“The text of a person’s writing reveals flaws in their thinking patterns, imperfections in personal character, and lack of acumen and academic skills.”
Kilroy J. Oldster, Dead Toad Scrolls

“As a prose mode of expository writing, the narrative approach, more than any other, offers writers a chance to think and write about their personal history and cultural identity. A personal narrative process that constructs memories in thematic sequences represents the fundamental nature of the self.”
Kilroy J. Oldster, Dead Toad Scrolls
