salienneAnd by "my childhood" I mean those two Christopher Pike books I was obsessed with during middle school. One of them starts off with, "I sit alone in a dead world" (which is meant literally), and if that didn't influence my writing and my taste in fiction, I don't know what did. Maybe small monkeys with pitchforks and small newspaper fish hats.
Oh, and you know the lj random post generator? This is part of what it came up with:
Near as I can tell, the guy was obsessed with flying imagery in literature. That's nice. A)Isn't that a bit, idunno, obvious? And B)If there's more to his "lightness" theory, shouldn't he do more than drink fucking vodka.
*Snort*
And I will now put off IFP homework, because writing in a "light" style is still just as unappealing now as it ever was. :)
