Lost Stories
Everywhere you go in human society, just beyond the corner of your eyes and under every step you walk are tendrils of the past, of futures that never happened, of broken things, and of things not born. They’re all lost stories. Some of them can nearly push themselves into reality. Writers, artists, musicians, lovers, and the thin spaces of the minds of the mentally different are all places where a Lost Story can become real in one way or another. Don’t you want to get your sheepskin? Don’t you want to finally be a real story? That’s what all the other Lost Stories call it “Getting the Sheepskin”.
