Discussion: What's Yer Opus?
What's everybody's big project right now? I've got 'Trex World,' of course, Chang has Secret Sun, Stanley has these "Tommy Anthology" stories going on. What's been the biggest hurdle in getting these works finished?

What is 'finished'?
My 'Hamlet' saga started over twenty years ago as a play commissioned and performed by a local secondary school. Since then I have been rewriting it, on and off, with lots of other projects intervening, into a novel. I first thought of conventional publishers, then of 'Lulu'. When by an accident of surfing I discovered 'Oort-Cloud' I knew that I had found my literary and spiritual home. As long as the site continues, so shall I. When I have posted into it my complete novel I hope I shall have other projects in mind. Long live 'Oort-Cloud' and its brilliant and wonderful progenitors. Write, share, read, respond in very deed! With grateful thanks to all you writers and sharers:
All best wishes,

I concur! Oort Cloud has
I concur! Oort Cloud has definitely provided a medium for spurring things on. I have only the smallest inkling of where TW is going, but there is something about the online format that is beneficial to getting the prose cranked out.
I'm still planning to put up
I'm still planning to put up more of 'Jumping Jack.' Just haven't had a chance to get the next parts ready to go, but I should have the next 2-3 done before much longer.
Excellent. For myself, I
Excellent. For myself, I find it's "making the time" that's the hardest part to get into the ol' discipline script. Does that sound familiar to anyone else? Any hints at overcoming this, or is it simply a matter of practice?
writer's block
Having finished "An Habitual Offender" I'm floundering around looking for the Next Big Idea. I don't seem to be in the headspace to return to my fantasy novel just now. Yes, I'll post some when my knee feels better and I can sit at the computer for longer periods.
Also, anybody heard more from the author of "Break To Bind" ?
Are we going to get to see
Are we going to get to see "Habitual Offender" in a full length format, like as a PDF or somesuch? Forgive my oversight if it's already all put together. I haven't seen hide nor hair of the "Break to Bind" author.
