- I missed the writer's group scheduled for yesterday. This group has value for me in that I realize I'm not the only person writing into the void in Lawrence, and that there are some really, really talented folks out there around the block from me.
- I missed because I was spending the last of my holiday weekend with my son and my wife and I did do some re-writing on an old story that's coming along very nicely. I was writing this morning before I came to work, too.
- I didn't mean to miss the group meeting, it just happened that way.
- I struggled with whether to re-write this story or just heavily edit and landed on the side of re-writing. I'm glad I did. I think it's working out way better than the first four drafts did. Even the draft I previously released into the wild pales in comparison so far.
- I love books more than comics right now. It's never really been that way for me, but my post earlier today should give you the reasons why. Add in that I want to be a writer and it makes sense that I would want to read more, and books have more words, hands down, than any comic book. Even one by Alan Moore.
- Hey, check out my friend Brad's
cool new website even though it's "under construction". I like the framework he's built already.
- Lastly, I'm going to the Campbell Conference this week, so I'll be all scifi'd out. That network can change its name if it wants to be a complete wuss. Verne, Wells, Heinlein, Asimov and Sturgeon are all rolling in their graves.
