Most of the works are introduced with snippets of e-mail from the creators to the editors, giving additional glimpses into the artists' voices and thoughts. Asher and Crumlish have made it a point to present a wide variety of voices, styles, and points of view. The works range from intentionally crude to well-polished and from tragic to comic. The only thing the artists involved have in common is their use of the Web as a means of presenting their literary efforts. As a result, you're bound to have a variety of responses to the diverse works here.
For those who want to jump into the online creative scene, Asher and Crumlish provide two great appendices that tell you how to find good writing on the Web and how to write for the Web yourself. -- Elizabeth Lewis
