In an effort to try to make this blog more predictable, and to get me to write more (I have a project I’m working on that I need to get back into, but I need to exercise my writing muscle first), I’m going to start serializing a story as I write it.
The story is called The Gingham Sword. If the title does not completely explain what the story’s about, allow me to explain.
If you’re not already aware, I am a huge fan of L. Frank Baum’s Oz books. Every time I find a new book, movie, comic, etc. about Oz, I am compelled to check it out. I’m also like this with pumpkin-flavored things.
So, I was reading something recently, I can’t quite remember what, but it dealt with adaptations of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. I did not find anything in this article regarding an adaptation of a more fantasy setting (yes, I know, Oz is already Fantasy). Therefore, I put two and two together, and decided that I WOULD WRITE AN OZ FANTASY.
Since I find most Epic Fantasy uninteresting, I decided to make it a Sword and Sorcery tale.
The story is meant to be a reimagining of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz as a fantasy story. I will tag them all with "the gingham sword", and will try to add new “episodes” every Tuesday. Tuesday is my “writing” day, so if I feel compelled to write a post on writing, you may get one of those from time to time. But the rest of my Tuesday posts should be (drumroll please)
