Well, this is the first time that I've logged into old Livejournal in something like a year. The reason for this is that I'm working on something that I feel that some of the Dragon*Con community might have an interest in.
I'm working on a novel.
Yes, that makes me about as unique as saying, "I have a facebook page."
The point is that I'm writing a novel about Dragon*Con. I've attended D*C for 10 years now and I've always enjoyed telling stories about the things that my friends and I have experience during our years at the convention, so I decided to write about it. I'm also one of those people with lofty dreams of transforming from a "writer" into a "published writer." So I've decided that I'll share the novel as each chapter becomes something that I'm comfortable with sharing. It's in no way a set in stone manuscript but more of a near-final draft.
At the time of this posting only the first chapter, more of a brief intro the setting, is available but the second will follow shortly. I plan to update the blog with a chapter or two every week, usually on the weekends.
What I would like is feedback from people that I don't know who have experienced Dragon*Con. I want to know what you think about it. So please leave a comment either positive or negative. Let me know what you like and what you didn't and what you would like to see.
So drop by and take a peek, at
