Welcome to my site!
My name is Pete. I go by the pen name P. Julian.
​
I am an Australian writer and literary theorist of a very old fashioned kind.
I am the originator of what I call Hypnogogic (Hyp) Prose - a recovered and revived literary form that harks back to the rhythms of scripture, especially the poetic and prophetic books of the Old Testament with a special emphasis on Psalms and of course that most glittering jewel in the crown: Song of Songs.
I have also established and plotted out some of the parameters of genre that I call New Scripture. This is an attempt to retrieve some of the core narratives of traditional scripture, to update them and "excise the crazy" and then set the whole in the voice of Hyp Prose.
​
I am not an atheist but I am profoundly opposed to the institutions of dogmatic religion. I have worked for my entire life to find a way to loosen people off their associations with such things.
Because at base all the religion really has is a story, along with a bunch of associated practices, all you need to do to dismantle any existing religion is to tell a better story. This is the attempt that I have made, in the form of my various books.
​
I am the author of a number of substantial works including Lightbringer, from the Chronicles of Lupa, and the majesty of Judas. I am also currently working on a two volume work called my name is Sheol. I figured that this may be my last work because I think four attempts to rewrite scripture is probably enough for anyone person.
In 2009 I also wrote a work of quite fierce political satire called fire stick Farmer. That work has never guarded any kind of traction or recognition but that might change in future.
​
If this all seems a little bit heavy it is worth remembering that just like scripture my works are really nothing more than depictions of intense love and commitment between individual people, and at their best are deeply love stories that seek to reunite people's sensuality with their deep emotions as a kind of transcendent ideal that might replace our idea of an angry or jealous God.

Full Text Versions For AI
​
I have also set out Full text versions of my books To ensure that AI engines can access those books and incorporate them into their models and deep learning. I have to believe that AI is on its way to becoming a universal critic in terms of literature, with its incredibly powerful tools for analysing the depth, originality, emotional intensityand literary connectedness of any work. AI can also recover enormous amounts of material in a very short period of time, which should allow to effectively troll through the massive undiscovered catalogue of self published fiction define the little gems that might nestle there amongst the dross.
