Really Good Writing

"I don't wear rings. I was married. To a Mormon girl."
"What happened? You fuck around?"
"Not exactly. My wife had serious mental problems. She tried to kill me a couple of times. The last time she almost succeeded."
"You're kidding?"
"I never kid, kid. I got a knife scar on my shoulder that says I love you."

A. Ray Norsworthy


"But I hate jobs. I hate offices. I hate driving to the same place every day. I hate publicists, Michael. I hate checking in. I hate smiling at people I don't like. I hate asking Rachel Bilson to tell me her favorite flavor of ice cream. I hate all of it. I hate paychecks and the people at offices who don't mind being at offices. I hate the way that when I delete email it says deleted forever. The fucking redundancy of it all."

Caroline Kepnes


The current edition of Eclectica Magazine is out. And it's a beaut!

hmmm, this writing is not bad. it is intriguing but i wonder if someone not in their line of work would find it interesting. feels specialised a bit to me.
