UPDATE: The Sky Inside Me
Ah, hello. I see it's been a while.
I've gotten a demo version of one episode (starting close to the middle and working out from there) of the new project, The Sky Inside Me.
Taking what I learned from The Well, I'm recording smarter, working with Creative Commons-licensed sounds from the web, and rewriting and rewriting and rewriting. I'm very pleased with what's happening so far, it's just slow. Honestly, this is a better form (the shorter 'song'-style, is what I'm calling it) for me to work in. I don't have to have more than five or six pages of script, I can record a pass or two in an evening and then spend a weekend as I have time laying in and mixing sounds. It's more fun, and quite satisfying when it's done. Fits in with what I'd hoped to accomplish with Knight's Tour by now. (KT isn't dead by the way, just resting. I wasn't ready for that one and got ahead of myself. Go figure!)
Thanks to everyone who commented on The Well. I'm really proud of it, and if you liked that at all, this one'll be a lot better. I'm going to launch when I've got six episodes in the can so I can work ahead a bit. Maybe release in 'books' or 'seasons' in chunks of six episodes that'll fit nicely on a CD.
Plan is for three CDs total.
I owe my friend Kirsten an email, and several others. I am not hibernating, only distracted.
More later, less soon.
