SOME WORDS FROM ALLEN ANSELL (OUR ‘ADMIN’)



Hello. I am so pleased that you have stopped by to have a look around Parapraxis.  

Sadly I have to tell you that due to my health, Parapraxis will shortly be taken permanently 'off air'. It has been a fantastic experience for me. It allowed me to achieve one of my most cherished desires of helping other writers have their work showcased for the world to read.

As the saying goes, all good things must come to an end.

In closing, may I also say it has been a privilege to have worked with so many talented people from locations all around the World.

I continue to write so maybe we will meet up somewhere on the wild world wide web in the not too distant future!

So, Adios Amigos... Until we meet again.

Blessings and love,

Allen


The HISTORY of Parapraxis

Parapraxis was the 'brainchild' of Allen Ansell, it's admin. It had two incarnations since its inception, this, the second and latest, is about to close it's doors.

Allen interpreted the word parapraxis to mean 'a slip of the tongue' and at the time of naming the site he had his own tongue firmly planted in his cheek!  His idea was to create a place for publishing his own writing all in one place after thirty or more years of having it spread around the internet on various and varied writing sites.  For most of that time he wrote under the pseudonym 'Griffonner', and indeed still does from time to time. Here on Parapraxis you could say the mask was dropped as all his featured works are attributed to him under his real name. 

So that, dear reader, was the origin of the site.

It wasn't long before Allen invited other authors to put their work on the site too, it added variety to the style and content of the web site.  That proved popular and the site became open to submissions from anyone who registered their interest in Parapraxis. 

The site was always evolving and was always open to suggestions, which resulted in one of the easiest to navigate of it's genre.
