Regarding tne short-stories target for the year, I’m on track. I have eleven complete stories drafted and one more in progress, with two months to go. Note that there’s still a ways before I hit target, as the original plan was to only count stories as done when I am comfortable submitting them places. I’m only at that point with a couple of these. So there’s editing binge coming.
\nHere are the titles, just because:
\n– “The Tape”
\n– “Buckets”
\n– “Babel”
\n– “The Twelve Times I Drank Too Much”
\n– “Lift Story”
\n– “The Apotheosis of Melvin Rameka”
\n– “Inappropriate Boss”
\n– “The Intervention Upstairs”
\n– “The Confession”
\n– “Box Takes A Honeymoon”
\n– “Perfectly Right”
\nIn progress:
\n– “Walking story”
\nNote that “walking story” is one of the really early ones that I wrote and then decided was unsalvageable. Well, I think I’ve figured it out. This revision keeps the characters, the critical incident, and about 20% of the opening sequence. Still working on it.
\n“The Beast” comic ticks along. Met with artist yesterday. She’s done with exams shortly and can then start working for me like a galley slave. *plots and plans*
\nSinking energy into revised script for “Affair of the Diamond Necklace”. More on that soon. Spent half an hour today chewing over one line of dialogue – it really needs to drop heavy, and it was defeating me. Think I solved it though. Might change mind tomorrow.
\n“Ron the Body” er. Yes, well. Everyone knows it will never be published I think I will burn it yes I will burn it
\nStill noodling on “Lament” role-playing game idea.
