For those of you who haven't read Volume One of these tales, or
perhaps have come to Volume Two after a long break and need a
reminder, I'd like to take a moment to explain myself.
I've had an odd life and decided that I should write about it
before it goes away. But at the same time, since I've had an odd
life, I've decided to write it under an assumed name. As
you read more of this, I'm sure you can guess why.
Similar, too, I've decided not to use the real names of those I've
met, those I've loved, and those I've loathed. The goal of my work
here isn't to dish on people but to explain my life & times in
the hopes that you might gain something from them. Perhaps some
insight, maybe some humor, or possibly you're reading it just to kill
some time between meaningful moments of your own life.
So when it comes to pseudonyms used in this text for other people:
I'm first introducing them in single quotes, to make them obvious,
then just using them as names in the continuing text to make them
flow better in the prose...
I'm such a proser!
