Hey guys! I thought that as a first posting, I might want to explain why it is I created this blog and what I plan to use it for. I have been writing off and on since high school, but as life has pulled much of my attention away from my writing recently, I wanted to set up something that would require me to stay committed to my stories so that I didn't spend years away from them and never finish any of my ideas. I figured that a blog would keep me committed to writing at least once a week, even if it was something small.
Because this is a blog, writing longer stories would not really be a good idea unless I broke them up into pieces to keep the posts smaller and easier to commit to writing. So I decided that I would start writing serial stories and post them chapter by chapter on this blog. I figured that wouldn't be a terrible idea; I once heard that that's how Mark Twain got his start in writting. If it worked for him, why not for me?
And because I wanted a silly play-on-words type of title, I figured I'd go with my idea to write my stories in serial format and put up a picture of a bowl of cereal (haha, serial, cereal, get it? Don't care? Oh well, I thought it was cute). So that's why this blog is called Sugary Serial. In case you were wondering. (Still don't care? Then why are you still reading this?)
I plan to start with a story many of my friends have already read, one that I've been working on for at least six years and still needs some work. As I edit it chapter by chapter, I'll post the new and updated version of it up here on the blog. I've already had it copyrighted by law, so publishing it someday could be a struggle anyway; it seemed like the perfect story to start publicly writing with, since it is so close to my heart.
Hopefully I'll be able to post something every week. I welcome comments, but please make them kind and constructive criticisms.
Enjoy!!
