Awesome to see more writers out there!!

I checked your page; I was pretty excited because it looks like we have similar interests! Postmodern horror + experimentalism in general is probably one of the things I love most about... anything. Have you read House of Leaves?

Also, about your goals post (which I'm too lazy to comment on separately) I totally understand the whole thing about cutting out all the extraneous fluff. I like to think I'm pretty decent at it after going through a pretty long self-imposed regimen, but of course there's always room for improvement!

Anyway, great to see you participating!! I may contact you at a later date, if you don't mind discussing writing, ideas, etc!

I don't mind at all -- it'd be great to get in touch! I love idea jamming and I'd be totally down to just chat in general. Finding people with similar interests and tastes is so exciting!!

I actually haven't read much of House of Leaves yet (because lately I'm terrible at actually finding time to read for pleasure, sobs). But I've heard great things and it really intrigues me! I love that kind of fiction -- it's so immersive and there are so many possibilities for expressing and veiling information and AHHH I am just so about it. It's so fun to explore.

And you're definitely right, there's always room for improvement! It's awesome that you have a method, though. I'm still trying to build up a regimen for myself when it comes to game dev, and I think this jam will be a huge help in getting my bearings.

But yes! Thank you so much for the warm welcome, I'd be happy to talk more any time!!
