Welcome to the Macabre Mob

Musings, reflections, and the occasional story from writer Jonathan Gensler

Climbing into a New Skin

I am writer Jonathan Gensler, and I am here to tell you a story.

1. What am I doing here in the dark?

I am here to tell you stories: dark little bits of my past, or wild imaginings pulled out of the gaps between realities, and maybe the occasional warning about what path you most certainly should not follow into the mountains beyond the city gates.

I plan on sharing my thoughts on books, movies, travel, and video games that I have loved or despised, and the stories that spring to mind from my accumulated experiences.

2. Let’s find one another in the shadows

I want to connect with those of you who see the darkness in people, places, and situations around us and choose not to ignore it. We sometimes fight it, sometimes embrace it, but always recognize its presence in ourselves and in others.

I write stories about what happens to people when their paths cross with tune unfathomable, with the mundane, with the majestic dark. If you are here, then I assume you like to read and ponder these things as well.

3. What can you expect to crawl out of the darkness?

I plan on adding to this stack of digital musings on a monthly basis at the very least, with background notes on at least one published short story per month on top of whatever else comes to mind. As we dive into the life of this new being, we’ll discover together what works best for you, and for me.

All content will be free for now. If that is ever going to change, you will be the second to know (I’ll be the first).
