From a Kwal Paint sample catalogue and its ridiculous names of colors (is that pink really 'metaphysical?' Why is the 'ninth century' blue? And 'excite,' 'sizzle,' 'flush,' and 'privacy please' make me very concerned about how you view pink) spring forth a host of micro fiction behind the names. Journey into the past, out of this world, and everywhere in between with the Paint Swatch Files.

InkeQuizzles and Chocolate Cake
Welcome to the strange nonsensical world full of the almighty Inkequizzles and evil Chocolate cake, extracted from the colorful universe of my very own brain. The chapters of this book don't follow any particular storyline altogether; they're mostly my workings of the art of nonsense. Vignettes, short stories, games, freeverse "poetry", rants, pretty much anything I can think of. I hope you enjoy c: -Armo SchmuttyComplete

Fragment: The Color Out of Space
The first time I saw the color, I thought it was a sign that things were going to work out. How could I not see those vibrant purples and cobalt blues framed in a swirling aura of chimerical colors lighting up the rumbling midnight storm clouds as a bad thing? How was I to know then that this color composed of many, but still one, was an omen while the world around us burned? That it wasn't to be our rainbow from God signaling our salvation from the madness that consumed those outside our borders? That the hues I failed to recreate with my crayons and pencils on the floor of my brother's cabin would twist and corrupt everything bathed in its light?Complete
