Perhaps a Change?

The current posting schedule is, at heart, a list of genres.
  • The Apocalypse is an ongoing story, set in a familiar world with unfamiliar settings. Basically a chapter-a-week novel.
  • The Laments and now the upcoming Sevenfold Sorrows are all prose-poems.
  • Tuesday Tales are abstract short stories, released in short passages.
  • JoCo Stories, the site's newest addition, are each a short story, appearing all at once, based upon Jonathan Coulton's songs.
  • Thursday Thoughts are each short, often horrible poems.
  • Elphaba's unnamed Friday post is now a short story a week, as I understand it.
  • God Dreamt is a story of seven parts.
Thus, we have:
  • Novel
  • Prose-Poem
  • Abstract Short Story
  • Short Story
  • Poem
  • Short Story
  • Short Story
You can see the problem. Three or four short stories depending on your point of view. Thus Wednesday is returning to Song of the Week, beginning next week. A review should add some variety.

I apologize for not being there, I hope my work nowadays will help me show you how sorry I am for not following through.

Meh. We all falter at times, and this? Not really faltering. The entire blog is an exercise of sorts. Exercising permits lapses.

Exorcising, though, does not.
