A good time is being had by all.<br \/>\nSo why the questionable post title?  I&#8217;m continuing to work on my presentation for tomorrow and discovering, in a unique blend of horror and excitement, that I actually have <i>tons<\/i> to say about the way that transmedia theory (can I call it that?) and negative capability play into the way that interactive narrative is currently developing <i>and<\/i> informing narrative structures in other environments, such as television.  Were I to publish my thesis as a first book (<i>Transmedia Storytelling<\/i> by Geoffrey Long) then what I&#8217;m scribbling away on now could easily be the follow-up (<i>Every Screen a Bonfire: Transmedia Theory and Interactive Narrative<\/i> by Geoffrey Long).  This is both very good and very bad &#150; good because I&#8217;m excited I have something to say, and bad because <i>oh crap, how am I going to sum this up in a 15-minute presentation?<\/i><br \/>\nStill, life is good.  Time to head back downstairs for John Lester&#8217;s keynote on Second Life.
