Realm of the InterNutter

Thoughts, stories and ideas.

Okay, so it's almost October...

internutter:

I like to have a short story ready for All Hallows’ Read, to give out for free.

Last year I cheated and used my novel Hevun’s Rebel.

This year I can’t do that.

And the lack of success of Scavenger just firkin highlights how awful I am at trying to write scary stuff. [AFAIK, it’s unsuccessful. Nobody’s said boo about it]

SO.

What the flying feck should I do about All Hallows’ Read this year?

Still poking for answers, folks

Challenge #00585 - A220: One Life in Song

Doe, a deer, a female deer

Ray, a drop of golden sun

Doe, a deer, a female deer…

Doe crept between the parked storage containers, heart pounding. She could still see the peak of the ship. She was headed the right way. 

Ray, a drop of golden sun…

Shadows made her jump for all of five seconds before she realised it was her own shadow. A skinny stick of a thing. Undersized, underfed, under-represented and, so far, under notice.

thelastspeecher:

I would like to bring up an important point right now.

Autistics are literally forced to learn NT social skills, communication, and body language.  Otherwise we will be openly discriminated against and mistreated.  I was bullied so extensively when I was young that I cried myself to sleep until I learned how to pass as NT and the bullying effectively stopped.

Challenge #00584 - A219: Rocky Start

Human: *sneezes*

Other cogniscient: What the hell was that?!

Ax'and'l had been dubious from the get-go about joining forces with a human… but he’d run the numbers and this venture was profitable in the extreme.

Challenge #00583 - A218: Draco Nobilis

“Which is better,” asked the ancient dragon, scales dull, horns broken, but eyes bright as he regarded the one sent to slay him, “to be born good, or to overcome an evil nature through great effort?” – Josh

[AN: JOSH! You live! You’re one of my fave anons :D I was getting a little worried that you’d fallen down a hole or something]
