Inspiration

I've struggled to find a label for the kind of fiction I aspire to write, so I decided to keep a list of works that inspire me here. The goal here is not to compare myself to these creators, instead it's to direct you towards people that do what I want to do better than I do. Shooting myself in the foot, I guess. 

Here are some works that inspire my own. Some stories told in really interesting ways: 

• House of Leaves - Mark Z. Danielewski

• Sleep No More - Punchdrunk

• The Beginner's Guide & The Stanley Parable - Davey Wreden

• Her Story - Sam Barlow

• My Father's Long, Long Legs - Michael Lutz

• Gone Home - Fullbright

• The work of Jorge Luis Borges

• The work of David Mitchell

• The work of David Lynch

• The Dionaea House - Eric Heisserer

• Rant - Chuck Palahniuk

• S: Ship of Theseus - J.J. Abrams and Doug Dorst

• Kentucky Route Zero - Carboard Computer

• Night Film - Marisha Pessl

• 17776 - Jon Bois

• The work of Don Hertzfeldt
