And So It Goes

Posted by S. C. Green on March 11, 2008

Life can get so busy when you’re not expecting it.  Those times you are expecting it, it tends to be even busier.  I had hoped to have at least one of the three short stories I’ve started, finished by last weekend.  No luck.

I’ve gotten far with one though.  I might try to finish it tonight.  It’s a little darker than I feel right at the moment, so I might need to put it off for a day or two.  Then again, who knows what my mood will be like by this evening.  Another of the three ideas I know I’m going to shelf for a while.  At the time I thought of it, I knew it would be a great story.  I still think it is a great story, but I can’t get myself into it.  So it goes back into the idea file for some later consideration.  The third idea stems directly from my current job and a previous world I created.  “Fantasy Farce” I call it.  The first story is called Ogreman Industries.  The gist of it was a job interview gone awry.  I’m considering revising it and posting it here.  Check back for updates.  The new story, as yet untitled, will have to do with a certain job within Ogreman Industries.  I laugh to myself whenever I think about it, which doesn’t necessarily mean it would be funny to anyone else.

So there you have it.  A list of things to write.   A novel to revise.  So little time to get them all done.  Whatever I do manage to complete, I will be sure to let you know.
