Fledgling Listing: This project is new and has been listed with us for less than six months.

About

Many historians have studied remarkable humans: Alexander the Great, Elvis Presley, or Indian mathematician and astronomer Brahmagupta, our chosen subject's personal hero. But the epic tales, great romances (Elvis notwithstanding), and crashing falls have been done to death—so we turned our attention to chronicling the life of a completely unremarkable man: Bing Guff.
Yet because he hews so close to the median in every respect, there are many Guffian stories that are not only untold, but totally untrue.
It’s with your help that we hope to uncover some of those stories.
To convince our shareholders that Bing Guff is a subject worth studying, we’re soliciting stories, poems, plays, drawings, photos, and art of any kind that includes Bing Guff in any capacity, creating an invented history of a man who’s (unfortunately for him) all too real. He can be the main character or he can make a cameo appearance—how much he’s involved in your work is up to you.
