Hi...

My name's Daniel and I'm 22 years old from South Africa, Joburg

Before anything, first and foremost, I'm a Manchester United supporter, fanatic, football enthusiast although I watch and know a lot about every sport worthwhile 


I read everything, currently I'm reading Ulysses by James Joyce which is a complete and utter bitch of a novel but I have enjoyed it so far...stream of consciousness novels are nearly as absurd as Harold Pinter only not so looming and violent, Pinter is to books what The Butthole Surfers are too music. Music is probably more important to me than reading and writing because its totally awesome and you can't mosh to a book, now can you?

That was rhetorical

My fav authors include: Stephen King, Harold Pinter, Samuel Beckett, Joseph Conrad, R.L. Stine (Goosebumps!), Edgar Allan Poe, H.P. Lovecraft and the like...

Music, however, is everything: Tool, Slipknot, Bring Me The Horizon, Nine Inch Nails, Enter Shikari, Devil Wears Prada, Chevelle, MCR, Manson, System of a Down, Bob Dylan, Counting Crows, A Perfect Circle, 16Stitch, The Narrow, The Cavalier, Pestroy, Arcade Fire, Led Zeppelin, The Doors, Pink Floyd, Rolling Stones, Deep Purple, Atreyu, iwrestledabearonce, The Beatles, The Butthole Surfers, Dead Kennedy's, Sex Pistols, The Clash, The Cure, Darkest Hour, Deadmau5, Srillex, David Bowie, The Kills, The Velvet Underground, The Stooges, Pearl Jam, My Life With The Thrill Kill Kult, Nirvana, Soundgarden, Pantera, Mars Volta, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Metallica, Mindless Self Indulgence, QOTSA, Radiohead, Rage Against The Machine, Audioslave, The White Stripes, Fokofpolisiekar, Die Heuwels Fantasties, Jack Parow, Die Antwoord, Knave, Chromium, The Smiths, This Is Hell, Serge Gainsbourg
To name a few...

I write for pleasure, not to be famous

Normally I think my works are just fragments of imaginations of experiments that have extremely massive futures before they begin

Works

The Grudge

10 parts / 14 pages, updated Sep 05, 2011R
A group of friends share their stories about growing up from different and diverse perspectives. In the vein of Irvine Welsh's Trainspotting cause that book is phenomenal. Experimental novel.

I listen to absolutely everything you listed in your description. I'm surprised you mentioned The Velvet Underground since they're one of THE most underrated bands ever. You have great taste my friend. 
Ok everyone, so to whoever hasn't read the note I've posted as a kind of transitory chapter in The Super Death Club do it!...or don't
I'm not going to be able to update for like a month but it doesn't mean the apocalypse is near, no, it just means I'll restart updating in mid-August...:D thanks for the support
