When I wrote this story, I was 17 years old. I'd been reading Borges and Cortázar. The name Vinukonda came from a small dot on a page of a world atlas.

Vinukonda
I was paging through the first volume of my journal today and was delighted to find this story, written by hand on February 8, 1982. I had forgotten its details and didn't know whether a copy still existed. I decided to type it up on my trusty RNP7 and publish it in a way I couldn't have imagined back then.

ReplyDeleteWhat just happened here?! Kudos to 17 year old You for surprising the heck out of me and pouring on the weird. Reminds me so much of a recent read, "The Willows".
ReplyDeleteOooh, horror! Surprising and delightful :D
ReplyDeleteAnd I was considering what meeting Mr. Powell would be all about. Nevin never.
ReplyDeleteI suppose Powell is a sort of Godot.
