I've finished writing a novel called DOUBLE FICTION. One chapter was excerpted about a year ago in Rose & Thorn Journal, and three other chapters will be published in the coming months in Heavy Feather Review, This Literary Magazine and carte blanche. I've posted a PDF of the novel at http://www.willcall.org/head.pdf I'd appreciate feedback.

I just translated something for you, guys. A fragment of the autofictional novel I'm writing.

I've written a few things on this end... articles, novels, etc. My most recent is The Infinite Library which has its Borgesian flavour, and the sequel, The Infinite Atrocity is coming out at the end of April. More here: http://kanexfaucher.weebly.com/write....

FWIW, and because I see you all are reading Ulysses right now, and thus inspiring me to complete my long-winded rereading, here's my extremely long Ulysses review so far

Thanks Paul! Looking forward to the remaining episodes.

Drop into the Ulysses discussion threads when you have a minute...

The Innumerable Waste

I published my first work last year. It's a short, dense, and vivid jigsaw puzzle of a book. There are strains of hypertext and paranoid fiction. Its structure is of fragments that the reader is left to unify.

Hello, I'm a fan on experimental fiction, which is why I'm happy to have found this group.

I'm also an author and my dystopian science fiction novel "A Calculated Life" is available as a Kindle eBook and, as of this week, as a paperback. It was a Launch Day Bestseller on Kindle Science Fiction.

Watch out for an upcoming Goodreads Giveaway, and a Free short story download "A Cure for Homesickness," which you find on my blog later this week:

Hi Everyone.

My debut novel is called The Absurd Demise of Poulnabrone.

I'm not sure quite what to say about it. I hope it reflects what I like to read. It took me a long time to do, partly as I wanted to be proud of it on my bookshelves; there's a lot of good literature up there. As far as that goes, I think it would be more honest to let others judge. I've linked to an excerpt so if anyone wants to dive in and have a look. It's page is the link directly beneath it.

Hi there. I am new to this group.

I just thought you might honestly like my book, depending on your group's theme. Hope I am not mistaken. I hate self-promo and everything though one must do what he has to do, if he wants to make a living on this (and devote his life on writing actually).



http://www.amazon.com/Breaking-Good-G...

I am looking for reviews so far and two kind gentlemen have provided theirs (though I figure they helped me a little). I can send free copies if someone finds it interesting, then maybe if you find time, in return you'll provide a live review.

Thanks,
Giorgos Kazoulis

Hello everyone,

For the month of March, I'll be offering 50 copies of 'The Absurd Demise of Poulnabrone' in a Goodreads giveaway. You are all very welcome to enter. However, before that, and for members of Brain Pain alone, I'd like to offer ten physical copies, (on a first come, first served basis), and a digital copy to anyone that would like to read it. This is separate from the Goodreads giveaway, and so will end the moment the giveaway begins.

I'm offering this to the members of Brain Pain, as, to be honest, I don't spend much time online, and when I do it is the only group I really frequent. From my perspective, it offers me the chance to have some advance readers, and maybe a critical review or two (a very valuable thing for a writer to have!), but with-that-said, when it is read is entirely up to the reader. Equally, it is entirely up to each of you if you would like to rate it or post a review. There are no strings attached. Above everything, I just like the idea of it being read.

How will this work?

If you would like to read it, send me a private message, stating your preference for either a hardcopy or ebook. If you would prefer a hardcopy but would also accept an ebook, do say so. I will reply to the first ten looking for a hardcopy to get an address (no restrictions), and send it to you very soon afterwards. If you would like or will accept an ebook, place an email address in the message and state whether you would like a .epub or .mobi.

I will ask only one thing. I will try to be as prompt as possible responding to anyone and everyone, so bear with me if you don't get an immediate reply, but if you don't hear from me after a couple of days, send another message.

Thanks everyone,

Liam

If you think you know about horses, you're wrong.

If you don't care about horses, you're also wrong.

After you're famous, be sure they include in this your juvenilia collection...

[Zadignose]

Unfortunately, I may still be supplying material for that collection well into my eighties.

[Gregsamsa]

HA HA HA HA!

Wunnerful. So many scholars neglect the place of JELL-O in horse history.

[Zadignose]

In the name of continued boosterism, and to promote a greater appreciation of the classics, the following is offered for your bemusement:

I love how in so many of your comments you seem so serious and scholarly but your creative output reveals the lie and exposes you as AWESOME SILLY.

[Zadignose]

My secret is revealed!

And yet another announcement!

“Hamlet” is a long and complicated play, full of ambiguities and contradictions. A play wherein one can be caught and lost.

In the month of november 1917, about a hundred years ago, John Dover Wilson was travelling in a train to Sunderland. On this occasion, he read a paper by Walter Wilson Greg: a paper that would frighten him and change his life. He had discovered that the criminal plot of the Prince of Denmark was full of traps and pitfalls…

Freud, T. S. Eliot, Lacan and many other scholars after them have endeavoured to set the record straight on these matters, in very different ways. The play I have recently published is but one modest contribution to this, perhaps, never-ending task: one previously unseen way to re-read Hamlet…

This time, Shakespeare’s tragedy is contemplated from the distant point of view of the kingdom of Norway, through the dramatic story of Prince Fortinbras. It is therefore my pleasure to announce the release of Fortinbras : Mais qui a tué Hamlet ?



The text of this play is in French and has not yet been translated. But to those of you in this group who are interested (and who, incidentally, can read French!), I would be happy to offer five signed copies of this book. I will mirror the process Liam has initiated for his own book (see above) and ship a hard copy to the first five claimants (ebooks are not available to distribute as per my publisher). Please, message me directly with your request and a physical address of shipment (first come, first served). Reviewing is up to you, of course, but would be most welcome.

Alternatively, you may also enter the Giveaway I have just created (20 copies available), that will end on October 10th.

Thank you all in advance for your interest.

Leonard

Let me introduce my co-autor's and mine debut novel written in a classic modernism genre from the third person. The novel's language is inspired by Russian classic writer Fyodor Dostoevsky and English modernism literature. Never a Dream is a mix of contemporary romance and classic stream of consciousness.

“Never a Dream” tells a tale of eternal love, the one that never ends, and lasts longer than one lifetime. The kind of love everyone is searching for…
Except for, maybe, Matt — he is too busy living the classic rock-star’s dream full of music, drugs and girls. Lots of girls. Life is treating him well, until reality starts to bite.
Rain, on the other hand, is a dreamer She recovers from one failed relationship and, with her eyes wide open, jumps straight into another. Her passion for antiques drags her into a new adventure that, like every castle-builder’s wish, begins in dreams.
Wishful thinking is not something, Ed is familiar with. His life used to be strictly practical, however, Ed suffers from solitude, that even he fails to recognize. Even in a relationship he is still lonesome. But changing that means changing his whole life.
Changes are also the thing Charlie is craving for. She’s been playing warm family life for long enough to get tired, so now she is ready for another step. Only she has no idea, where exactly is that step supposed to be leading her, and how many people she might hurt on her way.
In this story everything and everyone is connected, but that’s yet to be learnt.

The entire ambient seemed painful and the atmosphere was dense as if muffling screams in itself."
