So, I’ve been writing again lately, or at least trying to. I started a new story a week or two ago. A couple people have given me a bit of feedback, but its always nice to have more. I had thought about just posting what I have to
The story is currently at 9 pages, and I’m going to try to write at least another 3 or so tonight. I’m not quite sure yet whether the final story will actually be a novel or a short story. Ask me in another 10 to 200 pages. (oh, for those who are wondering, this is completely unrelated to the Jack’s Place novel that I have been working on for the better part of the last 157 years.)
So, who’s interested?
I’m gonna go ahead and say, yes, I’d love to read it. I have gotten through about half of Jack’s Place, with comments. I like short(er) stories.
I’m always surprised when people want to share something they’ve just started. That’s the kind of writing I usually don’t want any comments on.
how terribly exciting. I look forward to seeing what you do and don’t like about Jack’s Place. It’s been a big struggle over several years to write that story, so every now and again, I just have to get away from it. I guess what I’m doing now is trying to get away from it, while still being productive on something else.
In some respects I guess I understand not wanting to show something til its finished, but on the other hand, if I show something along the way, then if someone has really good input or finds a huge glaring mistake, its a lot easier to fix than it would be if I’d built 200 pages on top of it. And if everyone says “this fucking sucks” then I may consider not wasting as much time on it. And of course, its not like I can’t just ignore input that I don’t find helpful.
So yeah, I really do appreciate anything that you have to say about either story.

Well, I’ve got far too much to do already, so I’d love a distraction from all of that crap. 🙂 Count me in.
Yes! I am a distraction! What more can a writer hope for!
