[short stories that desperately want to transform into completed novels...

...but is that metamorphosis possible?]

unifinished

incomplete

endless

imperfect

partial

that's what you are about to read here

a handful of these

unfinished

incomplete

endless

imperfect

partial

stories

novels that never became

ideas

seeds

fragments that never blossomed into

anything

beyond a few pages

that never got off the launching pad

so

in order to find some semblance of closure

i included them here

sewn together

a mosaic

a tapestry

a collection of patches

on a frayed and tattered quilt

that maybe...together...make up

something

meaningful

[there are two different covers for melancholy butterfly...but they are the same book. the text in both books are the same. if you saw the black cover...and then this one...and was like "huh...what...huh...what...i don't get it!" so i hope that helps make it clearer.]
