Shameless plug: I’ve started a second tumblelog, this one dedicated to creative writing. There will be a lot going on there eventually, but for now, I’ve started off with a sci-fi/fantasy story about an unusual hunter of the damned. You can even influence the story with comments. Tell your friends.

etrangere:

From the brain of Christopher Lindstrom. Socrates is rescued from his execution and abducted into the future, or something like that. An excerpt:

A man in a dark robe walked down slowly. He carried a torch which dimly glowed upon his face. Socrates recognized this man immediately. His name was Thrasymachus and he was a total dick….One time Thrasymachus was telling Plato and the gang that blueberry ego waffles were the best kind and Socrates had to step in. He argued that blueberry waffles are okay but the cinnamon sugar ones that are actually four small square shaped waffles are indeed the best. Plato then argued that in a fair and virtuous state, every man had the right to their own opinion.

This is great.
