Editorial: Upcoming Posts, and A Quick Discussion on Bloggiing

First: an allusion to upcoming posts

Every single big move made in entertainment today seems to go in this abstract formulae that aggravates rather than innovates. For example, we know the biggest movie releases are going to suck so bad, that less than one percent of the U.S actually sees them. Yet movies that make so much money, never get the recognition they deserve. The joke is that most of these award ceremonies should be made for the entertainment that was the least entertaining.
  This is not always the case with video games: which normally receive accolades before they're even released to the general public.  Video games take years to make, and spend more time in post production (which can last forever, now that downloadable patches are inherently more accepted, than a scarce bandage for a rare bug or glitch) than any film, or television show. Video games have tons of awards, which act more as a rating system than some  glorified kiss-ass festival.          
   Games, no matter their genre, tend to be stocky, never really advertise far from what the market desires. When something noir, unique, or just plain wacky, it is now made into a new sub genre that creates a boatload of sequels.  I find that most games are far from actually being legitimate new. Not since the times of the fifth generation consoles, has there been a great deal of risk-taking games. I do believe that games are more innovative, in-terms of story, and the voice acting and sound effects are unparalleled to any major motion big budget film.
       I've mentioned this some time ago in a past blog post. I do enjoy reminiscing, I even have an upcoming blog post that I've spent a few hours on about two months back, solely based,on my love of one nostalgic game: Silent Hill 2. This game was the second one I bought for the Playstation 2, and I go into detail about the game.  For those who actually followed this blog for some time, they know that I write a ton of posts out, and put them up when applicable.  If I have the time, I'll occasionally write one out on a tablet (which I find irritably annoying) that usually gives me some time. I've written a great deal in the last five years, some of it I actually like, but I have very little to show for it, because I never take that next step.
      So I write this blog, and in the above paragraphs, I've started to discuss the change in the production of video games, which is quite obviously the most dynamic expenses of the medium. Production changes more often than the way it's coded and played. The biggest change for most video games in the last thirty years is that the remote had gone wireless and is nearly flawless. The remote hasn't changed in forever. I've written an article, entitled Peripheral Apocalypse, which I will also be putting up in the next couple of weeks. So I have a few posts that will come to fruition for the Malacast Editorial.  However, until those are applicable, here is my post for today:

      For bloggers, writing is essential, almost critical, when it can be done nearly every single day. I write nearly every single day, but I take a nice long hiatus when I'm nearing the end of a project. For example, I'm writing a novel right now, it's a futuristic Sci-Fi that I'm hoping to end at 180 pages. (Approx. 100,000 words plus) I'm at 100 pages currently, and I haven't touched it in a few weeks, probably about a month, month-and-a-half tops. I'll be finishing it up pretty soon, I just wanted to think of ways I could end the book that will both appeal to my readers, and satisfy my tastes. A lot harder than it sounds!
     Yet, most writers write what they want, which makes sense, but even I have to bite the metaphorical bullet at times, and actually write something I despise. This novel is more up my alley, and I think my readers who have read my fiction beforehand, will admire it greatly, because it goes well with my short stories, and a bit of my poetry.
  I take a long break in the middle or the end, because I'll jump right into the next novel the second I'm done with the current, literally just hours, or days after,,I take no time to rest.  This works for me, and seeing that this is the sixth manuscript I've written, I believe that it will be a standalone, I'm not too fond of serials, unless they're short, they literally follow one another, and they could be read individually, just in case someone picks them up in the wrong order. Sounds contradicting right? That's why it's tough, and I don't do it on average. I think when Stephen King opted to writ a sequel to The Shining ( the sequel is entitled Doctor Sleep) it was more an act to appease himself, and not necessarily the reader. Which is great! He has reached the pinnacle of his career that he could right the script to a porno, and it would be the most mainstream porno ever made. The man could write a book about two headed puppies from hell, and turn it into a number 1 best seller. I almost wish he trolls the market one day and writes a book about killer rhododendron. Or did he do that already?
  As writers, which we are, essentially, we blog either every day, or every week, depending on time management. So we kind of band together, like an online family of constructive critics, and most are,willing to help out their fellow blogger. Now because of independent publishing, we help each other, because of how marketing on each other's blogs help spread the word of our books, especially to potential audiences that might not have been reached before.
    My point is, we use this medium to discuss what we want about the subjects that get cloudy in other forums. However, blogging also allows us the opportunity to do some free marketing for our other ventures.  Anyway, before this post is completely wrecked, I'll end it here.
