I'm a writer who lives in Central Illinois. The monotony of my cornfield surroundings contrasts with the vividness of my dreams. For the last five years, I have been culling memories into fiction. Most of these experiences were imprinted on my mind when I was a wandering teenage hoodlum. I continue to shape and reshape these memories; the characters follow me through life, and they're always changing. I look at this project based on my alter ego, Lethe Bashar, to be a work of archeology(www.lethebashar.blogspot.com). I keep returning to who I was during those years of my youth, and exploring the people and settings I came into contact with. I believe that ongoing and unfinished narratives are more interesting because they mimmick the open-ended, unstructured Novel of Life. I've just begun to explore the world of fiction blogging, and see many possibilities.

Read the elaborate personal mythology of Lethe Bashar. This is the perfect germ of the interlinked fictions . . .
"It seems I 've been recording this tale since my mother and father started f**king. By the time I was rolled up like sock in my mother's womb, the story was already writing itself. You know all these events seem to happen to me. They just happen. That's the sum total of my wisdom."
