W<\/span>hile I’m a few hours ahead of the game, I’m making up folders and setting up the mechanics of hypertext output as much as I can for those times when story just won’t roll out easily. While I have to wait for the impetus of Steve’s daily story to grab onto something that sets off the process, I have an old file of one-liners, story starters, that I may dust off to give me a starting point if there’s something that meshes with the concept of what I’m trying to do.<\/p>\n

I’m also taking advantage of the time to go back and proofread and I’m glad since the hypertext process seems to have me coming up with some real amateurish errors. In the last story I found that I hadn’t switched tense on one of the lexias after I’d decided to go to the present. With the hypertext element enough of a mind bender with its space and time and character changes, this kind of overlooked error is deadly.<\/p>\n

On the fun side, I’m looking forward to playing more in the magical realism world. My personal favorite story I think is #19 The Perfect Woman<\/a>. It was wonderfully unstressful to let imagination run the story and just let the characters learn to cope as they went along.<\/p>\n

I’d also like to include more images and need to sort through some old shots of myself as a kid to Photoshop since I don’t steal off the net nor do I want to use photos of my nieces or nephews to put online. I love working with Photoshop so that’s not the problem–it’s finding and scanning in the pictures. The other thing I need to look into is setting all the story files into a Tinderbox<\/a> shell instead of having them in a regular folder. It’d be neat to be able to connect them maybe even by links to specific areas of pattern someday and turn the hypertext project into a coordinated opus. Mary Ellen<\/a> would just love getting lost in that!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
