The Original
INTRODUCTION
by
Dragon of Nexus
The stuff you'll find here will sometimes be funny, sometimes  wistful, sometimes  barbed, even angry on occasion. As time goes by, we'll be collecting work from poets and writers from many different cultures, all with their own unique backgrounds, with their own stories to tell, and their own way of telling those stories. 

I have my own pet definition of what constitutes 'good' writing, be it poetry or prose, and that is simply that the story told draws a reaction from the reader, has some kind of emotional effect - be it laughter, tears, or anger. It may even provoke a thought or two.

Information for Contributors: 

Any and all contributions are, of course, most welcome. We offer no undertaking to edit in any way whatsoever, neither do we have any restrictions on content. 

In other words, if you've submitted a work with typographical or other errors it may be published exactly as it was received. The literary world thrives on wordplay, and words get bent accordingly. Only the Author really knows which words are meant to be bent and which ain't. However, our proof-reader will gladly fix any errors if needs be, and reserves the right to fix any obvious spelling or typographical errors. Send email as below if you've spotted a mistake in your own work. Comments on the possible errors of others may be ignored. 

If you have a contribution to offer, please include as much detail about yourself as you'd like to be made public, and let us know what name you'd like to be known by and whether or not you want your email address to be published. See below for copyright details. And don't forget to include the submissions themselves in the main body of an e-mail. Attachments are no longer acceptable thanks to the virus ridden environment of the net. Any other format will be looked at quizzically for a moment and then chucked out.


All works herein remain Copyright © 1998-2004 to the Author and Scribble Publications. If you'd like to use any of the works featured here, permission can be obtained by emailing either the author or me.
