No, Sotto Voce is not dead. I’ve been busy writing elsewhere — on Channel 37 of course, along with the usual magazine articles, a local paper, client newsletters, the MWA newsletter, etc. etc. But I feel the urge to check in here too.

I feel a change coming on for SV as my writing life continues to move in interesting new directions. It was a neat experiment to use SV as the incubator for the story that sparked the whole Channel 37 adventure. I’ve been doing a lot of storyboarding and development offline, but it hasn’t felt like the kind of stuff that’s best worked out in an online space the way The Terror from the Other Dimension did. So I’m starting to think about other kinds of “born digital” expression that I can play with here in my little incubator. Kind of like typecasting used to be, I’m looking for something that lets me play with the form as well as the expression of words. I have some ideas circling around in my head, fun nonlinear things that would be more like free-association warmup exercises that would help loosen me up for writing.

I write every morning, but that’s gotten to be such a habit that I need to add something new to the mix to liven things up. Something visual? Ah, I think I have the beginnings of a glimmer of an idea . . .
