Flash Fiction Blast from the Past

Posted in flash fiction, pbp | 2 Comments
A comment earlier this week (from my friend Bluenail, who used to run an awesome CyberPunk PbP back at my gaming site), had my wheels clicking a bit, since she specifically mentioned the character I used to play there. I honestly hadn’t given the game or the character much thought in a while (this was back in 2007!), but I looked up the original intro chunk I had written for her and you know what? It’s actually kind of good. Oddly enough, it’s in 1st person present. Again. WTF is up with me and flash in that sort of PoV? (And yes, I have comma issues – I’m very much aware of that. LOL) So here is Sakura Ookochi’s intro, in all it’s unedited glory (and one of the renders I’d done for her as well): OOO The waitress is being a total bitch, but I don’t let it bother… Read more

I decided to take my characters from the YA SteamPunk thing I’m playing around with and see what they’d do. For some perverse reason, I… Read more

‘Cause It’s All About *Me*, or at Least Seven Things You Didn’t Know…

Posted in flash fiction, meme | 6 Comments
Well, no, it’s not. But the extreme craziness of my weekend and the fact that I just spent four hours trying to retrieve files off the old hard drive from the broken Dell has done nothing to improve my mood. So, we’ll round off this week with another Meme, as I was tagged by Danica on her blog a few days ago. I’m not really sure how much I haven’t already said on the blog, but here goes. 1) I hate fish. In fact, I hate all seafood. As ironic as it is that I spent most of my summers on an island, I have no problem with fishing or crabbing, but I cannot eat the stuff. (The one tiny exception is my dad’s fried flounder, but even that in only very small amounts.) Otherwise, even the barest whiff makes me want to vomit. 2) I also detest vegetables. (And… Read more
