a story a day

I've decided to create a new blog in which I will try to write a story a day. But since the blogger domains "astoryaday", "a-story-a-day" and even "storyaday" have been taken (by people who haven't written in a long, long time), I've decided to use this, an old blog I've never used. It'll have to do.

Realistically speaking, I probably won't be able to post a story a day, since it's not every day that I have internet connectivity. Also, there will be some days when I won't be around my laptop, or when I simply won't have the time to write (or when I just don't feel like it).

But this project is an attempt to tackle the many problems I have when writing - deadlines, writer's block, and sappy prose. I've been thinking for much too long and have been writing too many essays and blogs. I need to return to fiction.

Don't expect any bestsellers. I'll likely only be able to write flash fiction, fragmented and pointless, nothing more than studies or scenes of my stories. But I will try my best to have a plot and to write nicely. I fancy myself a writer after all.

Cheerio!
