Hey I haven't touched this in years. I do more game writing and narrative design than prose writing these days, so I'm deleting my accounts on all instances but one.

Head on over to @mcoorlim to follow me on the account I'll actually be using.

As big a planner as I am, it's hard for me to get into #writing short fiction because the pre-writign is almost as extensive as it is for my longer-form works.

I think I'm going to do more extemporaneous writing on a regular basis. Maybe on Twitch, maybe as a Patreon perk.

Maybe I'll attach some of my insights/thoughts/process to it as well, a sort of linear notes/commentary. If you care enough about my writing to support me on patreon, you care enough to hear me blather on about process.

Chapter 4 of my midwestern gothic #horror #serial, "Midwestern Requiem," in which the Murphysboro Ladies’ Book Club gets a little witchy. http://www.mcoorlim.com/midwestern-requiem-s1-penumbra-1-4/

Today was spent researching late 19th/early 20th century schoolgirl novels to get the tone and feel of the genre.
