only my personal notes ... collecting ideas

[–] its_me_xiphos@beehaw.org 2 points 4 days ago

I'm new here. I've sat on short stories and some other works for too long. I've been writing a children's adventure story which started as a gift to my kid. I finished rewriting it and completed a first draft that I'm going to table and come back to re-read.

In the interim, I started writing a sci-fi novella based on academics facing authoritarian takeover and punishment. Something I sadly know a little about.

I’ve been toying with expanding a short serial I wrote a few years ago, and had an idea how I could tie all the plot points together nicely. So I charged up my freewrite and am going to see what I can get done during vacation next weekend!

I’ve been working on an epistolary horror novel told in the form of letters. I was worried about it at first but It’s been pretty fun and interesting to use this format!
