It's the syndrome where you read something, realize that you could do it so much better, and then have to try it out for yourself. I'm sure that imitation is some form of flattery, but this is the feeling of being so enamored of an idea that you have to make it your own and play around in it.
That's more or less what's going on with this next piece. My plan is for the Ministry of Lost Things to be a detective-type story or series of tales with a light tone, with themes of friendship, what is materially and immaterial important, what is means to be alive, and dreams.
Yeah, I'm working on Callahan (how can I not be?) and I'll also be trying to get some revisions done on Argent and Crane when I feel like it. I'd also like to try and get more into the short story scene, which I feel I haven't been as into as I might have liked to be. Anyway, news and results posted here. Currently, I just have a lot of stamps ready for submissions.
I'm also going back to my poem-a-day exercises as well to see what I can whip up.
In other news, playing a cleric on a D&D game to great effect.
