I am loving writing THE BOOK. It’s delicious and flowing like beefy gravy. Brandon and I have both shared our respective initial works with each other. Our writing styles are substantially different. His writing is far more structured and controlled than mine. We were actually discussing this last night, and our own tones are perfectly illustrated in this example:
When I was describing my own writing tone I said, “I just write shit the way I speak” as Brandon simultaneously suggested, “You write colloquially.” Bull’s-eye.
Anyways, Shortbus, writing is going well. Jess Glass is being loaded up with my work as soon as I finish it. Initially, I was going to send her my writing in periodic chunks, maybe every couple of weeks. Because of the nature of the content, I am actually letting her chiggity-check it as soon as I hammer it out. So far, she seems to dig it.
I have set up a word-count ticker on the side bar of this site and a “Book Progress” page. Right now, the “Book Progress” page just has the current word count and a visual representation of my determination. I may include more information on this page as events warrant.
War is cool.
