I'm Obsessed With Serial Killers - Comments

I have a teacher who knew Jeffrey Dahmer. Personally. Lived about a block away from him when they were kids. She has some fucking interesting stories about him! Its really neat. Kinda scary.

Yeah, I've had crippling writer's block with this story for quite a while, but I feel like it's starting to come back now. The last chapter, hopefully, will be the only weak spot.
I guess time will tell.

Must be why I enjoy your story as much as I do. We are one in the same in some aspects of life.

I know exactly how you mean. But they always have said writing is a great outlet. You can be anything in a story.

I did, in high school. Not anymore. After I graduated high school I went to work as a photographer and passed on continuing schooling. I always have had a natural understanding of the human mind, though. I don't see things as most do, but I figure that's because I look deeper into things; I look deeper into the mind that created A.

I liked the update, but I feel as though you're struggling. I could be wrong, but I get the sense from you words.

I'm glad I can do that for you! (:
Gah. I really need to continue this story.

I love the way you write. It really makes you think, and I can relate to this sadly. Feelings that I can't seem to express without feeling like an utter freak. Ha.

Ah, yeah, sounds like my life, haha.

That is true. I think there's an extent where a character can be taken not from the authors true personality, but also from those they spend all of their time around (granted, it still gets morphed...) That's true, though. I guess Nyxon is just the side of me that I really can't show anybody (for obvious reasons)

Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoy it. [:
Do you study psychology or philosophy at all?

It happens to me too often. I keep my thoughts to myself until I can't handle it anymore.
Hm. Sounds interesting. I'll have to check it out.

The way I see it, every character that is 'made-up' is really just a personality within the author. Nyxon is a part of you, you just might be putting too much attention on that part of your personality. That could be why you feel that way.

This is, by far, my favorite story on this site. Anything written with such a psychological connection and philosophical voice is amazing in my opinion.

Ah, I get like that too. /:
White Noise is kind of a commentary on life. It's a lot of philosophy on the fear of death, or at least that was my favourite aspect of the book. It's about a college professor who teaches Hitler studies. An airborne toxic event covers his town and an evacuation is forced to occur, and when it is over he learns that he has had enough exposure to give him a sort of a death sentence.
There's so much more to the story though, it's hard to explain, that's just the very very basic skeleton.

Oh, thank you! Sometimes I feel like I might be putting too much of myself into my character... other times it seems like I'm putting too much of him into myself...

Don't worry about it. When I breakdown, I can't handle anything. I need to sit in silence or it will get worse. .-.
I've never heard of that book, what's it about?
I liked this last chapter. I like the thoughts Nyxon was having, and how it's things everyone thinks about at one point or another (maybe not exactly, but to an extent). He's just- he's such a real character, I love it. <3

Ah, thank you so much!!! <3 I almost feel bad if my writing is evoking such responses but at the same time it's kind of what I'm going for.
Man, I seriously need to continue this.... I've been reading White Noise by Don DeLillo this past week. SO AMAZING.
Anyways. Thank you! (:

I really do love this story. I love the way you write it. I love Nyxon, and his struggles. I love how real it all feels, and I love how inside Nyxon's head we are. But I must admit, it has taken me a bit to read the chapter because when I tried the first time, I wasn't emotionally stable enough, and it made me breakdown more. I suppose this proves I can only handle so much.
Anyhow, point is. I love it. You're amazing.

I guess that's true, I'll just tell myself he would be proud. :3

Awh, thanks! It means a lot. I'm glad it's still holding up to itself ^^

Dahmer.. He seems to come up a lot in my life, so it's odd that you'd choose him. Not that I can't see why you would. This does seem a bit down his alley.
You write really well, so I'm sure he would have enjoyed it. Though, to be honest, I doubt it would have ever gotten to him. They check everything that goes in and out of prisons through mail, and I'm sure a story about a serial killer (real or otherwise) is not on their list of things they allow.

Anyhow, as always. Your writing is amazing. This story always seems to make me smile.

Haha, so true!

Just thought of something on that last chapter. 'You are what you eat.'

Thought about how its taken in the literal sense in this. :)

I would, too.
It's too bad Dahmer's been killed. I'd have loved to attempt to mail it to him. Not that he'd read it, with the loads of fan mail serial killers receive, but one can dream.

Thanks! [:

That would be quite interesting, though. Having a murderer being amongst those who read this. I'd adore to know how they would take it; their thoughs on the whole idea.
That past chapter, I liked it. Sometimes the simplest of things leave you with the most information.

Yeah, I totally agree!
I don't know if I would be flattered or worried if a real-life murderer was reading my work... Probably a bit of both, haha.
Also, thank you! [: I'm glad you're enjoying it thus far!

I can understand that. I'm sure no-one but someone who has actually done it will truly know what it's like. Therefore, the majority (if not all) of your readers would have no idea if you're correct or not. Not to mention, blatant lies can be written into works yet believed because of how they're written. You're a wonderful author, so no matter what you'd write, it'd be believable.
Anyhow, I adored your past chapter. Giving more insight into Nyxon's character -I believe- will really help throughout the story. If you don't know the main character(s) through-and-through what is the point in reading?
