The emotional states of creative mediums are varied. Music had typically been an expression of my anger while writing expressed my love.

2010-12-02

Writing will always be my first love, so my use of its ability to write about True Love was kindred. Music gave me the chance to lash out.

2010-12-03

was normally at peace when writing as compared to venting when making music, but this won't always hold up - as far as lyrics are concerned.

2010-12-04

My best work is done when I'm at peace, yet my best work is often dark. A calming process, writing bleeds my inner darkness onto the pages.

2010-12-05

For as involved and complex as writing is, I never go into it with a wrong mindset or put so much time into creating something in anger.

2010-12-06

An album only takes an hour and a half (in passing) out of a listener's time, but novels are longer, more emotional investments for readers.

2010-12-07

always tries to flip it on readers (of which he happens to be one) in order to create literary experiences that are worthy of their time.

2010-12-08

This novelette is but one of those many experiences - an unedited book which I wrote across 365 days as daily 140 character status updates.

2010-12-09

Everybody seems to have their autobiography out, so I wanted to do mine in a special way by using these stream of consciousness ramblings.

2010-12-10

The format added an awesome, challenging angle which made a lot of sense because status updates were meant to convey personal information.

2010-12-11

A year's worth of status updates forced me to get into the mindset of being able to describe my own work - modest to a fault or a downfall.

2010-12-12

It was quite therapeutic in that I wasn't just talking to the wall but talking things out with the universe, and everybody could chime in.

2010-12-13

Many did. All of the ensuing conversations which came from this project were greatly appreciated. The value of a lent ear is priceless.

2010-12-14

Its intrinsic value is often overlooked, but I never take it for granted - whenever I happen to have somebody's ear or somebody needs mine.

2010-12-15

Another part of this project was to outwardly communicate some of the creative tricks of my trade which I had picked up, made up, or honed.

2010-12-16

The bulk of this was done as a discussion about SpaceStation Colt. I knew my life's work the best, so it was perfect to dissect and study.

2010-12-17

hinted throughout that a significant amount of pain was associated with his creative journey, but he kept these status updates uplifting.

2010-12-18

might have been in the dumps - reliving the pain, but he didn't need to bring others down with him, and he didn't need to stay there either.

2010-12-19

A lot of good continues to come out of my creative journey despite the foolishness which tried to prevent it, so that's the real story here.

2010-12-20

If somebody could draw any bit of strength from my words to help with their own projects, this book did the trick which was allotted to it.

2010-12-21

A lite chuckle leaves my lips when I think of the status updates which didn't make it into this, but I'm glad that positivity ruled the day.

2010-12-22

is becoming more accustomed to the serialized story. With Criticality done monthly and Constructs done daily, they are anything but taxing.

2010-12-23

Serials give me a method of pacing myself. For as loose as the process appears, the thoughts are organized, and the flow is sustained.

2010-12-24

When I found my voice, it went unaffected by the parameters surrounding its use. If anything, spacing words out allowed me to use it more.

2010-12-25

It's a voice that I won't lose because of a cold, doesn't need to shout in order to be loud, and will only grow stronger with continued use.

2010-12-26

And that's my point: Find your voice in creativity or purpose and calling in general. From a creative standpoint, this is absolutely huge.

2010-12-27

So huge that I spent a year explaining the process which I went through to find mine - in hopes that another would not give up on theirs.

2010-12-28

My journey began with a yearning to create the works which I would like to read or listen to, but there's no telling where it will end up.

2010-12-29

If it will end at all - which I doubt it ever will. Creativity relates to Enlightenment, and that is said to be the cousin of ascension.

2010-12-30

Immortality can be found within the lines as I use my words to help in solving some of these equations of existence. To me, it's still fun.

2010-12-31

Because of my growth, I find that the events do not necessarily come full circle except to push out a new starting line: The Beginning
