Statement Of Intent

"owynz-WRRKZ" is simply a stylized spelling of "Owen's Works". This moniker was selected because Owen is the name that my two parents gave to me in this lifetime; and the writings, drawings, & recordings that have taken shape over the course of that lifetime represent my tangible works. (Though they can only hint at the immaterial ones!)

Ripening alongside my experiences, I believe these "fruits of my thoughts" are finally ready to be "plucked" from the "branches of my brain" and shared generously with the wider world.
 

There is much that could still be said, but I will limit it to my intent: My stories are stepping-stones. Not destinations. Thus, for anybody who might become inspired by them, (whether to take the next step from where I have left off, or to diverge onto a totally new route), please be forewarned that a significant portion of my own lifespan was spent cocooned in creating these things as a coping mechanism to deal with the world around me, and that from my personal experience as such, I would dissuade you from repeating that if possible. (Yet I am also entirely sympathetic if you did decide to keep this chain-reaction of inspiration going.) Ultimately, I would advise you to forge your own path, wherever it might lead, even if my works were useful in pointing out a direction to begin. The main threat would be using these stories as distractions, rather than as beacons towards the true destination.
 

While my hope is that these works are somehow helpful to you, (in whatever manner, whether intended by me or not), they have already served their purpose to completion for my own existence; so by bringing this self-imposed mission to its conclusion, I will finally be free to move on.
