Drunken Fiction

I was reading over at Edgy Mama's one day and S.C. left a comment that "Drunken Fiction" is always the best.

I don't know why but the title made me laugh. Then I thought of Jackie Chan and Drunken Master, and that made me think that it would be a cool domain name and so I registered it.

I need a site to install a moveable type blog on and now I have one. I also want to have a place to put my short stories, and maybe my longer ones as well. I like to write, and lately I have been working on my poetry as well.

So here is the link for the new site. The design that is up now almost looks dangerous and I am not sure if that is the feel I was going for, but when I was done with it artwork I liked it nonetheless.

I apologize if you don't like the title. It implies that people are going to get drunk and then write - maybe. But it might also mean that all my writing sounds like a drunk man wrote it?

Either way, I always appreciate my readers feedback, positive or negative, I like feedback.

I also thought about making this site similar to what Anne Fitten / Edgy Mama is doing over at www.flasheville.com , but I am not sure that I have the patience to read through other people's fiction, nor the heart to tell them that it isn't good. I also cannot punctuate to save my life, but I don't think punctuation is always necessary to write a good story. One thing I learned from Julia Cameron and The Artists Way is that you shouldn't allow insecurity about your grammar skills keep you from writing, and so I don't.

I think it's a great title! The word, "drunken" can imply many different things, anyway!

I agree with faith: very catchy!

Eddo, I went over there to read some of your work and there was nothing there but the title page, sigh. If you've read around on my blog you've read some of my memoirs (If you are tired and you don't want to work, you pull a couple of pages from the memoir and voila, it looks like you actually sat down to the computer)
Now when do we get to see the real Eddp work?
