Once upon a time, I used to write quite a bit. Hell, I wrote a book... Once. I created my own world, gave it history, creatures, even Gods an religion... Once.
I can't remember the last time I really wrote anything. I used to have a pretty nice scrap book in the form of my Crossology zetaboard forum that at least had tons of information and showed progression into stories, the universes they took place in and the characters that were wrapped up in them. Then it crashed and most of that work and all of my poetry more or less went kaput. Gones-ville, man. Gones-ville.
And since then, I really haven't been able to recover. While the poetry is gone and there's very little I can do about that, the information for my universes still hasn't made it's way back to the new Crossology. As a matter of fact, some things have even been changed and the only way I know that is recalling the ideas in my head. A head, might I add, that is constantly plagued with a million other non-writing ideas [mainly due to the fact that I have something I didn't have when I used to write constantly; A life]
So, this idea, this "proposal" is my way of attempting to force myself back into the writing scene a bit. More or less, I will give myself 30 days. Each day, I must somehow come up with some new form writing content. Meaning anything from a short scene to a character biography to even an entire chapter of one of my books. I haven't quite figured out the "rules" yet, but I'm thinking of doing a certain amount of words or a certain length of paper. Some standard rules are obvious; Default font and font size. No unique spacing or formatting.
These content pieces shall be put on Crossology, where I will even write a lil "blog" style piece for each bit of content, but I will, naturally, link to them from here [with the blog post here as well, probably]
Thoughts? Ideas for rules? Questions, concerns, gripes, complaints?
Answers?
