Proving it

Last night I finished writing a short story I’d been slowly working on for over a year (wrote the first bit of it right after I got back from Chicago). I added a short epilogue today, and typed the whole thing up. It’s about 7,000 words - 17 single spaced pages. I’m […]

Cell Phones Put to Novel Use

I love reading about this sort of stuff:

It’s especially effective for intensifying the thrills of a horror story, said Satoko Kajita, who oversees content development at Bandai Networks.
The Tokyo-based wireless service provider offers 150 books on its site, called Bunko Yomihodai, or All You Can Read Paperbacks. It began the service in 2003 and […]

Obviously, this is still in very early planning stages. The basic idea here is to publish spoken word stories and slam poetry on Mperia. There’s a lot to be worked out still.
1. I’d kinda like to do only stories, […]

New issue of the Corpse

By the by, the new issue of Exquisite Corpse has been out for a couple weeks now. Haven’t had time to read much of it yet. Theme seems to be work. Looks like the good stuff is here.

Transrealist Manifesto

Transrealist Manifsto by Rudy Rucker [PDF], thanks Sauceruney

Transrealist novel grows organically, like life itself. The author can only choose characters and setting, introduce this or that particular fantastic element, and aim for certain key scenes. Ideally, a Transrealist novel is written in obscurity, and without an outline. If the author knows precisely how his or […]

eBay fiction

Before I left for Europe, Brenden sent me this listing for a haunted wine cabinet on eBay. A few months ago I posted this ghost in a jar on Technoccult (the listing's not online anymore, though). I don't remember what…

The Writing game: who wants to play?

So remember back during the summer when I was talking about a writing game? Well, Brenden and I have started to figure the story out, and now we're wondering how many people would like to play. We're going with Abe's…
