The Terror{blist} is an ironic and dark humoured short story that examines the masculinization of idealism and the probable effect of the contrary. In a well of depression, Gavin, quits his telemarketing job and joins a group of radical idealists. In the days leading to his act of terror, a typo has all news stations emasculating the acts of his terror group. Thinking he will be remembered forever as someone less than a man, Gavin ponders the things that men do.

This is the tale of a polite and well-mannered boy named Alex who; after being abducted by a pedophile, develops an incredible bond with an angry and foul mouthed doll called The Gruff who teaches young Alex how to find his voice.
When Alex wakes bound in a wooden coffin to manic cursing and abusing, he finds something he’d never imagined having, a true friend. In the days that follow, a small oddly tempered doll called The Gruff will teach Alex how to say no, how to sharpen his claws and how to kill a man.
And a triangle of deception will leave Alex wondering who the real victim is.
Based on real events and explores the philosophical theme of the effect of the domestication of children through mannerly learning and poses the premise that 'politeness is the discipline of abuse'

Live Writing experience
Through my LoungeWindow (scribd), I have a project entitled the Live Writing Experience wher eyou the reader can be a part of the entire writing process of my novel as it is pieced together.
As each chapter is written, it is uploaded that minute to the LoungeWindow with no editing or reading on behalf of the writer.
The Terror{blist} Chapter Zero is now live:
http://pt.scribd.com/doc/154948870/Th...
The Terror{blist} examines the masculation of idealism and the probable effect of the contrary. In a well of depression, Gavin, quits his telemarketing job and joins a group of radical idealists. In the days leading to his act of terror, a typo has all news stations immasculating the acts of his terror group. Thinking he will be remembered forever as someone less than a man, Gavin ponders the things that men do.

The Free Art Collection Update
My mind is very much like an Indonesian prison. Every day, the total sentence is reduced for good behaviour and adherence to the rule.
In the case of Alex and The Gruff, the one year deadline to find an agent to represent the novel has been reduced now to 100 days.
I imagine this number will reduce even further in the coming days and may even be released with the current Free Art project: The Terror{blist}
I have no patience for industry, agents and assuming a piece of art is a product to be shopped and pitched. I care only for the creative process with the endorphin/seratonin mix high when a project is completed and the seratonin high when it is released followed quickly by the mass depression that follows which leads in one or two days to the next project and thus the line extends.
So I'm just saying, the search for publishing is not mine.

Alex and The Gruff
Alex and The Gruff is now in agent junk boxes. It will remain there for one year before being included in The Free Art Collection should I maintain restraint. 364 days to go.
In the meantime, I am digging out KMFDM - Nihil which will be the fuel for your next Free Art novella:
The Terror{blist} - a short story about terrorism, translation and immasculation.

Alex and The Gruff
Alex and The Gruff
364 Days to Go
Yesterday eve I sent off queries to agents regarding this story. As promised, this will sit in the hands of agents for one year and in that time, if it has not been taken aboard, it will make its way into the Free Art Collection.
I will commence the new Free Art project next week entitled "The Terror{blist}"
Until then, I will leave you with a teaser for Alex and The Gruff.
This is the tale of a polite and well-mannered boy named Alex who; after being abducted by a pedophile, develops an incredible bond with an angry and foul mouthed doll called The Gruff who teaches young Alex how to find his voice.
Alex and The Gruff is a 96,000 word horror story that will appeal to readers of Stephen King’s trepid subtlety and to those who thirst for Clive Barker styled blood curdling crescendos.
When Alex and his family change cities, they make their home in a small and squalid apartment in a housing complex full of strange leering and poking people and their pesky shadows which at night, creep up upon the branches by Alex’s window and tic and tac away with their scratching nails. Alex can’t sleep at night and at day, he struggles to comprehend his fear as all of the grown-ups around him seem to paint with their own morose stroke.
There is The Teacher, who circles the air like a hungering bird of prey, never far from the spark of his fright, smothering the children in kisses and formidable adoration. She is trumped only by The Scary Witch; Mother Superior, with her despotic robed expression of dissatisfaction, patrolling the halls with her choking beads outstretched in her strangling hands. And then, there is The Man. He is different. He listens. He doesn’t push Alex aside. He doesn’t pretend that he isn’t there. He makes a friend of him; before he takes him.
When Alex wakes bound in a wooden coffin to manic cursing and abusing, he finds something he’d never imagined having, a true friend. In the days that follow, a small oddly tempered doll called The Gruff will teach Alex how to say no, how to sharpen his claws and how to kill a man.

Alex and The Gruff
The old lady looked skeletal. Her skin was like dry desert sand. It cracked along her arm, up her neck and all about her face making dried blotchy crevices all over her skin. She was like a human salt plain and when she spoke, the dry dusty earth spurted from hallowed caves of her sunken chest.
