Never too Much to Hope

(I start right after there was a sickening crack)

There was once a young man walking along the stormy road on the eve of the darkest Friday of the month. His blue eyes almost glowed in his tan face, and his long legs took wide strides over the ripped turf. Destruction was coming, something shivered in the air like silk in the wind, and the man could sense that it was not good. His fists clenched as he walked over the countryside, away from his home and his family, away from everyone he had ever trusted. Life was a trivial thing, so he thought. Especially his life. He wanted it to change and indeed, it HAD to change before the wildness was broken free from the gates of whatever stood between him and his new life. Something was coming, he could feel it in the ground beneath his feet and heard it in the rain drumming the bare tree branches. The man suddenly stopped and turned around, unsheathing his dagger. He was stunned to find that Batman was standing right behing him. He jumped and screamed a little. Batman gave a cruel laugh and glared down at the man, one of his stoopid little ears thingys falling over his eye. He hit it back up with a annoyed slap.

"Ya wanna see how high I can fly?" Batman asked in a high squeeky annoying voice

"Uh...sure..." the man said.

 Batman gave a small leap looking quite like a pinguin.

"Oh!" He squeeked, " I think I need a running jump." Batman ran to the top of the building and jumped off "WATCH MEEEEE!!!!!!!!!" He yelled as he dropped at a rapid speed towards the asphant.

An old woman eating a hot dog she just bought looked up in shock at the black object shooting out of the air straight towards her. The Dark Knight fell right on the woman's head. There was a sickening crack as the old lady smacked Batman with her enourmous handbag.  "Whaddaya think you're doing, sonny?" she demanded.  "Quit bouncing around and sqashing me for no apparent reason!"  With a loud 'hrumph' the old woman walked right up to the young man, and, although he had never met her, addressed him by his first name.  "Kyik, go find a sword that has 'Draw me not without reason' traced on one side of the blade and 'Sheath me not without honor' on the other side.  If you draw any sword but that, you will promptly die." 

"But most swords are kept in sheaths, so how will I know if it's the right one if I don't unsheath it, and if it isn't the right one I'll die, so I only have one chance!  What am I supposed to do?" Kyik yelled in desperation as the woman walked away.

"Draw the right sword, stupid boy," she said casually over her shoulder.

Kyik sighed and went to sheath his dagger, then stopped as he..........

 

*grins wickedly*  Okay, drehounda Kantare!  Take it away!

Told by TheWriter

I feel I must ask, how in the world do you come by so many readers? Is it great storytelling? Do you advertise? I must know the secret! I would like some more input in my storytelling then I am currently getting, yet I have no idea how to attract more people to my blog! What must I do?

Your friend and fellow writer,

"The mountains are beautiful and wild - a deadly paradise if you are not prepared to face their moods. Most of their peaks are topped with snow all the year round. The wind carries the scent of pine and rich earth. The streams are ice cold and clear as the purest crystal in the world. The sky is a rich blue, nearing purple on the tops of the highest mountains. You can see for miles around from the tops. The lakes lay like turquoise, the streams and rivers are as lines of silver, the trees, well, trees will always look like trees more than emeralds or jade, but they are still lovely. The towns and stations are like clusters of gold and diamonds with a few rubies thrown in. All this under a bowl of sapphire during the day and an expanse of black, diamond studded velvet at night. The cool, keen air is worth worlds. "The people there are different than those of us who live on the plains, with their own customs and traditions. They are fun-loving and will dance all night under the moon when they can get away with it, but never have I met more wise and woodcrafty people. Their lore is deep, and they still remember many things that have long since been forgotten here on the plains. Ever fresh on their minds is their days of glory when the Old Sarconian kings still ruled them, but they know that those days have passed and they desire the unity of the country. I was born here [on the plains], but now my heart lies in the mountains. I am a Strianelian." ---- ~Jasper Watson

My Writings

Sarco

Please note that this version of 'Sarco' is still in draft form.

The final version will be better written and contain several plot changes at the beginning of the book, as well as more character background.

'Sarco' Chapters 1-12 and Prolouge
'Sarco' Chapters 13-27 and Epilouge

This is, more or less, the final version.

I'm only going to be posting the first two of three parts.

'Sarconian Highway'
'Sarconian Scout'

Proeiden Tessares

Under Contstruction

Check under "Links" to find 'Proeides Tessares-The Draft Novel' for Chapters 1-25 .

Undergound

Under Construction

This novelette is under construction and different than my other writings.

Get on the Underground

Jonathan-
Warrior Prince

A dramatic rendition of
I Samuel 14.

Part Two was written before Part One, so expect minor discrepecies in my retelling.

Part One
Part Two

This Is Where We Plot

Partially the center for Sarconian history.

This has bios for the characters from 'Sarco', as well as a writer's musings as I look back on the construction of my first book. Maybe then, but not now! I, Joshuel, have highjacked this blog!

Enter the Apple Barrel
Would you be seen on the street in a costume?
Good grief, no!
If I was going to a party.
Maybe, if I felt like it.
Oooh yes!
