I had to pull On The Precipice today. This thing is just becoming a monster. What was supposed to be a simple, streamlined short story is begging me to make it meatier and fuller. What does this mean.? Well, a few things. 1. Bernard is getting an accent. He is going to become an actual French person. It's a small thing, but I feel like it will be a fun addition. 2. The story is getting darker, way darker. Just when you though masturbating with blood wasn't metal enough I'm upping the shock factor. Tristan's backstory is going to be epic. 3. I can now play with more taboo subject matter. This is going to be important to the story, not just for kicks. 4. I am getting more into Tristan's headspace. By immersing myself in the thoughts of such a fucked up man, By doing so my goal is to make him more sympathetic in the end.
So there it is, folks. Oh! That and I'm ditching the title for something a little more gothic. This story is beginning to feel like I'm just a handful of demons away from a Cradle of Filth video (Dani, call me!)
In other news, the first Doctor Who recap will be up by tomorrow night! Come join me as I pick apart "Rose".
I'm currently deciding on what the next fairy tale will be to get a depraved makeover. Your childhoods have been warned!
The next project after Tristan's story will be something that is set in the 21st Century. This will be great for me because, I shouldn't have to bust out a translation dictionary! Hooray for ease! This will be great for you, dear reader, because you won't have to read my barely conversational 6th grade French! We all win! I have been kicking the idea around for a couple of months now and it's almost time to make it real.
Finally, thank you to those that are reading. This blog is still new and trying to find its legs. I hope you are finding as much enjoyment in my ramblings as I have had publishing them here.
Stayed tune in kids. I'll be here nearly everyday; same bat time, same bat channel.
