The Worst of Bad Horse

This is a most peculiar book. Some would call it a writing manual. Some would call it a system of philosophy illustrated with ponyfics. Some would call it the delusional ravings of a crackpot. But it is definitely 54 stories, scripts, and poems, and 25 essays (21 new for this book) on writing, art, history, and why everything is Plato’s fault, by the ever-unpredictable Bad Horse.
