I’m just in the process of bringing some fiction writing to the site. It is partly started, I have a few episodes of a fictive theme on global warming and how to have a response by writing fiction about it and not going mad with fear or despair.
It developed a block, and I unblocked it last week, interestingly, about the time I committed to writing a poem or a post a day. Funny that! It will appear sometime soon as posts and I like the idea that it will be shared as posts and it will work in a post-factual way. We don’t have to get stuck in ‘facts’ but we may see what may follow after the fact, in fiction.
Anyway…
I found this below on Tumblr. It should link to the site.
No idea what ‘Periodic rent-lowering-gunshots:’ means. Maybe inform me.
But this just gets to what the power of fiction, especially fiction you write yourself FanFic, Pomes, stories, whatever.
This could be a bit like an arts/writing/reading manifesto.
I chose the picture ‘cos I like that you can close the book and the writing is still there, but in a closed book. I think that just as online life for many people took off, Harry Potter came out as a book. People found they could close the book, and the writing is still there, but in a closed book, but they cannot close off social media.
It controls sensory overload.
