Storymatic
March 04th, 2018
----------------------------------------
I picked up The Storymatic [0] at a toy store in Princeton today.
It's a box of cards that are used as writing prompts. The
instructions say to draw two of the gold character cards and one
of the bronze lead-in cards. The two character cards together form
a main character and the lead-in gets the story moving. Beyond
that there are only two rules:
1. The character must change in some way during the story.
2. You cannot kill the main character
It's a very simple system. I'm tempted to do a little data-entry
and digitize the whole thing into a shell script. I just may do
that one night, but I'll fight the urge tonight. Instead tonight
will be spent actually using The Storymatic for its intended
purpose. I'll be creating a new section for writing exercsises [1]
over in the Writing [2] section. If you're a fast gopher reader
that content might not be live yet, so come back in an hour or two
and try again.
I have a passion for writing but I don't spend the time to develop
my craft. There's no excuse for it. It's the only way to get
better. If I ever have any hope of writing a book then I need to
be able to put in the time. Here's a start.
