Since I get a few questions every now and then as to my own projects and how they are faring, I figured I’d try something new, at least for me. You see, I’m a pretty private person, and I rarely want to talk about how I’m doing, especially when I’m doing good or great. Boasting is a bad thing where I come from, and sometimes this is holding me back. In short, I don’t like to pat myself on the back.
However, given the amount of e-mail I’m getting (not overwhelming, just enough for me to consider as a “problem”, for lack of better word), there is some interest as to what I’m up to, so I figured I’d try and do monthly status reports for a while, see how it fits. I might also work as a spur for me, something I’ve tried before with the OrnTales.com project, now a part of this very site.
So this is the first status report, tackling July 2008, even though there are a few days left. I doubt everything will change in that time, but if it does, I’ll let you know for sure. Read more →
I’ve improted everything from OrnTales.com to tdhedengren.com, and the domain will point to tdhedengren.com/category/fiction/ tdhedengren.com/read/fiction/ for now. Expect better presentation later on. One step closer, today will be all about this site for me.
I’ve reached a decision. I will consolidate my fiction writing under one banner, namely a subdomain under tdhedengren.com, the domain hosting the very blog you’re reading. It’ll be a separate entity, this fiction section of my site, since I don’t want to mix things up too much. Many thanks to those who weighed in on this matter in my previous blog post, and also to those who sent me e-mails of encouragements. It’s interesting to note that none was against this move, although some pointed out that the branding of the various worlds, whereas there are such, like Orn would be less persisting should I decide to consolidate the writing. That was also the original idea with OrnTales.com, enforcing the brand further beyond my writing by having it housed on a dedicated site.
No more, soon. I’ll announce my plans in the near future, and perhaps use the Easter holiday free time to setup a temporary site, and move the OrnTales.com content there. It would be nice to start The Green Knight story on its intended place.
Again, thank you for your input, dear readers. I appreciate it!
Having trouble sleeping is sometimes good for you. Last night it seriously got me thinking about my fiction strategy, as I’m getting ready to post the first part of the new short story on OrnTales.com. You see, while I do try to focus my fiction writing on the Orn project, I just can’t do just that, and I feel it is limiting me. Out of nowhere came two new ideas, and I found myself thinking about how to handle them, checking out domain names and such.
It didn’t take long to come to the conclusion that having several OrnTales.com-ish sites focusing on various projects is far from ideal, especially since some of my writing is more miscellaneous and not attached to a specific setting.
So I’m thinking maybe I should consolidate it all under one roof, a site dedicated to publishing my writing? What do you think?
Ladies and gentlemen, with this post I’m pleased to announce that I’m writing fiction again.
That is largely to the credit of none other than author Stephen King, I’m sure you’ve heard of him. I don’t know the man nor belong to his horror loving fanbase. In fact, from what I’ve read by him I prefer his short stories. That makes his importance in this matter pretty fascinating, if you ask me. Read more →
