And I sort of like the blog medium as a means of taking public baby steps before entering the literary race: their is something about gradually failing in lesser increments before an audience that I find satisfying.

This is literature: why are you giving it away on such a base medium instead of publishing it? What a lovely restrained character study.

Valliant Wed, 10 Jun 2009 16:17:55 +0000 http://beatsentropy.com/?p=1282#comment-19003 I've decided to include whole versions of some of the stories I serialized over multiple parts. It makes it more convenient to read, and lets me give a second pass at fixing some of the tonal inconsistencies that take place when so much time passes between writing the first and last part. This particular one only had a couple of small changes (both suggested by Sulya) but a few of my older pieces will be massively rewritten so they flow better. And to hide of the fact I used to be a much poorer writer. In the next couple weeks look for the complete, and definitive, versions of "The Streets of Old Laredo" "The most dangerous man in the world" and "A Curious Omission". If you're late to the party and miss the initial posting, the full version will appear under the Featured short story bar. Though if that's the case me writing a off hand note in the comments sections likely isn't the best way to inform you...ah Well.
