Inara: So. Would you like to lecture me on the wickedness of my ways? Book: I brought you some supper, but if you'd prefer a lecture, I've a few very catchy ones prepped. Sin and hellfire... one has lepers.

The Great Write Way  

A place for Buffistas to discuss, beta and otherwise deal and dish on their non-fan fiction projects.

I would intend to pitch it, but leather has quite a hold on me.

Because books.

For Challenge 14. I think I used six of the words. This was so much fun.

There was no time for procrastination. She would teach them to slight her, and she would use the child, round perfect pink infant, the embodiment of their dreams.

Everything black and ugly within her, everything borne of chaos and waste, as withered and dead as this place was now alive, ripe and light and full, she poured into the spell. An ocean of hate, and all the girl would need do was spin. Drawn to the strange thing in the gloaming, its wheel and its deadly, gleaming needle…one touch and the kingdom would sleep. Forever, she hoped.

And she smiled.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

Amy, wheee! Fantasy doesn't do anything for me, but I love fairy tales with a burning hot love. That one rocks.

Thank you, ma'am! I don't read fantasy either, but I do love me some fairy tales. And revenge is such a common thread in them.

t makes note to self to never ever share work in progress

I, uh...finished another chapter and was feeling kinda proud. Gah. One of the great obstacles with writing genre fiction.

Kristin, nononono, you ought to be proud, damnit. Especially since I'm the only human being of my own acquaintance who doesn't get fantasy (edit: and Amy, so, well, two of us out of six billion).

And even with that, I'm a magic realism lover, so, there you go.

Share!
