I want you to see what is beginning to happen on the Fex & Coo website. You are welcome to join in.

Paco and I have found Fex & Coo to be psychoactive both in writing it and reading it. It has been written in an odd way to be sure. The text has been produced in large measure by the engagement of authentic imagination and it is the spontaneous and autonomous contributions from that source that leaves us feeling more like scribes than authors. We would be delighted to receive contributions from subscribers in whatever form: odd experiences, synchronicities, dreams, imaginal manifestations, etc. So, as you begin to take in Fex & Coo, feel free to contribute.

We would also note that we are interested in the large questions of the nature of fact and fiction in these post everything times, and how the productions of the deep psyche may be our last real resource for dealing with what is coming.

A good example, is this poem, from subscriber Tony A, prompted by Paco's response to "What is Fex & Coo."

THE BOOK
I can't bear to tell people
I write books.
They are always asking - how is your book coming?
Who knows.
Who can really say.
A better question, the only question,
should be - how am I coming?
How is the book treating me?
It's the master.
I am the slave who comes to it
lying flat and still on some
warm table or in a cozy pocket.
I have to come through the cold,
open its brilliant white pages
and become an accountant,
chalking up this experience,
discussing that feeling,
always making problems out of answers,
totaling the days work
and leaving exhausted
while the book grows fat with life.
So don't ask me how I'm doing.
Ask the book.
