FICTION FRIDAY: Prompt – Invasion

I love fiction prompts. I don't work with them nearly enough, but some of my favorite things have come out of prompts I had in workshops. And since I've been struggling to figure out what to share here on Fridays, I figured hey! I've got some books with prompts in them. Why not pick some … Continue reading FICTION FRIDAY: Prompt – Invasion

FICTION FRIDAY: Next Door Neighbor

So I'm still in flashback mode for now, but since it's Friday the 13th, I had to share this particular piece with you. I'm not one to write a lot of horror, though I'd love to try some day, and this is likely the closest I've gotten. But I still like this, and I wish … Continue reading FICTION FRIDAY: Next Door Neighbor

FICTION FRIDAY: Game Script-ish

So in order to get to know my characters a bit better for the "dating sim" game I'm working on writing, I've been taking scenes that could potentially happen much later in the game, and just writing them out full story style. A lot of these are pretty far into the romance line of the … Continue reading FICTION FRIDAY: Game Script-ish

Fiction Friday: Old Projects and New

So I never did end up sharing with all of you any/much of my NaNo project, but I can at least fill you in on what I did this November! I took on a bit of a challenge--I think I've mentioned this before--and wrote a project in which there were only two characters, and one … Continue reading Fiction Friday: Old Projects and New

NANO FICTION FRIDAY: Paint the Picture

So I've been working on a little bit of an idea for a new project--not my NaNo project, but a more long-term slow-build one--and I've been in need of a setting. Since we all know how well I do with planning, I'm going to see if I can take the few threads I've come up … Continue reading NANO FICTION FRIDAY: Paint the Picture

NANO FICTION FRIDAY: Dana Cantrell

So let's take the character from Monday's adventure, and start throwing him into some mess, shall we? You'll see as I start to write this how quickly the rest of the world begins to form around him, how setting and character and plot start to get all jumbled up together. I've tried to keep this … Continue reading NANO FICTION FRIDAY: Dana Cantrell

Fiction Friday: Away from Home Turf

I don't get a chance to write too much with the characters who aren't Alistair in REVOLUTION, so I figured this is an good a place as any to flesh out a few of the characters we don't see as much of. And since Esme is a character out of her element, as it were, … Continue reading Fiction Friday: Away from Home Turf

Fiction Friday: Quest to Karantiri

So at least for now, I'm thinking I'll use Fridays as a little buffer zone, filled with bits of writing in my various worlds. This gives everyone a chance to meet some of my characters and see some of the worlds, and gives me a chance to keep myself occupied and inspired. So! Since I've … Continue reading Fiction Friday: Quest to Karantiri

FICTION FRIDAY! Character Snippet

So hey! Since I'm spending a lot of time bouncing around this month, I figured rather than giving you all a prompt call, I'd just offer a few tiny bits of fiction so you can all meet my characters again. I did this once, long ago, and I can't remember if this exact piece was … Continue reading FICTION FRIDAY! Character Snippet
