    117th and Oak - Chapter 1
    Title: 117th and Oak
    Characters: Ross Morgan and Alec Dillinger
    Chapter: 1/?
    Point of View: First Person - Ross
    Rating: M
    Warnings: Contains swearing, violence, sex, hustling/prostitution, drugs, alcohol, abuse, potential nonconsenual sex.
    Summary: Ross is a 19 year old hustler wise in the ways of the street, but not the heart. Alec is a 15 year old boy who's been kicked out of his house for coming out. When Alec shows up on Ross' street corner confused, alone and scared, Ross sees promise in the pretty, young boy and offers to help him find work...for a price. However, what starts out as an arrangement slowly turns from business to friendship, from friendship to something neither can explain, but while Ross' hardened up bringing prepared him for the harsh realities of the real world, it never prepared him for love - an emotion to which he is determined not to fall victim.
    Author's Note: I just started this, I'm hoping that it's good enough to continue, I know that the whole thing's a little cliche, contrived, and average, but I'm going to try (emphasis on TRY) to make it unique.

    Chapter One.

    FOR LOVERS OF THE SUPERNATURAL!

    Hello, there!

    I'm a major fan of supernatural creatures/ fantasy/ mythology, so based on those motifs I will be writing much about them!

    I usually like to write about 19th century England or Russia with an accentuation on dystopian attitudes.

    I'm also, dare I say, a hopeless romantic. Romance does come into play in most of my stories.

    I'm starting out with the first chapter of a new story I came up with.  It's called "To Death", so please check it out!

    I will be sure to have more stories soon!!

    A little synopsis of my story: It is about a young girl who moves to California and the exciting and portentous adventures she faces when she is kidnapped by five attractive, yet murderous men who harbor mysterious powers and abilities.

    Please read and tell me what you think!!

    Love you all!

    Title: i haven't thought of one yet
    Author: me!
    Genre: not entirely sure yet
    Rating: PG?

    here's the prologue and part of chapter one, read and critique and i would be grateful!!

    Prologue:

    The night sky was pitch black, the only light coming from the village lanterns and the tiny pinpricks of light hanging in the sky. Suddenly, the silence of the night was broken by the pounding of footsteps, the sound of a man running for his life.

    Come on Karl, he urged himself, keep going! Run faster! Run, run, RUN! The lanterns over the gates appeared in the distance, and he almost cried with relief. He was going to make it, he was going to live. He pushed himself even faster, faster than he ever thought possible.

    Suddenly, one shadow stopped being a shadow.

    It Starts With a Phone Call
    Title: It Starts With a Phone Call
    Characters: Kai and Jesse
    Chapter: 1/1
    Rating: T
    Warnings: Contains swearing, mild violence
    Summary: It starts with a phone call. Kai’s cell rings and he can’t hear the tone, but he feels it vibrate against his hip. He sets his food down and goes towards the house, leaving the back patio so that he can better hear the caller. “Kai here,” he says, shutting the door to the empty house. “What?” his heart drops and his face falls. “No, that’s not possible, it’s just…but yesterday!” Kai can’t even finish his sentence as his resolve crumbles along with his body, missing the couch by only a few inches as he collapses to the floor.
     Author's Note: I hope you guys like this! It's interesting...I wrote this about a year ago and changed the names, posted it as fanfiction because I was afraid to post anything original, but this is how it was originally written!

    Title: Hollywood Whore (Inspired by Papa Roach's song of the same name - the full 'Metamorphosis album is amazing. Go Listen :] )
    Rating: PG.13 for now I'd think? It's not finished - only like half way done
    Authour: Me :)
    pairing: N/A
    Genre: hrmm... not sure. You be the judge.
    Summary: She's everything the scene demands of her - the 'it' girl. The one everyone loves and everyone hates. And now she's crashing and burning.

    second try
    please tell me what you think!!!

    Prologue

     

    It was a fall night and the trees were losing their leaves making them look dead. The moon was full high in the sky and the wolf howled at it. The grass was already turning brown and every time you stepped on it, it made a crunch. It was late November in the country of Estro. This country was in a time of unrest, anything could happen and no one would know. A woman named Astra was running through the woods with a baby in her arms.  He was the son of the King’s brother. His name was Akon. He was only one week old. The king was a bastard; he was cruel to his own family and worse to his kingdom.  His name was King Sinstrol.

                    The king had no heir and he was not able to have a son. Akron was the next in line for the thrown and if he was found he would be killed. Astra ran for dear life knowing that the soldiers were right behind her. She ran through the woods and she could feel the moon on her face and the little heart of Akon beating against her chest. Her back was throbbing because when she left the castle they spotted her leaving and shot at her and one pierced her in the back. She began to feel that she would not be able to make it and that the soldiers would be able to catch them.  

