It's been a while, but I thought I'd make my presence known. I have not died -at least, I don't think I have- and I have been unbelievably busy --on writing, I mean. First, I did that virus piece. Not self-promoting; just stating that I actually did it. In fact, it's not even up on the website, so... and that was my nano. Ended up being around 137,000 words... with the majority of it being two chapters... Those chapters are going to haunt me when it comes time to edit.

Second, I am ... See More sorry to say to the fans of my quizzes that my big project I had in the works... is gone... To spoil it: It was a Choose-Your-Own-Adventure. Over 40 paths made with a certain program that, sadly, refused to cooperate in the worst of ways. Combine that with the main source of my writing archive going up in flames (luckily I have several back-ups for it, though they were all one or two chapters behind... and all of the CYOA material), and family issues and you have one bleak October --which shall henceforth be Broketober.


Luckily, I have not broken, and here's the post to point that out in its special, long-winded way... Of course, that's not the only reason and, in fact, my long-windedness is feeding into the challenge!

Magic: it comes in many forms, many ways to cast. We've gone over this before, showing magic, specifically fire... like... A LOT of fire... so how about we approach this in a rather... unorthodox way. Magic, after all, is magic. It can be as serious as you want it... and as silly and nonsensical as you wish.. SO, let's see that craziness! Let's see some zaniness this Black Friday--if you celebrate Thanksgiving, of course. Otherwise, this Friday... doesn't have the same ring to it, does it? Write a scenario where the magic seems completely off the wall... and yet still has a bit of sense to keep it all tied together. After all, anybody can write that somebody simply sighed and a shoe grew to the size of a skyscraper and demanded to be fed peas or else it'll knock over a single tin can in the middle of the street which will prompt an alien invasion where the hostile lifeforms are all made of cheese, but how does one tie it all together? What makes the sigh grow the shoe? Why did the shoe grow, and why that specific size? Why did it gain sentience, decide it was an herbivore, and want- no, demand specifically peas? In fact, why is there a single tin can in the middle of an unknown street and why does it summon aliens made of cheese and not peas when struck?

I could give the answer, but there's the second part of the challenge: Others have to guess how it all fits [in your posts]. Have fun.

So I am still deep in my nano, only 700 words of my 50,000 left to go, with a week to go. the books nowhere near done and like all my work it needs someone with more patience than myself to spellcheck and grammar and makes sure I've used the right words.

Hows everyone that decided to do it this year getting on?
are you enjoying it?
do you like it yourself?
how many words are you up to?
how many words to go?
will you finish the book?

... See More />and happy thanksgiving to everyone who celebrates it

Hello everyone! I'm new on Inkitt and I've decided to share my first werewolf story here! It's a precious one for me! Plus, there are so many awesome people here who share the same, extreme love for everything werewolf! So, my story is called "Selene", and it has greek mythological themes. I've also added some German lines, since the Alpha co-protagonist is from Germany. Though I think there is more to it, and I could certainly use some feedback and ideas on it.. I've done my best to write it ... See More as well as I can. and I've been extra careful with the grammar. Moreover, I decided to make it mature, but I've come up with a way for this story to fit all audiences. If you check it out you can tell me if it was the right thing to do! I love criticism, positive or negative, but as a writer, I always express my opinion in the best way possible. Kindness is the way to everything. That's it. Sorry for my long text, I appreciate you for reading this!
