new writing spell

I’ve been carving out time to write every day again, and it feels great. I find that I get downright pissed when I have time scheduled and I feel the pinch. I’ve started recording the entire writing session. I’ll have to archive them to CD’s eventually. But I think it’s better to “let it roll” and catch those moments of serendipity (formerly known as “mistakes”). Perhaps, too, there’ll be material I can put up online sooner than later. It also feels good to be developing some comfort with being recorded. I still find it a bit unnerving. Since that’s got to stop, I figure – dive in.

I’ve also been developing some promising and exciting ideas around projects to continue building audience and momentum. I’m thinking of starting a “Podcast” – a new kind of audio format that’s something of a cross between an audio blog and a radio show. Although from what I’ve heard, “podcasting” is still nascent at best – most podcasts I heard were poorly produced and not written at all. Recording “Just checking mic levels, here. It’s 40 degrees outside” does not a podcast make. Time will tell if I have anything to say or do about it, though.

My birthday’s on 3/4/5 this year, and I HAVE to do something. I’m thinking of trying to do a show, possibly webcast it. For now, though, I think I’ll go to bed. I’m on day 6 of a 7+ day cleanse (drinking lemon juice with maple syrup, water and cayenne pepper day in and day out) and am finding that I’m a bit tired… whaddya know, it’s 2 am.
