From Epic to Labours to Saga: Myth-Making
From Epic to Labours to Saga: Myth-Making One of the most fascinating aspects of myths in general is how there are so frequently variations of the “same” stories. I mean this in a few senses, but, primarily, consider, say, the stories of Heracles and Hercules, and, secondarily, consider Joseph Campbell‘s concept of the monomyth. I’ll…

A Note from the Author on Method
A Note from the Author on Method I’d like to tease a few points about this work-in-progress. These are “The Revelations of the MERCANARY™” … FIRST REVELATION I am not mad. While this is a project that plays with themes of identity, psyche, dreams, the supernatural, and more, I assure you that I am deliberately…

THE EPIC OF THE MERCANARY™
https://problematicpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/screenshot_20200521_130504.jpg THE EPIC OF THE MERCANARY™ In the digital age, and within Instagram as a medium, I assert “The Epic of the MERCANARY™” is an epic memeoem. Specifically, it is an appreciation memeoem sequence that spans 100 slides. Duration of the experience varies by viewer, but it is at least 25 minutes from start to…

Preliminary Context and Clarity
https://problematicpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/img_20200514_123611.jpg Preliminary Context and Clarity Before diving head first into the deep seas of writing (and promoting) this gonzo picaresque novel, I want to provide a little more context about who I am in a clear and distinct voice. My voice. Not the narrator’s. I’m a child of rural Newfoundland in the ’80s and ’90s,…

A Calm Before the Writing Storm
Photo Title: “Distant. Yesterday, I believe.” https://problematicpress.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/img_20200517_105557_447.jpg I present this pic in which I look half sensible since my social media content over the next few months may appear rather mad. Most of that content will appear on my Instagram, and some of it will trickle over to Facebook or ProblematicPress.com. Tune in or tune…
