thanks for the encouragement! watch this space for more news on my descent into fiction-driven madness. do you have any projects that you're particularly excited about at the moment?
I'm working on a 4-book series that's combines past/future story lines to contemplate the story of New Harmony IN. So lots of research, difficult to plot stuff that often devolves into chaos and self-doubt... the usual! If this internet stranger can offer any support, I'm here for ya!
Congratulations on a rich year of exploration and connection! I was amused to see that we started our Substacks at nearly the same time. Your retrospective inspires me to take a look back and a peek forward as well. Thanks and enjoy your well-deserved time with family and rest.
I did the same thing a few years ago. A worthwhile read. I took a break in the middle to let some light in, because it gets dark in the middle. There is so much novelty and truth in it.
thanks Dave! you're the real hero for spending any of your sleep-deprived, childless free time on my weird scribbling. i'm happy it's been an entertaining diversion at the very least. looking forward to seeing you all again as soon as possible. Happy New Year!
I’m glad to have stumbled across this corner of the internet this year! Happy New Year to you and hope your months off allow you to catch up and be restored in other parts of your life.
Congratulations on a year's worth of met (and exceeded) goals. It was great to have the chance to work with you.
thanks friend! looking forward to seeing what you're working on this year.
As someone who can only seem to write book-length stories, I feel you. And I want to say go for it. Longform tales are ridiculously fun and rewarding
