What I Wrote In 2008
Posted by HED
Time to disclose what I have been writing in 2008 ! I realize I didn't talk much about my writings.
Writings in English
- Random Innocent People (Novel) : Finished the first draft for NaNo 2007. I wanted to rewrite it instead of doing NaNo 2008. Did a very detailed outline. But I didn't participate into the social side of NaNoWriMo 2008 (word wars, forums, daily reports of what I wrote) and I guess that's the reason why I failed. The rewrite amounts approx. 20K words.
- MIAMI (short story) : In summer 2008 I wanted to write something about... sun, beaches, nightlife... But seen by someone poor and jobless.
- Cosmic Divide (short story) : I started this project in December 2008. Wanted to do a short story taking place in a dream world, with "spirit" characters and improbable powers. Just put a few hundred words on it.
Writings in French
As I am French, I'm writing more pieces in French than in English. Without going into details, here what I wrote :
- I created a PDF magazine for my IRC friends. It's called RBD Pride. It's full of funny IRC quotes, articles about video games or hand made crosswords. Take a look at the website : http://rbdmag.hed854.net.
- Wrote one non-fiction (about early 90's computer science, BBS etc). Weighs 20 pages and I'm rather proud of it.
- Tons of journaling (my waking life, my dreams, etc. !)
- Various outlines for novels or short stories.
Next time I'll tell you about my writing resolutions :D
