the reason why i am here
01Apr14
I blog to not just post my stories but to also share the process that goes into writing them. Over the last 14 years, I haven't gotten around to publishing any stories, much less finishing what I have stowed away in my computer, along with printed pages of stories that date back before those 14 years, as well as a desk drawer full of scraps of papers with ideas of stories scrawled on them and usually forgotten after.
In time the idea is to post here daily, sometimes it's more of a journal entry like this, other times a writing prompt I try to give myself every night before I sit at my old desk and try to write. A lot of the time it'll be old and new stories that I'm working on, sometimes it'll be notes and ideas, other times drafts that I'll keep coming too.
The story I am planning on posting tonight is essential a draft. This story is essentially the prologue to a string of flash fiction tales under the umbrella title, "The Door Past Monday," The theme is a string of tales involving the same character and always beginning or ending with him entering a door. The prologue is entitled, "Patience," and it is one I've previously posted on this blog.
I think I'll add to this string of stories every Tuesday since it is a tale that other spoken word performers have asked me to tell every Tuesday night at Espresso Gallery during the poetry night with the Jazz Poets. Tonight, I am going to miss the event, but in exchange I'll begin the story, again, on this blog on Tuesday night (or very early on Wednesday mornings).
