  • Digital to Analog

    College is not proving to be exactly all it’s cracked up to be for Seth. His only relief from classes, loneliness, and asshole peers is his online friend, Atropos.

I work so hard in arranging the blocks

About a year ago, a brilliant video showed up on youtube: “Complete History Of The Soviet Union, Arranged To The Melody Of Tetris”. Starting slow and increasing in speed, of course, this gentleman conveys a history of the soviet union.  Catchy tune, excellent lyrics, fantastic video.  No matter how many times I watch it, it …

Finished those three things. *Whew!* I feel so… unencumbered. The current plan is to finish revising The Park (the real title of which is going to be Casual (Sex) Friday) and then… I’m going to finish Fairytale Fusion, gosh darn it! I don’t think I’ve talked about Fairytale Fusion much, but it’s a piece I’ve …

More Thoughts on Sadness

Posted in: Evie's Musings|Tags: emotion, show not tell, showing, writing|July 5, 2011No Comments

The question of “showing” sadness continued to plague me last night. Then I thought that maybe “showing” sadness is not the right way to approach this, at least for me.  For writers who can show sadness, call me.  Let’s chat. I want to pick your brain. It occurred to me that perhaps instead of showing sadness I …

Show not Tell… Sadness?

Posted in: Evie's Musings|Tags: emotion, show not tell, showing, writing|July 4, 20111 Comment

In the latest piece I showed to my critique group, I was particularly concerned that a section was melodramatic. Not only over the top emotion, but over the top of only one emotion. One of my critique partners said that on one hand, it didn’t seem melodramatic, but on the other hand, much of the …

Butt in chair, hands on keyboard

It’s hot here! Holy moly. In the 90s all week. At least the humidity is low. Anyhoo. Courtesy of a few self pep talks, I seem to be getting words on screen. In the past two days I’ve added ~9.8k to one story. All to the soundtrack of Fleet Foxes’ Helplessness Blues. Tomorrow, I’m writing …
