rhizome post # 1| Colin Maynes
well, after looking through the other blogs I know this is extremely egocentric of me to say) but after reading through the other images and posts I couldn't find another one that I enjoyed reading more than my own . So here it goes, my rhizome post.
1)
2)When I read the post I felt as if there was an incredible darkness that surrounded this writer, a darkness that he has been trying, unsuccessfully, to avoid admitting his entire life. A darkness that he not only possesses but inherited from his background(parents, childhood, etc.) that is only manifest in his writing and his darkest hours.
3) when i write I want people to be slightly confused and to pull multiple meanings from, because i can't stand it when the theme of a writer is horrificaly evident through their writing. it's like those people that only have one mood, it's depressing to me. THEY ARE BORING. writing lets you explore so many different moods and realities. for an example read anything by chuck palaniuck and you will have alternate universes open before you, ideas (good and bad) will present themselves in your mind without your permission. that is the kind of visceral reaction that i want to evoke in my writing. sincerely colin

Colin, if you're going to be an egotist, you should also try to be a perfectionist. The spelling and attention to detail in this entry completely undo any credibility you might have otherwise gained.
well, ironically i am also a self defeatist. bad combination.
