Whychock
Whychock is a continuation of Thinkfank (thinkfang.com), a book of psychedelic Gen X poetry by me, Frank Edward Nora, host of The Overnightscape podcast, on Onsug Radio (onsug.com). The project began in the early 1990s as Superior, and was a regular feature in my ezine OsoaWeek, starting with the first issue on 7/28/94. Over the course of its run in OsoaWeek till its end on 2/16/03, Superior went through three more phases: Parking, Duskaway, and Hurricaner. A fifth phase, Thinkfang, began on 6/19/04 and lasted till 12/2/07, with the last poem suggesting an addition phase to bring the total number of poems to 1,254 (209×6). This then, that that final phase, which took over seven years to complete. The final poem was finished being written on 7/27/24, making the total length of the project exactly 30 years.
But that’s not all! This year, 2024, I began a process to review the entire work, and remove any text that I felt wasn’t good, to arrive at a new version that would hopefully be much better, on the whole. This new work is called Whychock Revival, and will be released later this year.
