#personal context

[gigachad-joker]

There are many things I have to come terms with, with my autism over the years but the one thing that will always have me cringing in the supermarket everytime I think back to it is my inability to hold casual conversation where the conversation begins with a question that leads to me reciting a story and then the other person begins to ask me questions about the story I just recited in response to their original question and I cannot give them the answers they are seeking because I just told them everything I personally know on the matter in my story and now the other person begins questioning whether I even know what I’m talking about and it gets so awkward.

PERSONAL CONTEXT

why are you interested in this? what can you bring to this area of investigation? is there anything from your earlier work or life that could help inform the project? what appropriate skills do you have and how could they be used? how can irony or humour be used?

Some write to free themselves. Others write to entrap. Sometimes an author accomplishes both. HoUse of Leaves [1] encompasses both, though I would not have disCovered the freeing aspect hAd I not pursued a face to face coNversation with Mark Z. Danielewski, the author of House of Leaves, a book that has thoroughly trapped so many readers.[2] A book this complex, this challenging,[3] must surely have a tale of equal merit regarding the cirCumstances under wHich it came tO be. The stOry of how Mark Z. Danielewski came to write HouSe of Leaves doEs not disappoint. The book itself, if you can call it simplY a bOok, has turned ten years old, bUt it began life ten yeaRs prior to publication, so by all accounts HoL is old enough to go to war, close enough to drinking age to be allowed, and would definitely be considered an "old soul". Over the course oF two hours Mark and I discussed a great many things, but the genesis of House of Leaves is by faR the most interesting. Let's have some fun...

I'm beginning to suspect it may not have been something personal. #haiku
