I'm just being nosey and wondering what everyone's up to lately with their writing. Do you have several projects on the go at once or are you focusing on one particular story?
I've three stories going on.
The follow up to Bedtime which atm exists only in my head.
But it's pretty much all worked out and I'm looking forward to writing about The Twins again.
The next story I won't say anything about as it's going into a competition first.
I'll just say it's almost finished and I expect to post a slightly adapted version on storiesspace sometime in July.
(I'm sure you'll get my drift there)
+ I've another little Flash Fiction story to write about something very ordinary that happened only this week.
It's very sweet and it won't take me too long.
So with those three I'll complete the collection of stories I planned on posting on storiesspace when I first joined.
But I've no plans on stopping of course...
I'm currently looking to finish my Accidental Detective series which may take a while as I don't want to rush it. I'd rather it be good than just churned out. I've submitted a poem to the National UK poetry society website. I'm looking to play around with form in my poetry so I'm going to try work on a series of them over the next few weeks. I'm limiting my prose work at the moment as I'm looking for inspiration and more available time. Real life tends to get in the way most days.
I have two and a half stories going on right now, all not family-friendly.
I'm working on a novella that I hope to have sold this year, and four final stories that I'm letting everyone read for free. After that, I have to concentrate on my writing and real life projects I have going on.
I'm working on a story for a writing course application.
It's due in May and I want more than one story to pick from.
Also I thought I might write a story for the new beginnings competition.
If you can read this I'll enjoy your company.
1) Something for the New Beginnings Competiton - it's about time right?
2) My travelog - A set of writing call "Atmospheres" - to go with my photos.
3) My fiction - my version of Red Riding Hood- who knows where that'll go!
Whew!! Seems like a small but daunting list!!!
Hi! I just joined a blogging site, so that's what I'm doing! I'm also writing a short article for Highlights magazine. I got the idea in the doctor's office~I have a question, if you don't mind that I put it here. I don't know where else to put it. How can I attach pictures to my stories? Can you do that here?
Hi Janina,
As far as I'm aware there's no way to add pictures to stories on this site. I've sometimes created banners for my stories and used them as my forum signature or posted them on my profile, but if you're looking to use pictures to illustrate your story then you're out of luck I'm afraid.
You could always post your stories on your blog with pictures. A lot of people here are bloggers too.
Good luck with your articles.
I'm trying to focus on the 1st draft of a new novel. It's a tie in with a film and upcoming web series from the website I help run - The Great Escape. We're trying for this whole "Transmedia storytelling" thing so eventually there may also be related radio plays, comics and stuff. It's an exciting project.
No, but I love panda bears, I have a panda bear hat I wear! I collect stuffed panda bears and panda bear figurines! Oh well, maybe they could come up with a way you can attach pics to go with your stories and poems? The visual element is often a nice addition to the verbal element.
I like that word, panda. In Greek, πάνδα. It means forever.
As for projects, it's either the moons pull, the new song I discover, or the feeling I get, just because.
I just try to listen to the waves.
