Description

Who hasn't had a nifty idea for a scene or a dialogue in a story and been put off by having to surround it with context? In a lot of ways the story is better when it's locked up in your head, perfect and unspoiled by the need to put everything in a neat and tidy order. That's the idea here: each piece of writing presented within is structured as short excerpt from a book that doesn't exist. There's just enough of each to give a sense of the larger work lurking in the shadows. Influenced by authors from Borges to Danielewski, this collection presents 200 short pieces loaded with funny vignettes, dark and secret mysteries, fanciful histories, and eye-popping characters. Bios of imaginary "contributors" and brief notes on each excerpt are provided as well.Untangle the mysteries within, write your own continuations, or simply use your imagination to fill in the blank spots!
