| Introduction | My name, for all intents and purposes, is Leonard Kirke. You may call me Leo for short, if you prefer. I am an unpublished author who has anxieties about my writings being published commerically, should the opportunity ever arise. My thoughts are frequently preoccupied with questions of an existential and spiritual nature. Soren Kierkegaard, Franz Kafka and Osamu Tezuka are my primary literary inspirations, though I also have much fondness for old gothic novels and children's stories. Lastly, I work as a janitor at a church. I enjoy my job very much. |
