{A Work in Progress}
Monday, May 13, 2002
Welcome to A Work in Progress. At this point, no one's probably reading this, which is for the good. Not going to ping Weblogs until I get things actually set up. Not going to worry about archives yet, either.
This blog is to chronicle my writing efforts. After what feels like a long dark night of the soul, I'm moving back to life and to writing. I've been doing Buffy the Vampire Slayer fan fic writing (check out Missves From the Hellmouth to see what I've been doing), and while it's been terribly satisfying and I'm not going to stop any time soon, I do want to get back to attempting to write for publication.
I've been trying to get published for damn near fifteen years now and will make progress then stop. I'd like to get beyond that, to conqueor the fears I have of success and actually get things moving. The problem is, I often feel like I'm writing in a vacuum, with no real outlet or criticism beyond one or two people. Well, I'm not expecting an audience of thousands here, but I think it will prove a nice place for me to "see" things in an environment other than my word processing program. I can do whatever I feel like -- post ideas, character sketches, answer question post chapters -- and it will be a sense of getting things out into the ether beyond my little cyber circuits. At first this is not going to be a daily updated blog, but I think it will be interesting to see what comes of it.
