As you have no doubt deduced, I have been rather busy lately and this leaves me with very little time to write. Between work, the kids, and general house upkeep I find myself short on time. However, in the interests of me not going insane from pent up creative energy let us do the following:
Suggest a topic, story, or other such creative endeavor you would like to see me whip out and I’ll write it for this coming Wednesday. I’m going to leave this wide open to your suggestions, but here are a couple of things I have clanking around in my head in case you’re interested.
1. A big review of “The First Law Trilogy” by Joe Abercrombie in which I will hopefully avoid being a dick by making the review solely in world and not about Joe Abercrombie. It’s strange, but looking back at the reviews I’ve done (even though they were positive) I find myself nodding and saying “Wow, what a colossal penis you are BC Woods.”
The review will involve people being saved by dolphins.
2. The time my dad kept using racial slurs at my NASA scholarship interview.
3. A fantasy story involving a call center, and probably Thor. I don’t know. I haven’t peeled this onion yet but I have a feeling if I started writing on it, I would write solidly for eight hours and end up with a novelette at the end from out of nowhere.
I’m a feast or famine writer.
4. A horror story, involving some kind of small company that sells something. This involves the internet, rape, and an possibly the worst and most vulgar form of revenge I can imagine.
5. A fantasy story set in my fantasy world. I have no idea what it will be about, but I’m sure I can dream up something.
How will I pick the winner? Good question. I have no idea.
It’s whatever looks good when I go to start putting words down on paper, but I like hearing from you guys and maybe I’ll get nudged one way or the other.
