I've reorganized my to do list so I feel a bit better.

I dropped out of the fantasy shared world anthology. Great bunch of people, but I just wasn't feeling the story. It felt weird dropping out of a paying gig. But I do feel better about my bootcamp.

That leaves for writing boot camp:

1. Quality of Mercy: Old west horror story.

2. Revamp of On the Edge of Darkness

3. The First Principal of Power

4. In US, Gods Trusts

5. Deep 7 Freebie with Mean Streets

6. Write a story inspired by a famous director. Not sure how to do this one. I'm thinking Hitchcock, but I don't know which one.

hey whats up? I deleted one of your postings to my livejournal, I didnt mean to but I had to delete my own post and it deleted all the follow up posts. I posted something I shouldnt have, so I deleted the post, edited it and then re-posted it.
i didnt want you to think I was a dick head who deleted your post or anything, sorry about that.
you have work up at corpsefuck? that site rules, I have a lot of stories there.

what do you mean by bootcamp? are you in that Borderlands Press bootcamp program for writers in Baltimore in January? I'm signed up for a short story writers "bootcamp" run by them, are you talking about the same thing?

number 6- is that for that new anthology from the Poe's Progeny editor? a Hitchcock story would be excellent. Probably a lot of people who will read that anthology think "Scream" was the first horror movie ever made or didnt know that the new psycho was a re-make. I feel old

Hi!

No problem. I understand.

My bootcamp refers to my week's vacation from 12/26 to 12/31 where I'm trying to write full time. It has been somewhat successful. I should have 1, 2, 3 and 5 on my list done.

Yes, number 6 is for that anthology. I think I have a decent angle for it.

I do have a story on corpsefuck. It was a piece that was too off the wall to go anywhere else.

I did submit to Red Scream, but never got an answer. Sometimes these things go crazy like that. The piece ended up at Chainsaw Magazine.
