Hi All. I haven't written a short story in a while. I've been mostly on a poetry kick. This one is based loosley on an actual event. The ending is crap, so any and all feedback would be VERY welcome!
Title: Chomp and Stomp
Genre:Postmodernist Fiction/Short Story
General Idea:What happens the world is too small of a place
It's behind the cut to save your f-lists! :)
( Chomp And Stomp )

I'm not really experienced in shorter stories(and by short, I mean under 75k) but this one kind of sprang into existence on its own due to some "what-ifs" I had about my base universe. So. Same universe, different section. Lions and tigers and spin-offs, oh my!

I don't think it's finalized, but I'd really like comments on the plot so far. Tell me your first impression(s) and tell me if you'd want more after this?

Working Title: Ghost vs. Court
Genre: Fantasy
Warnings: If you don't like suspension of disbelief or odd-for-the-sake-of-it, this probably isn't for you.
General Idea: The Tempus Curia has opened the case of a female ghost on the charges of mutiny from her cosmic cruiser, murder of the captain, and willfully corrupting the timeline, fleeing the scene of the crime by way of outlawed, dimensional hole-punching technology.

VAMPIRE APOCALYPSE will be a 140-page full-color graphic novel based on the critically acclaimed Vampire Apocalypse book series written by Derek Gunn. New Baby Productions licensed the graphic novel rights to the novels.

VAMPIRE APOCALYPSE is a profound re-imagining of the vampire genre that adds a touch of science fiction to the formula. In a dystopian near-future world, war has left the earth depleted of resources. Fuel is rationed, states close their borders, towns die, and technology stagnates. As Americans struggle to cope with these problems, a sinister clan of vampires emerges from the shadows and begins to take over community-after-community. They offer power to those who will join them, and death to those who don’t. The vampires use a serum and subservient Thralls to control the population, wall the cities off, and breed humans as stock. Thralls are humans who have been bitten but have not fully become vampires. They have enhanced speed and strength and are used to guard the vampires during the day when they could be vulnerable to attack.

Check out the Vampire Apocalypse Kickstarter Project for more information.

Title: The Almighty
Summary: So you accidentally pick up a god in a bar and as it turns out he's been sent to collect your soul - where can you go from this?

I haven't really written anything in ages, especially poetry (I really struggle with this area of writing) so I'd ADORE some honest feedback on this short poem, please! If it needs to go behind a cut, tell me and I shall rectify this outrage.

Hair Dye

Today
I decided
That I had had enough
Dyed my brown hair red
Packed my bags
Left them in the doorway
And walked
To the bus stop.
I waited
And waited.
It began to rain.
Red dye pooled at my feet.
Finally, the bus appeared.
I turned around
And went home.
 

I write occasionally but I always have a hard time 'sustaining' it because I always get caught up on one detail or something and never move forward. And then I thought that maybe it might work better if I had someone to actually write and work with! Try and get some fresh water in the creative pool.

I am interested in fantasy novels. I am not interested in romantic plotline novels, having a few pairings in the story is okay, but no, you know. Highschool How These Two Kids Got Together, Broke Up, Then Got Together Again stories. I'm good with male / female / young / old / human / nonhuman characters. I am intensely interested in mythological creatures, including things like vampires and shapeshifters. But I base a lot of my thoughts on things like vampires from the original Slavic mythology, which is pretty gross and gory.

I like dark stuff. Not woo woo Goth, I cut my wrists for fun, dark. But interestingly morbid / intense storylines and characters. I'm okay with a lot of graphic situations, I just don't really like smooshy romance.

I'm okay with first and third person perspective, but I'm really picky about first person.

... I think that covers everything! For samples of my writing, I did NaNoWriMo several years ago and I did a series of short stories. http://thirtywords.insanejournal.com/ There they all are. Warning, they're not all edited so it's pretty raw stuff in there. But here's one of my favorites incase you don't want to follow links.

Like the great Doctor Who before me, I decided to do a Nadya's Nights holiday special. Originally, I intended for it to go from December 26th to December 31st with a chapter posted each day and climaxing on New Year's Eve cuz, hey... that'd be pretty rad. Instead, I'm just finishing it tonight. It's gotta few more parts to it than I intended, but that's not a bad thing cuz I think, in the grand scheme of things, it came out pretty awesome.

Anyway, check it out and lemme know what you think.

Hi all!  I'm a new user to livejournal, and basically I got this so I could share some of my writing out there and hopefully get some suggestions/criticisms/comments back :)  I'm open to anything you have to say.  So, here's the prologue for the young adult novel I've been working on that I"m trying to get published...let me know what you think!

Title: Innocence (Prologue)

Rating: PG-12/R (cussing is pretty much the only thing bad in here, some violence, but not really)

Plot Key Points: Basic spy novel with a twist--main characters are Alex Weston and Brian Walker, as well as Chandler Poole and Brandon Nabors

Enjoy! :)

Prologue

            Brian Walker crouched on the rooftop of one of the tallest skyscrapers in all of Japan, directly across from the Japanese Embassy. He took off the standard black backpack all CIA operatives carried and took out the three pieces that would assemble his AK-47.

            Brian Walker wasn’t a normal seventeen year old.

            With swift and experienced fingers, Brian locked the three sections into place, reaching into his backpack for his ammunition; finally, he locked his round into the gun and toggled the safety switch off. Brian rolled his shoulders and sighed before reaching into the bag one last time to remove a small earpiece and a large wrapped bundle of cloth.

            Brian put on the small earpiece and immediately his ear was filled with the sounds of his co-operative on the mission, and best friend, Chandler Poole.

            “God this is so boring…why is it that we always get stuck with the boring missions?”
