So I sort of cheated.

After someone I knew drew a really good picture of one of my old characters, I was inclined to draw a picture of that character as well. So I did that in place of writing today. Don't worry, I have been writing on other days, but for now here is this picture I drew today.

Sterbende Welt: Entzwei Zeit Legend (Edit 1: 05/22/2011)

Do you recall a time when the world was vast and uncharted?
When days could pass without another person seen?
When civilization was young and fractured?
Do you remember those days?

In those days, the world spun unerringly forward,
Singing a song that became life…
Isn’t it something? How the world has become smaller…
Nations rise from the ground and house the multitudes…
Knowledge and Magic are but playthings to those whom dwell here.

In these days, however… something is missing…
Everything that draws breath eventually turns to dust…
Returning to the song of life, their essences weaving into the harmony…
But what if that song where to come to an end?
But what happens when harmony becomes cacophony?

Lamenting in song, a sorrowful light spreads over the lands,
Illuminating wherever life dwells.
The world has indeed become smaller, hasn’t it?
There is no place unscathed by the hands of people.
And the result of prosperity isn’t always another voice to the song…

When the curtains begin to fall, those whom raise their voice in song will be heard once more.

Welcome and Writing Plan.

Welcome! This blog will be used for the purpose of posting my writing from my new Writing plan. Please take your time to read and comment on what I will be posting!

Among the greatest casualties of working 80 hours a week is my writing. To be totally fair, it's not as if I was writing as much as I should have been before my job situation hit critical. So I've decided it's high time to remedy this situation. It will be difficult to fix with my current situation, but I'm enacting a plan that starts now, and will expand when I have a single good job again. Here's the plan as it stands now.

Starting Apocalypse Day 2011 (05/21/2011)

----------------------------------------------------

On days where I have a shift off, for at least half an hour:

On days where I have two shifts off, at least two hours:

-Edit my short story "The Staircase" till I am satisfied with it.

-Edit or completely rewrite the backdrops, legends, and lore for

"Sterbende Welt", and rewrite them into story form.

Starting once I have a good job again. (Hopefully Soon, but who knows?)

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

On days where I am off, at least two to four hours a day.

On days that I work, at least an hour a day three days a week.

-Finish any of the above that are not completed.

-Transition usable parts of "Chronicles of the Savage Lands" into

"Sterbende Welt" as the existing writing of that story influenced heavily

the creation of later.

-Write "Sterbende Welt: Entzwei Zeit" into novel form.

-Write "Sterbende Welt: Huter der Alten Toten" into novel form.

-Edit the above two novels into publishable form.

-Reedit the "Sterbende Welt: Huter der Alten Toten" game to

publishable form.

That's the plan so far. I will likely open up a private blog to put up my work as I progress. If you want access to this blog, let me know either by commenting below or sending me a message.

Of all the things in my life, writing is the one creative pursuit I feel I have actual talent in, and I've let that talent dull for to long now.
