Chapter 1: The Universe and Everything

Someday I will write a novel that starts like that. I’m not really sure what it will be about or if will be any good. But if you steal my idea, my hand to Gad, I will straight up bitchslap ya.

On to more important things, like me. If you haven’t noticed, my faithful 7 readers, I have been gone for a while, this may be due to a large amount of school work and reading way to much James Joyce and 19th Century English Poetry. I really do enjoy writing, and reading, this is why I am an English major. The part I really don’t enjoy is analysis of a story. In someways, I can see how it is good and allows the reader to become more involved in the story, but too often the book is overanalyzed and it really can ruin it. Like Freud said, sometimes the cigar is just a cigar; sometimes the green light is JUST A FREAKIN GREEN LIGHT. It doesn’t have to be anymore. By the way, that reference was from “The Great Gatsby”, a favorite of mine that is too commonly overanalyzed.

If you happen to be a writer of any style, imagine if someone read your book and completely misinterpreted your character, or review, or story, a screenplay even. It’s crushing right? A writer’s stories are his/her babies(in a way. Roll with me here). We are affectively killing when you give meaning to things that never really needed anything more than what they already were. As an English major, it’s really hard to see that these things happen, going into reading a book for school you expect to read it with a highlighter and a pen, but for me it really just kills the joy of reading. I really hope that you are reading just because you enjoy reading. All books need to be enjoyed no matter what they are, there is probably one guy in the world who actually enjoys reading textbooks, but make him answer questions on it, all the enjoyment is gone.

From this point on I am going to at least attempt to write daily, it might be short and meaningless, but it’s there, and I’m writing. AND NO ONE CAN STOP ME!! BWAAHAHAHAHA!!!!! Sorry about that. Have a nice day and enjoy the weather, it sure is nice.

In the mean time, here’s a classic gem.
