Three New Shorts (PJ LYON)

Moejoe · 07-30-2009, 11:34 PM

Not had much chance lately to get anything finished, but here's three newbies for your reading pleasure (or displeasure).

Not So Much a Season, Walker in the Rain and The Drowned are now included in the short collection "Small Victories" which can be downloaded here: http://feedbooks.com/userbook/4439

There have been so many posts since you put this up that I just found your thread..

Yea!! New stories to read! Thank you, Moejoe.

Can't wait for Sunday afternoon and free time to read!

Moe The Cat · 07-31-2009, 12:46 PM

Thanks for the new uploads, Moejoe. I'll start in on them tonight after work ... (I know, the real fans will read them at work. I have no excuses. Sorry.)

what a lovely way to start my weekend.

thank you moejoe.

Moejoe · 07-31-2009, 08:35 PM

Thanks again to all those who read my stuff. These stories, along with the other stuff I've mentioned but not released, will I think be the last of my writing to go up before I quit writing. So expect the novels and collections before the end of this year and then...well, then I'm thinking of making ambient techno music, or possibly basket weaving

LMAO

But yes, I'm serious I'm afraid, I'm quitting once I release everything I've got backlogged and whatever I write between now and New Year. Still a lot of stuff though. Plenty to read

Time, mainly, and of course Dan Brown. I always believed that writing was the noble art of communication, much more than just entertainment, more than something to pass time or deaden the nerves against our realities. But I fear that I'm in the minority with that belief when writers such as Dan Brown exist in the eco-system, so I'm not going to waste mine, or anybody else's time with my stories (apart from those who want to read them in the interim).

I really wish I hadn't seen that women, laden with Dan Brown novels in the book shop now. I'm so easily influenced by everything

zelda_pinwheel · 07-31-2009, 08:59 PM

i can completely understand your discouragement, but i really think it's a shame that you should let it stop you. i've given up things i loved for lack of time and regretted it, but i do understand that. but giving up something you love because the world is populated by philistines is no good reason. please keep writing, even if it's not as much as before (for time...).

Verencat · 07-31-2009, 09:04 PM

Crap, I'm out of words.

Please don't! Please don't feel that way!

Moe The Cat · 07-31-2009, 09:08 PM

If you continue to write, Verencat will give you the keys to the mods' hover-car ... right, Verencat?

Yes, but what makes the world great for the vast majority of us is that fact that there ARE writers like you out there for US!!

Please don't let the visible few deprive us of your works.

As always,

, for sharing your work... your writing is always something I look forward to and it gives me enjoyment in a stress filled day.
