The Desk.

It turns out I can write. The sociology midterm exam essays I just wrote sound like something straight out of a doctoral thesis. Let's see if I can expand this talent elsewhere. So now I'm in the process of writing my piece de resistance, an atheist propaganda novel. I shortly came to remember that I have not the capacity for writing fiction, nor propaganda. I decided instead to write things that actually happened. Not quite an autobiography, I proposed to write a story containing all the interesting things that have happened to me as if it were on a single backpacking outing. That could be an interesting jaunt, but not really feasible, what with all the characters and settings I needed. Unless I was willing to mix things up a bit and have it all "based on a true story." I don't think that's me. I then decided the book needed some kind of common theme, a thread, if you will, to bring it all together and allow it a point. It came to me: all the sermons I've given, and all the remotely religiously related experiences I've had on camping trips. Perhaps a simple collection of tales, perhaps a look into how I came to be an atheist and why it's so much fun. Either way I need to find some way of making it universally relative and entertaining to people other than myself. And make it more than just a bunch of Watson stories. That's the hard part. It'll probably never be finished, and I'm not sure it'll ever really get started, but it should be good for me, you know, on the inside. The title, you ask? Liturgical Equity. Think about it.
