A story about the will? Doesn't sound particularly exciting or extraordinary.

Maybe not. Depends on what a person goes through to discover their will.

I see. You mean a will to live?

Yes.

And that's what American Loser is about?

Primarily, yes. About discovering how powerful a person's will can be.

That's certainly more interesting. Who might read such a story?

Someone who's been in pain; who's questioned their own existence and considered maybe not being around tomorrow.

Anyone else who might like this story?

People amused by extreme behavior: sexual oddity and odysseys, drug use, and other absurdities that arise from passionate living.
