If you have something up in Share Your Work, in the Horror Sub-forum, post a link here for the horror room inhabitants to find it!

If you're writing a story for the weekly prompt, and want feedback...DITTO!!!

Happy Writing, folks. Let's start getting those words on paper so we can get some subs out on the market!

New member Velma has posted a story, and asked for some feedback, ya'll.

She says "brutal" is okay. <eg>

You rock, Joanne! That's fabulous...I believe you are the first to get a prompt story up in SYW--which makes me feel quite inspired!

Now I must go and read it. <g>

More from "Shadows"

More from The Watcher

I keep fighting tooth and nail with my internal editor, which is why this scene took awhile to get written. I wasn't sure exactly -how- I wanted this scene to show. I'm at least somewhat satisfied with the results, though.

Now, I can move on..... :faint:

Incomplete scene from "Shadows"


One suggestion I've gotten would be to change, or clarify the POV in this scene.

Any other suggestions, as well?

Andrea needs to be introduced, as she's going to be important in a supporting role. This is also the "lead-in" for the introduction of another character, who is also intergal to the story (The Psychiatrist, who just happens to use rather unconventional methods for healing).










*Yes Mac, I know you suggested I just outline the scene for now, but an outline is not going to help me much, if I have no direction for the silly darn thing. :wag:

Well . . . I've got half a story up here; I mostly want to know if there's any point in continuing it.

I posted my Black Wedding story from the Idol contest because I would like to get around to peddling it for some cash if at all possible! Or maybe just a pub cred. Either would do nicely. I know my grammer and technical stuff is pretty frightening, so help is most appreciated! Rock on fellow horror fans! :Guitar:

Whheeeeee! 1900 words!!!!

800 last week, the rest this weekend.

I figure the scene with Andrea in the apartment was pretty useless, so I tried going this way. Tell me what you think?

Yeah, I know there's not alot of action, and alot of "talking heads", but at least there's hope for this in editing, right? Right?

This is a short horror story I wrote a few months back. I could use some feedback as it was my first attempt at writing horror (or so I thought, seems my other book is horror)

Thanks

Hey! I posted my first horror short story, Blood Diary, in the SYW forum. It's for a contest. I would really appreciate all the feedback I can get on it. Thanks in advance.

Just thought I'd share some old dusty manuscripts.

Reunion is a flash fiction I'd really like to get submitted. Any crits, comments and suggestions for submission will be greatly appreciated.

JD,
I tried to go read your story, but it stated that I needed a password. Do I have to have 50 posts before I'm allowed entry??
