Rebecca Wigmore (x 3): Mother, spawn object. Sadly Missed, Seldom Googled (1983 - 2011).

Hi T, B-T Readership,

The world nauseates me right now. This is not a emo-ish cry for help or a backslide into adolescent angst but a bald statement of biological fact. My awakened hormones now dictate that colours, movement, and, most horrifying of all, smells are plaguing my every waking thought and tying my esophagus into the prettiest bow. Thank god that we're careening into the Christmas week so ginger-based foodstuffs abound. However, the sub-zero conditions and my beleaguered state mean that it is unlikely I'll get to see my family down in Ashford, the city of progress, home of the tank, 'a beautiful place to die.' (© Simone Weil). It is deeply upsetting though none of them are yet cognisant of Wigmore_B or the Wigmore Undecided residing in my belly. Not that this would be a problem if they bothered to read the blog, but of course they're all too busy tilling the fields and scouring the Matalan.

I'm not going to lie. I'm an Ashford girl. I yearn for its particular quality of light, its bold halogenic warmth.

What hope is there if your own family refuses to read your work? Transmedia storytelling kinda lives or dies on the audience's faith that they can see their mark on the work. If the narrative system is closed and there's no locus point for interaction you may as well hang up your New Media hat. Jolson Sings! Garbo Laughs! Facebook Likes! Mimes corrupt! Influence, or at least the illusion of influence is what elevates Transmedia above mere pissing in the wind. It's what keeps society greased and the kiddies fed.  

So as I lie here, a faint crust of partially masticated ginger biscuit about my lips and neck, I wonder if you could assuage my loneliness, tiny readership. 

Please leave a comment and/or take part in my poll. I feel so 2002 and pathetic. I feel so very very nauseous. Only my fevered Transmedia networking on Twitter gives the winter nights any shape. Tell me all the things, readership.: what'syername and wheredyacome from?
