I'll be interested in hearing your thoughts.<br /><br />Incidentally, I used to write for fun all the time in grade and high school. I stopped until I was 25 or so and then started up again, writing, then reading about writing, then writing some more, then reading about writing some more, etc. etc. etc.<br /><br />If it's something you truly feel the urge to do, there are some awesome books on things like plot lines, character creations, etc. Some of them are even written by well known authors that you may have read (my favorite, on character creation, was done by Orsen Scott Card). I'd be happy to recommend them.<br /><br />Off hand, some of the areas I'd love for these short stories to explore are: the discovery of the first anomaly, apocalypse aftermath, Scythe's journey out of Chicago to Rownosci, other municipal areas throughout the world that are affected by the events in Midwasteland, the story of Saint's father. <br /><br />Having said that, those certainly aren't the only subject matter that could be fun. What I'd really like this thing to blow up into is an ongoing saga style of series, not unlike what's occuring in the Star Wars universe. Obviously those aspirations are lofty, but wouldn't it be fun....Tim Geignerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18220842119769777026noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3950897384773904883.post-12899057601555928182010-10-03T21:14:39.042-05:002010-10-03T21:14:39.042-05:00I'm somewhere in chapter 3, and I'm enjoyi...I'm somewhere in chapter 3, and I'm enjoying it. I haven't written any fiction since high school (5 years or so) but I really like post-apocalyptic settings and would probably enjoy an opportunity to add something to that world. We'll have to see when I finish the novel.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08812714124391529143noreply@blogger.com
