So after a spate of recent writing and activity here on Mibba, I've decided to revive one of my old unfinished stories and finish it off. I have three in mind, but I can't decide which one to tackle first:
Pear is the story of a boy caught between two loves, and two selves: he is offered the choice to regress to safety or move forward in to an unknown world.
Marrow is an exploration of health and sickness, as told through the story of two neighbourhood boys at varying places in their own health and stability. I have the option of making it more abstract, but at the moment I'm thinking of keeping it more straightforward. Dark.
Sherril is the story, set in 1963, of an 18-year-old girl obsessed with the glamour of Hollywood and the trappings of fame. It's an exploration of the entertainment industry, drug use and mental instability, and the manipulation of people willing to go to any length to get famous.
Does anyone have any suggestions about where I should start?
I'm going to keep a Master List of my current work here for my own reference:
1. Dreamscape - status: COMPLETE
2. No Other - status: COMPLETE
3. Stephen - status: COMPLETE
4. Every Man I Fall For - status: COMPLETE
5. Heavy - status: HIATUS
6. Pear - status: TBA
7. Marrow - status: TBA
8. Sherril - status: TBA
Hope everyone is going well! The world is a strange and scary place at the moment. Big love to all of you.
