The Baltimore Chronicles: pt. 3: delving deeper into the narrative: finding the unexpected

http://vestiges.blogspot.com/2011/04/pt-3-delving-deeper-into-narrative_12.html

A novel in real time. Tuesday, April 12, 2011. Pt 3: delving deeper into the narrative: finding the unexpected. It can't be forced. most movements and phenomena are only labeled as such after the fact. usually, you don't know you're in the middle of a zeitgeist while it's coming into being. For months now, my intellect and my instinct have been sparring. I am not someone who does this. Of watching these scenes in real time, twenty to twenty-five years prior. To have the chance to go back and not just ree...

The Baltimore Chronicles: 03/01/2011 - 04/01/2011

http://vestiges.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html

A novel in real time. Thursday, March 31, 2011. Write or Die: Coffee at Night. Trying to remember or trying to forget? My lifecoach advised me against thinking through things too much with a specfiic outcome in mind. she said buck was buck and he was in my skin and my hair and my lungs and leftover like forensic evidence at a crime scene. he's just a goddamned fact of my life. take the good take the bad. whatever happened to that show? What was its narrative arc? How did it end? Tuesday, March 29, 2011.

The Baltimore Chronicles: 11/01/2009 - 12/01/2009

http://vestiges.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html

A novel in real time. Saturday, November 21, 2009. Where can i really start? A few days out from thanksgiving, with no preparations complete. but, i have a hair appointment today for the first time since my birthday. my self-esteeem will jump up ten points, which may in turn motivate me to do the things i need to do. I know i'll have to work full-time, be a full-time student, and teach (if i do this) twice a week, but isn't that the busy, meaningful life i want? Wednesday, November 04, 2009.

The Baltimore Chronicles: frisco & Felicia: an undying love affair

http://vestiges.blogspot.com/2011/06/frisco-felicia-undying-love-affair.html

A novel in real time. Monday, June 13, 2011. Frisco and Felicia: an undying love affair. I've written at length about my revisitation of this fictitious couple's narrative arc via YouTube. what's come of it in the last couple of months is this: a handful of new friends who are similarly preoccupied with them and their story, a delightful venture on facebook. If you remember 'frisco and felicia' and have somehow stumbled here, i extend a warm invitation to you to click on the embedded links and join us.

http://vestiges.blogspot.com/2011_08_01_archive.html

A novel in real time. Wednesday, August 24, 2011. 59 or 5.8 on the richter, depending. Rumours of a power couple divorce (i wasn't invested, either way), and then there's Irene. This morning—a dog hair in my coffee. Friday, August 05, 2011. Good" guys vs. "bad" guys. These distinctions are getting old, as is the often repeated refrain of the actor: "it's always more interesting to play 'bad' guys.". Perhaps you've heard of the fatal flaw. every good man has one. I'm taking the time to put this in writing...
