Create lots of Unknown Mechanisms that do the brain thingies, then flesh them out later with actual science. Or don't. Either way, keep typing.Duffy Moonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10105074089216551597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36092055.post-5634101459884908402008-11-12T13:10:00.000-08:002008-11-12T13:10:00.000-08:00I think there is something in the Chris Baty book ...I think there is something in the Chris Baty book about writing about topics you haven't researched, in that, trust that if you have the interest in a rewrite, you can fill in the factual accuracies after you're done.Strikethruhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07797111328778577303noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36092055.post-7357449883047536462008-11-11T09:50:00.000-08:002008-11-11T09:50:00.000-08:00Yeah, week 2 is the Week of Ugh. You know it, you...Yeah, week 2 is the Week of Ugh. You know it, you know what waits beyond it. Just Keep Typing. We'll work on memory eradication so you don't have to remember the suffering that is this week.<BR/><BR/>Your story sounds interesting (yeah, I know, no pressure.) I'm wary of tipping my hand and talking to much about my ideas, because I don't want what little magic there is in them to evaporate before I get a chance to smack them onto paper where they will stay put.<BR/><BR/>I have to wonder what would happen if a memory-erasure process went wrong, or backwards (yeah, Eternal Sunshine again, I guess) -- someone being unable to remember certain things, or having blackouts, or whatever. Kind of like being suddenly colorblind, I guess.<BR/><BR/>Ignore me. For some reason, all my characters are having a rough go of it this year -- nightmares, being abandoned in the woods, and (soon) locked in a cave for decades with a giant magical typewriter and the unquiet spirits of the dead.<BR/><BR/>I'm a happy person, really!mpclemenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12807147515549175803noreply@blogger.com
