Trying out a new weekly thread idea.
This would be a thread for anyone working on personal projects to share their progress, and hold themselves somewhat accountable to a group of peers. We can coordinate weekly standup type meetings if their is interest.
@ArjinFerman, @Turniper, and myself all had some initial interest.
Post your project, your progress from last week, and what you hope to accomplish this week.
Jump in the discussion.
No email address required.
Notes -
I'm touched to be called a fellow writer, I just dabble.
In the context of Watts, I follow his blog, and the pessimism is deep seated and personal. Man's just sitting around waiting for the world to explode, and even worse, for the wrong reasons. I'm fine with pessimistic works, hell, I'm sure it's possible to write good scifi that's upbeat, but that eludes me too haha.
I'd say throw them in, it doesn't hurt, and it does help to flaunt that you've done your research. If you want to be really fancy and make use of electronic media, you could pass them off as diegetic footnotes though that'll be a lot of bother.
