New Ideas

This week I played with the idea of ‘writing in the moment’, suggested on one of the blogs I’ve read. They were right. Even if it takes you away from a scheduled task, writing on an idea while it’s ‘hot’ in your mind allows you to capture more of the essence that caught your imagination. This I recommend.

This week the following ideas arrived—out of the blue, in the shower, as I was going to sleep, as I was getting ready to write another story.

  • Chapbook16A: on trolls, to be written under Carlie Simonsen
  • Chapbook17A: two guys get married, to be written under Carlie Simonsen
  • Chapbook17B: an adoption, to be written under Carlie Simonsen.
  • Annual11: all collected short work published in 2012; to be written under C.M. Simpson.
  • Annual12: all collected short work created in 2013; to be written under C.M. Simpson.
