Written Stuff and Stuff

One of the purposes of this blog will probably be for me to talk at ridiculous length about the projects (writing, sketching and otherwise) that are going to end up on the site. I'm pretty sure I bore all my friends to near death by going on about these things so much on my regular journal, so this is a good place to try and redirect all that stuff to.

On fatmanintweed.com, in the hope if generating at least some vague interest, each story is going to have a small blurb. Just being there isn't really going to make anyone want to read them. People tend not to like reading stories off the computer screen as it is, so I should at least make some kind of an effort.

There's a thought...printer-friendly pages.

I think I'm going to edit/redo parts of The Aberration Chapter III (or 3, if you don't like Roman numerals. Why have I been using Roman numerals anyway? I don't know)...possibly even pad it out a bit, although anyone who gets through to the end of the second chapter will still be trying to recover from its stupid length, and will probably appreciate a shorter chapter if they decide to continue with it. A large part of Chapter III/3 was written in a day, and reading through it, aside from all the typos, it definitely shows signs of being rushed. I don't want to slow the pace of the plot, but some things are just a little too sketchy. I think the whole court case definitely needs to be expanded, but maybe the small parts with Master Beef and Phil need a little more attention too.

Well, I'll see how it goes. Consider these notes-to-self. Same for all entries in this blog for the next few months, really.
