Genesis Cage Excerpt 1

Part I:  The Lock  Chapter 1:  Awakenings   
Yellow-white light filtered through the wide window of the room, drenching its contents and its sole inhabitant in shades of gold and yellow coloring, the light reflecting off the semi-reflective white walls, warming and brightening the room considerably.   
The young man who was the room’s only occupant sat on the gray-white of the room’s floor tiles against the bed, and stared at the palm of his right hand with an indecipherable expression on his face.   
He couldn’t quite bring himself to believe that he was now over 500 years

Elara hissed angrily, and with a touch of fear as they sat there for an endless moment.  Finally she took a deep breath and sighed, the tension flowing out of her to Brian’s empathic senses.  “Damn.  We don’t have time to wait around for them to get scared enough to run, or wait for the rest of their buddies to arrive.  We’ve also got that hostile esper on our asses too.  Do you have any idea how close he is?  That’s not the kind of opponent I want sneaking up on us.”  Brian sent his senses ou Genesis Cage Excerpt 2

So, it's been a while since I updated last. NaNoWriMo, then classes + finals + work essentially killed most of my free time throughout Nov. and Dec. I managed to get somewhere in the mid 40k range by the end of Nov on my NaNo project, but I ran out of time. Which is fine, since I intend to finish Genesis Cage and get it published eventually.

Also, now that fall semester's over with and I've gotten my grades back, I can start posting my short stories and other materials I wrote up for my intro fiction writing class. Most of it isn't my best work, since I'm not really fond of the short story format, but I tried to do some things I don't usually do, and it was a worthwhile experience for me anyways. Most of it will get moved into my scraps section eventually, save for the short stories.

Also, since I'm in the process of moving, I won't be able to post much of anything in the next week or two, but I'll try and do some blogging on whatever strikes my fancy.

Haha, I wish. One of my goals is to eventually learn how to draw living things beyond a stick capacity, but the only thing I can do semi-decently is mechanical drawings, and I'm not usually inspired to draw starships and the like.
