Six months in cyberspace:

Journal of Bernard Cohen's writer-in-residency at trAce Online Writing Community, from June to December 1999

back to front

 

Journal index

Four weeks and gone
The end of the line is visible (or is it a loop?)

Laptop, Data Projector, Road
Am I myself, or am I part-automobile?

Absence, written, moving
Two weeks holiday, and I'm all over the place.

Making writers redundant
Mark V Chaney and Bernard Cohen work together to rewrite a journal... with unusual results.

Strange characters
A Mediaeval re-enactment day seems somehow less strange since moving online.


Luddism is not technophobia
real life machinery falls apart

Farewell, Christy
baking a virtual cake

Problems with owls
the robot who wouldn't swear

Deep end
learning Dreamweaver, entering the MOO

Arrival
flight over the Millennium Dome


Every writer in residence or attachment to trAce online writing community is forced to keep a record of disaster and triumph. This is my story.
