I've been trying to get back to writing fiction for a long, long time now. In fact, I've spent more time trying than I did actively writing fiction from 2000-2003. It's not that there's a dearth of ideas or that I have suddenly lost the ability to string two sentences together, quite the opposite. In the past six years there have been short stories that turned into long stories, long stories that didn't go anywhere; several aborted novels, even more never begun; scripts and outlines and treatments and everything in between, but not a thing among them has been finished.

Well, today that changed. If only in a small way.
