To date, the pamphlets and ass. ephemera produced within the above stricture are as follows:
1. we's the real (a motley confluence of sin)
relating to the myriad transgressive doings within student body and faculty of the University of East Anglia.
2. the house by the sea
a focused revivification of my apocalypse yarn. each copy (total 10) is accompanied by a handpainted watercolour of Happisburgh, where much of the story takes place.
3. cirrus mercurio sends greetings from the HISM
self-help guide - LEARN how to harness the power of the cosmos to effect productive assertive action! UNDERSTAND the HISM (human intellicore synaptic mainframe) through the practise of IDCRotSI (Internally Driven Cosmorphic Realignment of the Synaptic Interchange)! REBUILD your linguistic foundations to engorge the cosmos within!
4. postalcards
a set of 16 A5 postcards, illustrated on one side, short fiction on the other. originally I had intended to publish the month of stories I had written a couple of years back as a set of 31 postcards in a presentation envelope but the printing costs were very expensive, and many of the stories far too long to fit within the limited word count necessary for such a small vessel.
5. herman henschel koprowsky's encyclopaedia of imagined objects: fuckpillow (with an introduction by nicholas flower)
a slick edition of this seminal work with an introduction exploring the absolute futility of my own writing practise. the encyclopaedia and koprowsky are both key elements in the novel I am currently writing, an enormous and erotic work of myth and literature and the fragility of truth, and a book about writing books. it is the culmination of my extensive norwich work which I may finish within the year (though I doubt it).
6. herman henschel koprowsky's encyclopaedia of imagined objects: barry chuckle's experience projector (with an introduction by nicholas flower)
see point 5 (though the introduction to this object explores in brief the place of the encyclopaedia within the canon).
7. I would like secretly to fuck you
delirious and scornful poems of seduction and collapse (with an intense yellow cover).
8. the evolutionary necessity of the avoidance of I
death of pleasure/no more feeling/maniac reminiscences/of a nobody.
9. narratives from the fenland township
obliquely charting parson grunther's steady rise, this collects four narratives from the fenland township - the crows what came, the great british carnival, the idiot child and the hungry earth - in one minimal volume.
10. animal police
work of the famed norvic-neo-noir subgenre (of which I am the only practitioner), this gathers both extant animal police stories in an act of complete posterity.
11. X44 – NOR – AYL – CRO – SHE
a dissection of regional bus travel in the almost rush hour of norwich city and environs: driver, passenger, reflection.
if you'd like to buy a copy of any of these, contact me.
It's also been a way to get back into drawing my stock-in-trade "so weird they're shit" portraits.
Here are a bunch of them.
