Damon ThomasDamon Thomas is a sixth-generation Floridian who grew up on the banks of the Suwannee in rural Dixie County, FL. A kid there once burned down the Scout Hut. An old log cabin in the Cross City park. When asked why he just said that he was bored. All from the area could relate. Small town boredom. Rural gloom. Damon has released 30 Spoken Word albums & 9 books on life in that Southern Gothic setting.

Damon ThomasI grew up on the banks of the Suwannee in a very rural Dixie County, FL. Dixie County is a real place. It only sounds like a Faulknerian construct. I share short "Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead"-like stories now on how the bookish might pass time in that Southern Gothic setting. Record myself reading them as Spoken Word albums. Self publish books via Amazon. https://ruralgloom.neocities.org/ I live and work in Jacksonville, FL. #introduction #WritingCommunity #writing #SpokenWord #SouthernGothic #RuralGloom #FlashMemoir
