Fiction Post 2/22/09
This one actually came out pretty well, and it allows me to mentally tie up a character that I've been using for far too long. It's hardly an exhaustive list, but it's enough for him, and so I feel that this small representative sample gives you a picture of what Sadrach eventually grew into over the course of over a million words of story. (No, ( Read more... ) -
Fiction Post 2/21/09
Post is late due to internet trouble in Fennel, not because of me not writing - for the record. That being said, I'm not very happy with this work. In fact, I think it just plain sucks. Feel free to comment as you will.

Beginnings
So, it appears that I'm starting up my daily fiction posts again. Please yell at me if it's been more than 24 hours since my last, because I really want to keep this up. That being said, here's number one.

What I felt like after a good conversation tonight:
Like wildfire, her words spread through his mind and down to his muscles, lighting every single nerve long the way with blistering, uncontrollable power. His breath quickened, but not as fast as his pulse, throbbing like the drumbeat from some ancient ritual.

Cheery Happy Funtime Messa- Not really.
For once, my body hurts more than my heart. And my heart is beating faster than my mind. The pain in my foot is excruciating. I must've compacted it or something. The heel, specifically. It hurts when I put pressure on it, and it throbs otherwise. Same with the ball of my foot. Both on the right leg. Same place I have a rugburn, and the rest of my ( Read more... )
