NOTES ON STYLE
This is the section of my website where I set out various notes and materials explaining the foundations of my work, the literary style I employ, and the hopes and aims that I have for my corpus.
Much of this material focuses on the literary project of New Scripture and its rhetorical engine ​that I call Hypnogogic Prose: an updated and democratised form of the rhythmic and gentle hypnotic speech used by various parts of scripture.
​
It is important to note however that my books are also plain old love stories and can be approached in that simple way, albeit with slightly unusual rhythms of language that can take a little getting used to.
​
Here are the notes! If you want to read more there is lots of material on my blog and I also write about these things for Medium if you want to follow this link to their website.
