Here's the start of one I recently begun. It's only a short way in, so if you wish to read more, goto opuspath.com and check it out. Note,...
I've been churning cra... er, highly intelligent writing for a while now, so thought I'd share some of it here. Why not already. I mostly...
I agree with the sentiments above. For me, it's never lost the olde Choose your own path paper versions flavour. I also see it as more of a...
Reasons for torture. Oh, so many. However, top of the head... Fun, sexual kicks, to extract information, to get revenge, to make a point,...

I do this sometimes, mainly in comedy for effect. I've had a run on London cockney type accents recently, which I've had to watch in case I...
