 Cryptobiography is a mostly falsified record of a childhood spent deep in the forest. Any mystical events are almost certainly the product of an overactive imagination. Look for the truth at your own risk. Cryptobiography will be a series of stories posted bi-weekly, starting with today’s prologue, for the next year. The purpose of these stories is not to provide an accurate and factual account of the events of my childhood – while autobiographical to some extent, they are not what I would present if ever asked to write my own biography. Instead, I am attempting to recall things not as they happened, but as I experienced them.
I am well aware of my own unreliability as a narrator. I was a child with an extremely over active imagination, and was prone to creating all kinds of magical explanations for things. Cryptobiography, rather than dismissing these flights of fancy, asks instead “but what if?” For a taste of things to come, please head over to the prologue, which will give you an idea of the sort of world my childhood self lived in. The short stories that will be published following it will be both longer, and more peculiar. Now - go, see what you think. It all begins here.
