More Writing

A while ago I started writing some fiction. I did a revision and then stopped for a while. Now granted… there was a bout of ye-olde-black death that I had in February. And then March was a bit busy.

The other reason I delayed making more fixes is that I was hoping to install version control on my server. This way I can look at each revision and see what changes I’ve made along the way.

Today I posted version 3 of my chapter 0. I’ve made some more modifications that I’m fairly happy with.

If you’re on my writing filter, you should already see it. If you’re not and you’d like to be.. Please comment and I’ll add you to the filter.

Creativity?

When I was a kid (and I mean ‘kid’) I was writing a story called “The Bridge” At the time it was (to me) a neat concept. While the media hadn’t been created yet, it was one part “Tomorrow People” one part “Doctor Who” one part “Quantum Leap”. Interestingly at the time I’d written it only Doctor Who existed.

As shimmeringjemmy can tell you; I’ve never considered writing my forte. Most of my posts over 1000 words often have to go through her to be converted from Andrei into English.

In college, I went into Directing because.
-I didn’t have the talent to do sets, costumes, or makeup beyond a passable level.
-I didn’t have the looks or business-machine callous destructiveness to be an actor.

But most assuredly… I never really thought I had it in me to really be a writer.
Why, wherefore, and where it’s leading
