It’s not every day I get inspired to write a story. Sure, I have ideas for stories all the time. Not a day goes by that I don’t have some idea for a story. Now, whether or not I end up following through and writing the damn thing? That’s a discussion for another day.
Recently,
put out a call for writers of horror and dark fantasy to write a story. On the surface seems simple enough but what makes this one so freaking unique is the theme you get is based on your subscriber size! I almost wish I had come up with that one myself…So, if you’ve got under 200 subscribers your theme is “Small & Scary” but, if you’ve got over 200 subscribers then your theme is “Big & Beastly.”
That left me with loads of ideas that involve big beasties and finally someplace to possibly use those stories.
If you watch the VOD above, you’ll get to see me in the most raw and true way, share my story ideas and walk you through my process for selecting the story I ultimately will end up writing.
I gave myself 5 to choose from (and between you and me, I came up with another one several hours later) where I talk it out with myself, and those who were present with me. In the end I think I made the best decision.
Next step is to work on writing the damn thing now that it’s fully outlined. This weekend is pretty busy for me so I don’t think I’ll start writing it till next week where I hope you’ll join me while I host a few writing sprints.
Till then, are you participating in this writing collaboration? What story would you write? Share in the comments if you want. My story, should I write it in time, will be released here on May 27th!
