Hook me in 20 words or less

[brinny]

And thus it was. A nefarious catyclism of abhorrent idiosyncrasies. (hehe just playin' with words)

we're all wordsmiths, y'know

it's like kneading dough, not being' scared of words, but 'playin' with them, twisting and turning then every which way and upside down, inside out until they dance on the page and bring life to an inanimate object....like painting a picture, using words...

From the hellish abyss it rose.

30 words? Ok.

I'm in your room and I'm holding a knife. You can't see me, so don't even try, just keep reading and I'll stay hidden. I can tell if you stop.

30 words exactly.

 

[brinny]

hehe it's 20 words or less

 

[Vehementi Dominus]

Ah, so it is, I blame lack of sleep.

Still, did you read all 30?

If so, then it worked!

 

[Vehementi Dominus]

Smegging double posting.

I clicked "EDIT"!

 

[brinny]

I read all 30 words. What worked?

 

[Vehementi Dominus]

If it didn't work, you wouldn't've read the other 10.

 

[brinny]

LOL if what wouldn't have worked?

 

[Vehementi Dominus]

I'm in your room and I'm holding a knife. You can't see me, so don't even try, just keep reading...

If that didn't work, you wouldn't've read the rest.

 

[brinny]

LOL ok. And your point is.....

 

[Vehementi Dominus]

Ah, so it is, I blame lack of sleep.

Still, did you read all 30?

If so, then it worked!

Those days all you could do was two things, run and hide.

The dripping from the celing was anoying. It would be ringing in her head for days.

With every ounce of strength she had left, Sofia clung to the barge. Water, angry and swirling rose menacingly.

Wesley looked over the horizon. It was coming...the end was near.

Thanks, Shicoco; that clarification was very helpful. Now I have another question. My all time favorite theme, for general fiction as well as fantasy, is redemption. (Not that I always write about it; it’s just my single favorite theme.) Do you consider that one overdone?

[Note. In this context, I’m not using ‘redemption’ to mean Christian salvation. I mean it in a more personal sense, especially in terms of a character whose life has suffered a major setback, either of his or her own making or due to circumstances beyond their control, and who at long last either starts putting the pieces back together again, or else is given a second chance. That’s not the best explanation, but maybe it helps.] (Sunstruckdream, if you’re reading this, think Moonfisher. )]

Also, Shicoco, do you have a link for Christian Writers? What is the purpose of the group? Do you beta for each other, or just discuss writing in general?

Wow, Vehementi Dominus—I LOVE your opener!! It's great!

Ninjitsu—that is an intriguing theme.

Well I made christian writers to meet the writers who don't always post here. But it's also meant for writers to be able to share they're stories and ust hang out in a differen't envioronment than you have here. And it's sopposed to be a place where you can ask questions about writing, and see what you can change in your stories.
