Surely one of the finest sections in modern English literature.
Taken from βThe Adventures of the Teen Archaeologists (Book One): The Land of the Moepek β by Larry & Denise Ellis
Note: this is the first and only time we hear about Walker, Waldo, Aaron, Madison, Magnus, Dallas, Vadimas, Jason, Ignacio, Baldwin, Fabien, Pablo, Hamilton, Ulrich, Wade, Wallace, Mack, Calder, Callahan, Dalton and Bailey. RIP, we hardly knew you.
As always, thanks to the wonderful #372pages book club for exposing me to such great works (https://372pages.com)

Recently I listened to the #372Pages Weβll Never Get Back podcast episodes from 2018 about The #EyeOfArgon. For the uninitiated, EoA is a short fantasy novella in the vein of Conan the Barbarian that was published in the Ozark Science Fiction Association zine, #OSFAN, in 1970. The novella is hilariously bad, and thus developed cult status in the SFF community. This is all pretty well documented online. What I want to talk about is its less-documented author, #JimTheisπ§΅ 1/
Anyone else reading the current 372 Pages book, βChristmas River Murderβ? Such a welcome return to the cozyverse after the disturbing and incredibly weird βSuper Constitutionββ¦ though it feels, perhaps, almost too good π Thankfully the first podcast episode is, as always, hilarious.

I've always fancied the idea of doing more creative writing, but ultimately decided it's not for me, since I'm not drawn to it like my other hobbies and I've always struggled with coming up with ideas.
That said, I've been listening to a lot of #372pages over the past year or two and the more I listen, the more I really want to write a novel purely because I'm convinced I could do a better job than some of these authors.
I have to imagine the number of people who have written their first book for the exact same reason is non-zero, yeah?
