I need to write, and I need to be organized about it. I’ve been thinking over the last few weeks and have done a lot of reading on the subject. It all boiled down to one thing, do I want to slog through letter after letter and do it the old fashioned way, or just work on something and release it into the wild. I’m not saying I’m a great writer, or even a good one, but I know that in the past, there have been people that liked what I wrote.
Yesterday, with some poking of the husband, I got a drupal install over at melissathornton.net and have decided to shift all the whinging about writing and the actual stories themselves over there. There is a plan in place, and there won’t be a lot to see or even read for a while yet, because I’m still working on the first big story. I’ve determined that having 50,000 words of something is worth pushing on and seeing where it goes. I want to run it by a few people and get some basic editing done before I throw it out there to the world at large though.
So if you’re not interested in that bit of what I do, then you are going to be relieved to know that it’s going away other than the odd update here to say that I posted there. If you might be inclined to watch me have a mental breakdown over fictional characters, you may want to check there on occasion and see what happens.
