The romance was a little awkward and clumbsy but the idea is sound, and even seems to be leading to the idea of recurring versions of it. Sort of like a series of mini romances. I even see an over arching pattern to them. I just don't know if I have the genre feel right just yet. I think I'm going to have to do a bit of reading to get the feel, but once I figure out how to polish it all up they should turn out nicely.
On another note I figured another way in which to use the second person future narative in a completely differant genre, sort of a spooky sci-fi, twilight zoney way. That's sort of fun too. It's not something I can see doing again or carrying into some over arching storyline but it's kind of fun.
Next after those two I think I'm going to play a little with non conventional fairytales.
Few. I have to admit I was getting pretty down there for a bit. I had ideas, and time and access, but the magic, the inspiration was missing, I was really worried that I would be able to create anything. I don't know what it was that floored me like that but it was rough.
I just had to get up and moving, warm up a bit from the cold rainy weather and get something (though admittedly with my illness not much, and hardly intresting) in my stomache. Plus once I got going on it it worked itself out a bit. Though I did do the cardinal no-no of any writing work, I let the inner editor use backspace and chage things around. The point is supposed to be to just get the work out and fix it all later. The more you let hook you from behind the less forward progress you make.
So on that note onward and upward.
until next time (should be tomorrow or saturday, but between travel and events going on might be as late as sunday, I'll try not to let that happen though).
Take care of yourselves.
Roving Jack.
