What have you left behind on the Internet? As writers tumble through the world wide webs, we leave behind thousands of old links and long lost stories.
Novelist Ed Park--meet him at The Publishing Spot Library--is exploring one-post blogs. It's haunting to check out these lost sites that began and ended on the same day. Check it out:
"Blogs that only lasted for one post, #1: Time for a Midwestern Culture Shock."
On the other side of the coin, novelist John Scalzi is revisiting ten years of amazing content on his blog. This essay comes from very early in his writing career, a reminder to all fledgling writers about what it takes to succeed. Check it out:
"I try to be honest with myself regarding “working on the novel.” If I’m actually writing, then I’m working on the novel; if I’m not writing, then I’m not working on the novel ... If you want to write a novel, don’t “work” on it — write the thing."
