My father was a big fan of Louis L'Amour, and based on his biography he seemed like quite the character himself. Once for a publicity stunt, he set up a table in a highway median with a few journalists to crank out another few chapters of his current novel in front of them.

He was also on a first name basis with all the salesmen of his publisher.

Took magic mushrooms and smoked a little weed once. Imagined life as a whole was acne medication for higher dimensional beings. The idea being that life eventually produces dyson spheres which encase the radiation expelled by stars. Once all the stars are covered up the higher dimensional being will be ready for the higher dimensional equivalent of prom.

I was also perfectly content with this notion. It felt both humbling and inspiring to be of some use to a god.

Still not convinced yet though.

These books were the shit.

You ever read any of the sequels OP? The one where the journalist gets struck by lightning and he has to carry his comotose body down river was crazy, but I think my favorite happened to be the alternate ending sequel where the protaganist has to survive well into the winter as well.

This franchise paired well with the Call of the Wild as far as school lit goes.

Wish I never married them
Shoulda seen it coming then
He passed away from flesh decay
I wish she'd also rot away.
Contemplable stepmom.

I'd actually also be interested in this information. I'm woefully unread when it comes to literary magazines.

It's been that way for a while, but it's still depressing to see. I feel like I'm finally in touch with the oldfags who came before me, looking on in sadness at the sorry state of their boards.

The only reason I'm still here is for the hope. The hope that every now and then a light shines through the ruble of this sordid ruin.

I can only hope more /pol/utants take the read pill.