                    Astra was the king’s sister in law. Her husband has already been killed for sneaking them out of the castle. Now it was up to her to get her son somewhere safe. She was headed for a little village that she had watched from the castle there were only two houses that she could see over the trees. One was the bakers and the other the blacksmith. She could see the village up ahead with the smoke coming up from the chimneys. She ran to the house of the blacksmith and knocked. A little boy answered it.

                    “May I speak to your parents please?”  The little boy nodded and went back into the house. A few seconds later a man came to the door.  The man was in his mid forties with black hair and he started to have gray hairs come in. He was tall but had a little weight on him. He was wearing pants and a baggie shirt that was stained with ash. “May I help you?” he said. “Yes I am in a hurry and I ask that you please take care of my son. I have been watching your home from the castle because I was afraid that if it would come to the king killing my son and I had to leave him I wanted a nice loving family. His name is Akon and he was born only a week ago. Please, can you take him in and raise him as your own? His father has been killed and now they are after me. We have done nothing wrong but had a child. Please, my name is Astra the king’s daughter-in-law. This boy is the next heir to the thrown and he is going to be hunted for the rest of his life but please raise him and keep this night a secret to him.”

    The man looked at her and then the child for a few minutes. “If what you say is true then I will be happy to raise the future king. I will raise him as my own and he will grow up like any other boy, away from the pressures of the life he may one day live.”

    “Thank you sir, but I am afraid that raising this boy will one day bring you pain. I am also asking that if anyone comes looking for him that you send him away from all of this. I don’t want him to grow up knowing about his uncle and who his family is. I ask that you not tell him anything because one day he will find out on his own about the past. If you have to tell him anything tell him his parents loved him so much and that we hope he will make us proud.”

    “I will miss you my son, take care of yourself.”  She whispered and handed Akon to the man and kissed the man and her son. She looked at the man and then her son smiled and turned around and ran.

    When she ran the man looked at the woman running into the woods and noticed that she was hurt. He called out to her but she had already vanished into the night. He looked at the boy and said in a loving father voice, “Come and meet your family little one,” and he walked inside the house.

    Lynch stuff elsewhere on LJ
    Couple things I saw recently people might like.

    My amazing Friend [info]mandy_moon & her husband did totally rad Eraserhead costumes. Check her photos out, I'm serious. Even if you've never seen the movie the Lynchianism is amazing.

    [info]shoopdancer, a vidder (who edits existing footage with pop songs to make fan music videos), did three on Twin Peaks, that you can either watch on YouTube or download:

    Running Up That Hill, very stylishly presenting the Laura murder mystery. And after all, if *SPOILER* only could, he'd make a deal with Bob, and get him to swap their places.

    Chemisty Of A Car Crash is a cool and fairly steamy collection of Shelly & Bobby scenes.

    Out Of Control very cleverly juxtaposes existing footage to create an Audrey & Bobby love (or at least lust) story.

    Hope you enjoy!

    Epiphany, Morality, and Movethedistance
    I've been really inspired lately to write. I'm pretty incapable of writing anything longer than 1500 words so all my stuff is fairly short. I decided to post what I have so I can get some feedback and constructive criticism.

    The first peice is a poem called Epiphany (it wasn't banned, so I'm hoping it ok to post a poem). It's based of a major discovery of mine, but can be interpreted other ways as well.


    Next is a story I wrote for my school's writing contest. I love it. It's not excactly fanfiction, but it's based off a character that already exists. Please don't hate me. The story is called Morality.
     


    The last piece I want to post is a little blurb I wrote randomly during english class one day. I'm not exactly sure what it's about and I don't know where I'm going with it, but I really like it. Maybe you can give me some ideas.

     

     
    Thanks much!

    TOUCHED-12Down the Rabbit Hole

    Current writing theme: Demon Hunter-The Tide Began to Rise


    Warning: This chapter has not seen a beta read yet

    Title: TOUCHED

    Summary: Leah has always known she was different, it was hard not too when you see things that people normally don't. Not to mention, her family has a knack for disappearing...and ending up in the crazy house. When her mother disappeared from her locked bedroom on her ninth birthday, Leah knew whoever was after them meant business. After almost nine years of keeping her head down, one new student threatens her silence.

    TOUCHED-12Down the Rabbit Hole

    This was it.

    This was the moment I’ve been waiting for since I was nine years old. A chance to get the answers to the questions that had haunted me night and day for more than half my life.

    The moment that I had prepared for, had agonized over and had nightmares of.

    Finally, almost to the day, I came face to face with someone that could answer all of my questions. And then some.

    So I planted my feet, looked him in the eye…

    …and hit him square in the face with everything I’ve got. And everything I've got was considerable.
