Strong stroll for a mangy stray

We never received any mandate from Lowtax or anything like that. I just write the stuff I think is funny, as I've been doing for the past ten years.

You are absolutely hilarious and I actually came to the forum to make a post about your pizza propagandist. You mined the poo poo out of that vein, no missed opportunities and no flat jokes; fantastic.

I just got liminal states how good is it genuinely?

Hello, sir. I am an enormous fan of Zach Parsons and I enjoyed reading Liminal States, although not as much as most of his other material. It has great scenes, great ideas, pretty good characters but I found it to be a bit scattered. Perhaps there were too many of the aforementioned great things mixed together. Perhaps a bit too serious as well because for me his best work mixes horror, absurdity, and humor. This is honest criticism of a book I definitely finished til the end and enjoyed.

My favorites definitely Convict Connections, instructions for a..., Gentle Creature, the really dark one with alien "angels" and their adversaries.

A funny Parsons anecdote, I was browsing BYOB which I had almost never done before and was reading through a thread. I read a certain post and it was so hilarious and uniquely written that even though I had no idea what his screen name was, I knew it to be his work. I don't think many writers can claim having that kind of truly unique, immediately recognizable style.
