Welcome to Future History, Fictional Reality. With this new blog I hope to achieve the following:
-Combat
my chronic procrastination. While I love developing interesting
characters, settings and plots, sitting down and putting them to paper
(or word processor) has always been a struggle. Still I've managed to
write more in the last six months than in the last six years. The main
reason being- accountability. I participated in NaNoWriMo this year and
it galvanized my writing. I had goals to reach and I had a community
to share them with. I’ve stayed in contact with members of that
community and they’ve helped me keep up the stamina (somewhat).
-Shameless
self promotion. With this blog I hope to generate interest in my work
and my writing. I’ve been living in fantastic worlds, inside my own
head for years. Now that my writing is becoming for prolific, I’m ready
for others to start exploring these worlds with me.
-Networking.
NaNoWriMo and the community I’ve since joined have been invaluable. I
hope to use this blog to connect further with that community.
-Archive
my work. I will post writing here that I have posted on other blogs.
These flash stories are often posted as replies or comments, so I will
post them here so they can be found in one place.
I
am passionate about science fiction and most of my work will be in that
genre, as you might have guessed from the title. However, I do try to
branch out when the spirit moves me.
If you like what you read, please comment. If you don’t like it, please comment. I am very interested in getting feedback.
I
would like to thank Rebekah Postupak and Susan Warren Utley,
co-founders of Shenandoah Valley Writers, for their support and
encouragement.
