I'm a hobbyist writer. My literary influences are Dostoevsky (is my favorite author, even if I technically only read people translating him), Camus, Sartre, Gogol, Lu Xun, Chekhov are all there. Sometimes though I write something more akin to Seinfeld or Black Mirror episodes so I'm probably also heavily influenced by modern media, especially movies and TV. I do gotta read more though...

Just a writing blog. Uses Meranda as a template, and I did some programming to make it functional/usable for me. I might incorporate something to keep track of revisions for the stories since they really are drafts that I might change heavily, or even subsume into another story. Feel free to reach out to me at madoriginaltrying@gmail.com. But I might not respond too quickly.
