The book you are holding is the fleshed out version of five novellas Michael Timothy McGuire first began writing in 2011. The Will and The Won’t, A Way To Go Sideways, The Way It Is (And The Way It Never Will Be), Oh Yes or, Pink Lady, and Mason, follow characters and situations derived from real life events, including those that Michael may or may not have imagined, and generally speaking, not many of which ever actually existed or occurred. Even so, The Supposed So is brimming with truth, and is as close as one can come to fully understanding psychosis without the real life experience. Michael’s work – including his music, short stories, and poetry – has been featured in various forms in various publications, and is collected in its entirety at thesupposedso.net. He is 32 years old and lives in Worcester, Massachusetts with his fiancée, photographer Allie Tsubota.
