WRITINGS

Either scroll down to see the full list of writings, or use the handy little links below to jump to a style of writing. All scripts but 'Submission' open up into Word documents because of the formatting, and while the novel opens up into a new webpage, the links from there also open up into Word documents because of the length. All writings contain the title, a short summary and a warning if needed. The poems 'Television' and 'Pixel Living' open up on the same page.
