I am considering the status of my writing & where I
want to go with it. I have a lot of work to do on Token, with the goal of
workshoppng & then seeking traditional publication. For a lot of existing
writing I'm considering self publishing in kindle format (yes, there is such a
thing.)
This was the original concept for FRIGHTFUL NECESSITY:
series
of stories that have as a theme the horrors of housework. The feelings of
gross-out. Dust, mold, decay. I want to try to work on 1 a week, submit them to
places like NOCTURNAL OOZE, ALIENSKIN, DESCENDING DARKNESS. And APEX
So, what have I got so far?

Title
|
subject
|
|
"The
Enemy"
|
mold
|
|
"A
Night Out"
|
dust
|
|
"Frightful
Necessity"
|
I
think this became the daily grind. Is it about jobs or cooking? I don't think
it really works as such.
|
Actually, I don't think the entire concept works. It was
based on feelings about housework & being a woman that I don't have
anymore.
I know want
to work on a collection of short fiction to be published in kindle format, and
offered for free, if you can do that. if there's a cost, then charge to cover
it.

This
is an outline for a romance novel. Actually it’s a sexual fantasy, but there
does seem to be a market for that sort of thing. A lot of work to actually
write the book I have so carefully outlined.
On the
other hand is there a way to sell the outline?
