Writing Genres I’m Toying With

Blogging. First on my list and for good reason: it’s what I do best. It’s a pretty free and open format, and allows for lightning-fast dissemination. People know me as a blogger.

Copywriting. It’s an impure but worthy challenge. By impure I mean the intent is convince people of something they might not naturally feel. Then again, that’s what makes it a worthy challenge.

Fiction / Screenwriting. Not. At least anytime soon. When I start writing I gravitate towards creating characters in a story, but taking them through a story is tougher than I cold ever imagine.

Word Barfing. I do this a lot and I find it’s a good way to get the glut of words out of your system — the ones that have been building up like plaque because you haven’t gone in and cleaned them out. Best done in rapid succession.

Poetry. Yeah, I wish.
