This is Not a Mosquito!

Attend a writers' conference and meet an unbearable woman; move out in the woods with a couple good ol' boys to talk about what happens at the moment of death; meet a hard-luck woman who gets mixed up with the mob; witness a miniature mosquito-like creature; drop deep into the swamps to meet Granny Mose; subject yourself to a new kind of ink blot test; meet a man in an airport who will render you normal; lie mute and unmoving as a spider transports you to the next world; live and run with the wolves; and strive, strive to meet a goal as a writer and fail, badly.
