The Only Life Worth Living
November 12, 2009 in Personal, dashPunk by Eric
The only live worth living is the one you are truly passionate about!
I hope by now you have discovered your passions and dreams, but I need to start practicing what I preach:
My Dream
I suppose the easiest way for me to explain my dream is to say that I want to be a cross between George Lucas, Stan Lee, and Gene Roddenberry. That entails:
- Books
- Comics
- Movies/Series
- Games
I have a lot of ideas, stories, and settings that I want to share with the world. I have already started with my books, but there is so much more I want to do.
So much of the community I love is maligned by the mainstream. I want to help people feel comfortable with who they are and what they do. To do that, I need to promote:
- Fandom
- Filk
- Fanfilm
- Fanfiction
- Remix Culture
I have some ideas about how to do this, and I have set some goals for myself.
For starters, I want to write at least 2,400 words a day. Eventually, I want to push that higher, but it is a good starting goal. I am going to divide my writing between dashPunk and my fiction. Hopefully, I will be able to become disciplined enough to write 2,400 words s day for dashPunk and 2,600 a day for my fiction. I have written 5,000 words a day before, but it is something to build up to.
I am reading feeds on the topics I want to talk about, and reaching out to others in those fields to hopefully get people to help out.
I am going to spend more time participating in Project: Shadow and Podcasting.
I am also building several table top role playing games just for fun.
What are your plans?
Hopefully, by now you have figured out some plans to achieve your dreams. What are they? Is there anything we can do to help?
