    Title: Hunted
    Summary: Lucretia Valerius was the daughter of a Roman General until one night of passion left her something else. Two thousand years later, she finds herself hunted by a group of vampire hunters intent on killing her all the while finding two new additions in her fight for survival. Who is the hunter? And who is the hunted?

    A tale that continues from the oneshot I did for my good friend and beta, Cloverreef.  It’s an attempt at a different writing style and definitely one that I enjoy and hopefully you enjoy reading as well.  Again, a little slower than my usual, but hopefully that’s a good start.

    It’s been an interesting experience.  What started as merely a diversion away from my two mains has taken on a life of its own.  I hope you enjoy this, although this is a slower burn than my usual and a different stylistic approach, so…  Experiments!  Concrit welcome and appreciated.
     

  11. Writing a summary/blurb

    in Writers' Corner

    Posted

    Well, I have the same problem with regards to my own, so I do understand.  Not going to lie, even with the advice from the thread I started a while back, it’s still a hard thing for me to do.  But, some of the advice has helped.

    I’ve been working on trying to pick out important parts from the actual story and develop them into a workable summary.

    For example, if your story is about intergalactic space pirates who raid the wrong colony and are consequently hunted because of it, it could, for example, read something like:

    One wrong decision.  A raid on the wrong colony leads to the crew of the Fortune in possession of a weapon of mass destruction.  Capable of destroying any planet in the known universe, Captain Shey Charlton must resist the urge to play God while the Fortune has to outrun the entire might of a galaxy united, hunting them to the ends of the universe and back to reclaim it.  But each side of the allied forces have their own dark plans.  And the only ones in their paths are the unscrupulous raiders.

    (...Damn, now I have another plot in my head that won’t go away… lol)

     I believe it was BW who said that the summary should interest you and make you want to read it as you, yourself, are the one you need to sell it first (paraphrasing of course...  And if I messed up the paraphrasing, that’s on me).

    A review?  Well, time to dust off the shelves and make way for another response. ;)

    Into the Shadows

    From ANON-LCee:

    dont normally like vampires but i liked your other stories so i gave it a chance. it was really good i really like octavia. are you gonna use her in anything else? a prequl would b cool

    Well, firstly, I have to say, thank you for your review.  It was quite a boost after being down.  I don’t usually write vampire or supernatural stories myself, so that may have a reason why you liked it.  But, as for Octavia, she was fun to write, even in her brief appearance within.  I may use her in something else, a prequel as you said, so she could make a reappearance.  But, thank you, again.  And I’m glad you like my others as well :).

  20. Overcoming Negativity: Advice and Thoughts?

    in Writers' Corner

    Posted

    So, in the recent weeks, while not negativity strictly speaking, I have been given some pretty harsh advice and a questionable PM elsewhere. This has led to a pretty downward spiral, admittedly.  Yet, this has got me thinking…

    Everyone has dealt with harsh criticism from people.  What advice would you give others, especially newcomers, in regards to this?  How have you dealt with things like that in the past?

    In my case, I am glad to have such good supportive friends to turn to and I'm glad to have this circle of writers.  Good friends who often slap me upside the head (metal baseball bats included); being able to talk to them is definitely a plus.  Being able to come here helps, too.

    Many times, it's good, old fashioned mayhem; death, destruction, blowing things up, beating the bloody hell out of people...   That helps, too.

    Hopefully this tread can help others... :)

  22. Unattractive, but Redeemable Flaws

    in Original Character Development

    Posted

    Obviously, in my opinion, all characters need their flaws.  Without them, a character becomes two dimensional (the tomatoes can be thrown, I can use some ketchup ;)...).  Without flaws, a character is just "perfect", so to speak.  Or, if irredeemable, becomes simply too evil.  Reality isn't as black and white.  

    I'm probably rambling and not really answering things...

    Honestly, I think there’s been way too much censorship in the history of man… 

    100% agreement.  And this has been brought up a few different ways here, too, so it's not just you.  I find that the current generation (sorry...) is the worse for being easily offended and wanting to live in the bubble of "nothing bad ever happens"…

    Only if you’re writing a how-to-guide with the intention of carrying it out…. imo.  I’m on the fence when it’s confessional, because this is one of things you shouldn’t fully act out in the name of “research”, like a bank robbery or something equally sinister.

    "But, Officer, I assure you, I only robbed the bank and killed people and, you know, sodomized some with that pole...in the name of research!  I'm writing a how-to, do-it-yourselfer book on striking it big and laying more people than you can believe!"

    On a related note, I read that on the Pirates of the Caribbean rides at Disney’s them parks, they are getting rid of the tableau that shows several tied-up women under a sign that reads "Auction -- Take a Wench for a Bride." This I’m okay with, because, you know, forced marriage and sex slavery kind of aren’t cool anymore. :)

    Damn it, now where am going to sell all the kidnapped souls in my basement? (Okay, throw the tomatoes now, I'll see myself out.)

    On a serious note, definitely a good thing and idea.  Understandable in the context of the time period and all, but...  Children!  Damn it, children!  That's probably not the best message to be sending...
