Story Update: A Cluttered Mind

I've made a change to my story blogs in that I'm turing A Cluttered Mind into a collection of short stories. I have a lot of ideas that suddenly fizzle out. I was thinking I should write these into short stories at the least. Even if I never go back to them, at least I was able to practice and get my ideas out. I'm also hoping it will be easier to update instead of trying to work on a larger project.

The first story is called Another Hot Day, and I was inspired to write it based on the current news that we can expect global warming to make noticable global changes in the year 2020 in tropical regions, and by 2045 in areas such as New York. I was thinking about how that is within my lifetime, how old I would be, and how grown my boys will be by then. I was thinking about what would happen to society, the changes that would be made, and how being dependant on government and economy would make it impossible for us to migrate the way our caveman ancestors would have done.

Exciting Angel in Black Update

Today we once again get to see some of the raw talent that Anlynn posesses in chapter 20. She's a lovely girl, really, but best to stay on her good side.

Also today we see for the first time why I put the "horror" tag on all the chapters. Up until this point it's been pretty traditional fantasy adventure. But now some of the other elements are coming into play.

Aftermath Update: Chapter Three

Okay so I've got chapter three up on Aftermath. It's a bit longer than normal. I had a lot to say.

Today we get to know more names of the people in the group. It's confusing so I'll list them here. In this group there are ten people. (Does that mean there are others? You will just have to wait to find out!) The story of each will unfold as time goes on:

Kevin
Jeff
Dave
Jack
Derek

Peggy
Alexis
Teresa
Jennifer
Sarah

Another Angel in Black Update: Chapter 19

Another day, another update! Hurray!

check it out here:
http://angelinblackstory.blogspot.com/

This one ends on a bit of a mystery. I'm going to try to work on chapter 20 tomorrow.

As for Aftermath, fear not, I'm currently working on Chapter Three. I'm also going to work on updating the whole of that page to be more fancy, as it's kind of dull right now.

Thanks for reading!

Angel in Black Update: Chapter 18

Wow! I updated Angel in Black. What a shock, huh?

You can find it here:

Anlynn is one of my favorite heroins. She's tough and smart, but also very human under her chill exterior. Givng people the chance to know her is something I really want to complete.

Elohke is also one of my favorite characters ever. He's a lot of fun to write.

Also, here's a tip on pronunciation in the world I've created. Elohke's name is derived from an ancient language of the people. It is pronouned "el- OH- kay" (with the o like in the word oh.) So, there you go. Hope that helps.

I know them both pretty well, inside and out. Both are full of surprises and together they make an interesting pair. I have part of chapter 19 done so stay tuned! I'll probably be updating again soon.

New Story Blog: Aftermath

I have started a new story blog. The title of this story is Aftermath. It takes place in a post-apocolyptic world 15 years after the cataclysmic event. The world is similar to Earth as opposed to a fictional world.

The main character is Kevin Hobbs, a young man who has lived the majority of his life as part of a nomadic group of survivors. As the world settles back into something livable, Kevin hopes to bring peace and stability to those he has come to regard as his family.
