Spending time camping & reading (Patreon)
Content
Spent most of this weekend camping and reading. Didn't do any writing but I did read 7 out of 9 entries which puts me nearly at the point where I'm ready to start making choices. Some good work there, some stuff that might be good with some polishing. Perhaps the biggest mistake I've found is a misunderstanding of the System , sometimes people forgetting things that have been explicitly stated, other times just misunderstanding because of the pace of change and, in a bunch of cases, just a lack of information.
If/when I do the next anthology, I'm going to make sure a wiki is up first. This is entirely my fault, so I'm willing to work with people on this, but it pains me that others have to do extra work because I didn't put in enough work beforehand. Heee.
Went camping back at Haines Junction / Kathleen Lake. Pictures are on FB, but it was fun hiking up. We did a camp talk with the park rangers, and I learnt something really interesting that will end up in a short story.
Which is beginning to remind me (again), that I need to get out. The more things I do, the more talks I see / read / etc. the more I learn. And that can help influence writing.
