About Me
"An EGO Dream Game," a NOVEL, is the story of Caleb Gish and Chadwyk Hall, innovators of grand aspiration who settled for less, sold out in the face of capitalist allure. They, with a group of other narcissistic artists, become anarchists and bring down Big Business, inadvertently challenging God and the universe by arrogantly recreating their city and manipulating its citizens for, as they in their delusion see it, the greater good.The cult of artists, inspired by the writings of excommunicated provocateur Bela Ungaro, become each other, with help from a little magic pill, literally delving one another’s subjective experience, and thereby discover that throughout the ages they have been continually reincarnated to play out humanity’s follies in forever failing to atone for their sins.At its core there thrives a homoerotic love affair that has endured two thousand plus years. "An EGO Dream Game" deeply investigates the necessity for artists to suffer as they encounter obstacles in the face of the commercial marketplace and the willingness on the part of society to be manipulated by its governments with a corporate agenda. The story asserts that in order to be truly free of the establishment one must go forward with an aggressive pride, celebrating the singular value and contribution of the self. Does one stay safe, conforming to the demands of the institution, or does one make life happen with bravery and vision on one’s own terms?On the most personal note, "An EGO Dream Game" also looks into the envy and the strife born of the protégé-mentor relationship and the value and the damage of such selfish egotism.Literary. 64, 000 words.
