Wasn’t thinking of the Cats thing I was going back to the original Hive mind I set up in the hive http://ficlets.com/stories/12201. If Burgarz doesn’t do it give me some ideas. As the lesser drones are more worker ant types getting food for themselves and their queen I believe their language to be limited what about something more guttural. Gurrz or maybe name the Queen
Not bad! After seeing I am Legend this could possibly be Norton’s fate. Norton and his Appliances. Felt bad for the Toaster after all he was just being himself probably a hot Latino. Why hasn’t anyone else read this? I have an excuse ain’t been on for two months
Wow sorry to hear that “My iPods are broken”. To have no TV, computer or protable gaming device (I like my PSP) today is like only having fire to cook on and wash your clothes in the river. When we lost power for 10 days during the hurricanes of 2004 we were all lost. I was saved by a propane camping burner stove. Glad you liked it. What will your kids have that can’t think of today?
Fyora I was going to sequel but then I realized I had to prequel you because I predate most yawl yet I don’t feel totally lost. There is a time when we reminisce about our lost childhood and how things have changed. The gaps are growing but we must grow with them or be left behind as Ana Cristina says there are good things that come with age, too. :-)
I am glad you liked it. Did you happen to visit Vanessa’s photo. I wrote this from what the photgraph evoked. As I finished it I realized I am not sure where to go. Sort of triggered from an abduction ring that was featured in a dateline report.
Kind of late to the party but I have to admit your podcast of the Pitchfork Children kicked butt. That was one of my top ten glad to have been able to help. I will have to try harder next time around
Great Job!! Great Challenge!! Honored to be a part of it all!
Don’t see a problem here. Wonderful way to introduce the future method of instruction ala the matrix. A neuro implant allows the entire class to see and participate without distracting each other. Totally immersed in the subject matter WoW! Not into the pain in the neck!
The part of the radio is not relevant. She hears this whether she wants to or not and thinks it is a broadcast song. Great job. True it is not Uber scary but hit us with a uber scary sequel
Very Creepy. Only critique I had was the line they attacked her bloody should it be they attacked her, bloody or they attacked and bloodied her. Loved the creepy sing song poetic verse
Nice build up, like the heart threatening to escape the bony chamber You lost me by time you got to the last line. After your eyes open slam me with the image of your dead grandfather and then frantically rationalize why it can’t be. Just a suggestion
Thank you that was what I was going for. Eventually it will end up in my Brother Nikolai series http://ficlets.com/stories/9363 Take look and let me know what you think
What a challenge!! I have not read them all but there are some great ones here. Gave it a shot and posted two. How are you going to judge em all? Need help?
Nice loved the hairy spiders as blankets and pillows. Ever read the Star Wars New Jedi Order series where the Yuuzhan Vong use Bio-technology and all their technology is alive
Nice. We all wish we could sleep and live in the dream world.. We need to be editors of each others stuf. eg Where peace reigns at the exact time as chaos change to Where peace and chaos reign … together? intermingling seeminglessy at the same time … coexisting? etc
Liked this very much. Loved the emotion here excellent one sided conversation. Great way to start something. I am not sure you will like the sequel but the words took me in a different direction.
Nice follow up. Never thought of a city floating like that in space but why not? Sort of a Venice in space. Now give us where abouts, red dwarf, nebula’s, orbiting anything, asteroids etc
I’m not big on the Greek myths but liked the whole piece ficlet to ficlet. Question is Leda a goddess or a Landowner? Was unsure why Demeter was thinking of Leda, praying to her or worrying she would come down hard on him. Not that it matters she is dead but can’t cross the river Styx, yes?
Ok I started here and had to to the begining because i was so intrigued. So are the ropes alive and what is this power? Who/what is the monster? oooooh feels like an old serial keep it coming.
Really liked it, Never heard of Capgras but thanks for giving us insight and keeping the scenario real. Does the main character know she has the syndrome?
For everyone who enjoyed this. This was fairly true to my story a year ago. Never thought I had a problem until that fateful day. My god it took hours to calm down. Just had another MRI today and the valium is magical
Just entered. Enjoyed the challenge. Not sure I got what you where looking for. Nontheless no sexual mania just a common ailment that many of have and don’t know it
Not bad. Trying to keep it light. Ricky and Dan seem to be some fun loving surfer types. We have them in a meadow far from home things may get tough for them now.
Transplanted to Florida from the crazy northeast. Always loved writing and hid behind doors when I was young and despondent. Read many interesting ficlet profiles and after years of marriage, children, coaching, office work and politics I have come to the conclusion that writing and life are similar.
“Be content with what you have, rejoice in the way things are. When you realize there is nothing lacking, the whole world belongs to you. ” ~Lao Tzu OR “Sell everything you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven.” ~Jesus
My first entry into a ficlet series Stangurdwood http://ficlets.com/stories/9408 which is still going strong thanks to m8ryx and the original rickyDan series http://ficlets.com/stories/9338
My particular favorite venture into vampirism where clerics kick vamp butt the Brother Nikolai series: http://ficlets.com/stories/9363
My Bud Ighnot’s cool Sci-Fi Event Horizon http://ficlets.com/stories/10655
Then there’s m8ryx cool sci-fi The Future http://ficlets.com/stories/9186
