Sheer intimidation, lol! I like it. Although, I woke up in the middle of the night (it's a usual thing) and what's on television but SuperJail. Has anyone seen this. The animation is gross in my opinion and not to my liking.... Another concept I totally dig executed by it's uh execution.

And no, my work isn't posted anywhere online. I considered posting at one website, but time said otherwise. (The story of my life... :-( ) Keith and Astro here have read some of it, along with about seven other friends of mine. In this story, my character used to deal with violence in the same way that a pre-teen kid might, with an almost-gleeful abandon. A set piece in it, which I ahve yet to fully explore, involves what's called the Death Register, when only the most exceptionally brutal-yet-imaginitive deaths are recorded for posterity.. One example I can give - one character is in the Register for convincing 150+ people to airlock themselves, as opposed to fighting him. He got the write-up for sheer intimidation. ---------[ Received Mail Content ]---------- Subject : Re: [RE][scifinoir2] Grayson's Predicament Date : Mon, 24 Nov 2008 06:09:31 -0800 (PST) From : Grayson Reyes-Cole <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To : scifinoir2@yahoogroups.com Thank you, Martin! Yeah, I'm solid on writing what I want to write, to post or not to post was the question, and you helped me with that! OK so I'm curious. You don't commit your work to .doc but you do have it in some format that allows folks to make judgments regarding it's hyper-violent-at-times nature? Hmmm. so does that mean your pieces are in posts somewhere in the cyber nebulous? On a side note... I'm studying violence in my own work. By nature, I'm not a violent person and not into "torture porn" to use a phrase I've seen a lot of lately, but my latest novel required violence, most of it directed at the female main character and, strangely enough, most of it brought on by herself. It's odd, horrific, eerie, disturbing, and I couldn't be happier that the story came out of me...

To a degree, *all* of the stories I'm working on are of the men-are-idiots-in-some-way vein, and the content, as you would know if I could find the time to commit my work to a doc so that you could read it, is of the hyper-violent-at-times variety, which has landed me in something of a conundrum in a non-writing group I post at daily. (Another user is virulently misogynistic in almost all of his posts, something I call him out on, but several female users don't see it that way at all, which has made me look at myself with a critical eye regarding how my words might come across.) That brought me neatly around to my initial statement. Write. Post. Let the masses be judges, but not *the* judge.
