If you want, sure.

Yeah, I'm really proud of that story... I think it's the best I thought of for that capstone. I had other good ideas too - a timid laundromat owner who loses the book that tells him his own future, and a young boy grappling with his father's insistence that he become a man, his aversion towards girls, and the pent-up desires he has that he fears to partake in or reveal to anyone. However, I felt that that story in particular came together better than the others, mainly because I was able to go nuts with symbolic imagery.

To each their own I guess. I'm just sure I'm not alone in subconsciously thinking of art as sacrosanct and found it an interesting point of philosophy to ponder.

It's a pretty strong cultural force in society at this point. For example, would you dare burn the Mona Lisa? I wanted to explore the driving force behind the preservation of art, and in doing so, I learned I have the same reflexive aversion to destroying art. I originally had a different ending planned before I realized why I was writing it that way.

Sounds like quite the interesting character. The Master was a character written for my capstone project in college, so of course I had to make him a deep and symbolic character. I wanted to play off of the reflexive, socially-created value of art and find a way to subvert our aversion towards destroying art.

Hmm... hrmm............ man, this one's hard. I suppose I'd have to go with a nameless nihilistic anti-technology artist known as The Master. He turns burning his artwork into an artform through colorful, flammable paints and multi-layered canvases. You?

I just happened to go on minutes after you posted... I am definitely not stalking you ;)

I can't draw worth crap, and I have a lot of respect for people who can. My approach is to give them some ideas and let them have creative license over how they want to present the details of the story. If they want specific detail, odds are I'll plop it in.

That's gratifying to hear. I'm hoping that Dusk Brawler turns out better now that I've thought more about how the conflict should proceed.

I'm also really looking forward to the Big Bang thing going into the next phase. It'll be fun working with an artist for a change.

Heh, good luck with that one. First one's terrible imo, the second and third are a bit more readable.

Hey, thanks for the feed back! Really helps! I need to find my other journal, but until then, tah!

Understandable. I'm only going through Dusk Brawler again because it's the sequel to the three I've written before, and I've given how I want to execute it more thought. So, onward and away I suppose.

Same here. Been working quite a bit, but I started the first few paragraphs of the Dusk Brawler reboot. I made plenty of narrative mistakes last time that I intend to fix.

Howdy Aisu! How've you been lately?
