Bio
Aloysius T. Mapani recently celebrated his 10000th day on the globe —a feat which sadly does not translate proportionally to having acquired enough useful knowledge of the world. Aloysius suffers from idea-litis, a condition which makes him think of ridiculous, at times brilliant but probably useless ideas at inopportune times. As such, during his formative years he developed a love for reading and writing. Now, when he is not looking at the greasy (sometimes immaculate) innards of diesel engines he spends his free time trying to articulate his ideas in literary form for the reader’s enjoyment. With his fiction works and poetry he aims not to be didactic but rather, to simply entertain and explore certain themes and ideas with the reader. However, as is the nature with all writing, a writer’s philosophy bleeds through everything he touches. He hopes you find something you enjoy whether it is flash fiction or poetry.

It was an old friend, one who had always been there. It was the only friend he truly missed —the only memories that were still intact.
The old man sat by the large glass doors of his hillside home, entranced by the overseeing eye of the moon. These last few months he had been spending more time up here than anywhere else...

Ellis returns to his hometown Salles to find a gibbet erected on Salles hill. Adding to his distress is the identity of the individual who is about to be hanged no later than the very next afternoon -Eleazer Menzies himself!
Ellis must come to terms with the events transpiring within the next few hours before his former friend is towed into eternity. And as if this wasn't troubling enough, talk of the occult and that unmistakable fog Ellis sees engulfing Salles upon his return seem to be foreshadowing an even greater tragedy.
