WRITING: & Projects

I won’t go over the whole thing again here, but on Hypercompendia I posted about organizing my efforts, both in hypertext and traditional, in Tinderbox and what that has revealed to me: the need to write more regularly and edit or toss old stuff. What I think I’m going to do through this summer is write a short piece daily–I’m better with deadlines than leaving it up to my own lazy self–along with this year’s 100 Days 2010.

It was an intense but productive summer last year and I don’t think I have the drive and confidence to make myself do it unless I believe that I’m supposed to (there they are again, the black shrouded nuns of my youth), and I’m easily fooled into believing whatever I choose.

There are currently about a dozen story files on my desktop that range anywhere from an opening sentence to a fully complete (but not something I’m happy with) story. In a main file, there are dozens of stories that I really need to rewrite or just inadvertently drop into the blackness of lost.

And I will have to clean some stories to the point where I’m just so anxious to have someone read them that I’ll submit since I haven’t submitted much for a while except in a few spurts of ambition.

Should be a fun summer.
