Echoes = Mathematics  ...  WHAT?

10/6/2013

Today's post is, in part, a followup to my previous post.  There, I mentioned  that I had allowed an idea to slip through my cognitive fingers by not noting it somewhere for later use ... and, sadly, that I could not bring it back to mind.

Before I had actually completed that post, and while I was in conversation with someone, the "lost" idea abruptly reappeared in my mind out of nowhere, and this time I made a note of it.  The issue was as follows:   

I had recently, discovered that Echoes, Neo-Victorian Poetry had been classified as MATHEMATICS in an online shop!  I have no idea how this could have happened, but I quickly amended the page to reflect its true genre. 


True, I was befuddled and annoyed at the time, this case of temporarily mistaken identity made me wonder whether there might be an element of truth attached to it.  I took a breath and began to ponder this.

Indeed, I do tend to write in measured tempos, and I aggressively monitor the form and number of each line and stanza.  In the final edit, I count my verses to make certain that they all match up smoothly.  I soon realized that the designation of MATHEMATICS had not been entirely inaccurate.

Owing to this intriguing mistake, I am now considering writing a poem on mathematics.  My apologies to those who were searching for Mathematics, but found Echoes, instead.  I hope that they were somewhat entertained ...

It was great meeting you at the Alternative Press Expo's Comic Creator Connection "speed dating" of writers and artists.

If you recall, while we were waiting in line, we shared a mutual interest in having a website that would continue the "matchmaking" of writers and artists online, on demand, any place, anywhere, with any device.

Well, I am pleased to say that as a gift to writers and artists of the media arts everywhere, my web developer friends and I, as a labor of love over the past 6 years have built the YouScreenWriter.com online collaborative transmedia storytelling toolkit and learning center.

The vision of YouScreenWriter, was so that storytellers and artists can use this platform to go step-by-step, and soup to nuts, from the breaking of the story through the completion of a comic, graphic novel, game or web video.

Some of the newer features have been driven by capturing the voice of the customer, from writers and artists from the screenwriting conference and alternative press expo (APE). Writers and artists alike are looking for an online speed dating service that matches writers with artists, animators and voice over actors. For those writers, screenwriters and artists who don’t feel they can complete an entire multi-media project by themselves, can turn to the crowd sourcing service, where you post your project, where writers and artists can audition online for the work.

Having a one-stop-shop with all of the tools, training and expert advice to write, direct, promote and publish quality content all online faster and cheaper to all publishing outlets, with only a browser, democratizes the process, by removing the barriers to access, where original creators own the means of production: “Where every hero can tell their story!”

If you would like to support our online community and future MeetUp "speed dating" events, to help the next generation of creators, please register now =>

Are there a couple of alternative time slots where we could meet in San Jose to discuss your movie idea?
