Here it is folks. “
The Bog“. It is the culmination of nearly six months of 10 minute spurts of writing, sometimes going weeks without touching it. At first my goal was to hit 3,000 words, then it was 5,000 and then somewhere in there it kind of exploded to over 7,000 words. This was suppose to be my pre-lead up to the lead up to NaNoWriMo. Meaning I should’ve had a story about twice as long done before now to start on the bigger project of attempting a 50,000 word project. Too many things got in the way, too many things to go into. Most of it was my own stupid fault. Nevertheless, November is here and while I won’t be participating in NaNoWriMo, I am not going to stop. So maybe next year then.
As for the story itself, again its a different form of writing with a different tone and a different perspective. It’s all about experimentation. For the first time I tried using names, and there’s a small amount of character development… all in all it is a good first attempt at a first draft.
The map kind of sucks, but that’s what happens when I am concentrating on the words. Next time around I want to finish the map first. Then try writing.
Enjoy, “The Bog“
