Nathan Tyree: Pawns
I’ve been playing chess against a computer. It’s been a long time since I had gone up against a machine and I had forgotten that it is, normally, less challenging than playing against a human opponent. The computer tends to play a solid, straight forward game. It doesn’t improvise or experiment the way a human can. In a real game a player can throw in a randon move just as you’ve clocked their strategy and confuse you. A computer never does that.

Also, the machine never gets drunk as quickly as I do.

The new writing project is called (for the moment) So Much for the Afterglow, which is a title I ripped off from Everclear. I estimate the final length at 60,000 words. This one will take a while. It feels good to be back into a big project that I can obsess about for a time.
