means to not be able to process Aickbon-like writing.

  8. Here’s the literature map for Robert Aickbon:http://www.literature-map.com/robert+aickman.htmlI hope he would appreciate the fact that he is sandwiched between two women. I’m not sure how appropriate they are, though.It is wonderful to number myself among the 7.5 million semi-literate individuals in England today.Are there really that many? I am encouraged.I can’t even process what it means to not be able to process Aickbon-like writing.This is a common problem, unfortunately. I was talking to someone just the other day who was suffering in this way, and there seemed to be no solution.”Day trading refers to the practice of buying and selling financial instruments within the same trading day such that all positions are usually closed before the market close for the trading day.

At what point do the day traders and night traders get together?This is what happens if you type “Quentin S.

  9. Hi Quentin. Just wanted to let you know that I appreciate what you’re doing. I’ve been reading your blog chronologically from the first post; I just caught up to the latest today (it took me several months of reading a few posts a day). I can’t begin to tell you what a wealth of information and inspiration it’s been. I found out about you first, I think, through D.F. Lewis’ blog. I read “Suicide Watch” on the Ligotti page, then tracked down “One Ball” and “Shrike.” Hope to get my hands on one of your short story collections soon. Great stuff!! I’ve been trying to spread the word to anyone whose vibrations might be sympathetic. And I’m very excited about the direction Chomu Press is headed. I was surprised and delighted to find out about the forthcoming publication of Cisco’s “The Great Lover. He’s another one of my favorite writers that no one seems to know about. Anyway, should you care to elaborate some more on your reading of Aickman, I would be all ears. I think he’s a genius. Right now, I’m working my way through “The Attempted Rescue.” Had to get it on loan from The Library of Congress. Well Wishes,Jim

  10. Hello Jim.Thank you for writing.It is actually nice to hear that someone enjoys the blog. I’ve long felt at best ambivalent about my blog. My recent pouring of energies into Chomu has meant that I have very much neglected the blog of late, and I have even been relieved to do so, as if some large dose of ibogaine has interrupted an unpleasant heroin addiction. However, I do also occasionally wonder if I should be neglecting my blog in quite the way I have been of late. Your comment leads me to reflect further.Thank you for all your interest. It’s much appreciated. Feel free to drop by here any time.

  14. Hey Quentin. Thanks for your response. No pressure to keep this blog going. Just wanted to let you know that what’s already out there has been immensely enriching reading for me.John, thank you for the links. I’m very excited about “The Tatooist.” And its great to know that Tartarus is keeping some Aickman titles in print.
