Spin's Stories The stories I start here are released as Creative Commons works, feel free to use them. They contained as part of Saijo City's main library and feed system called 'The Allegory'. One such use of these ficlets is to collaboratively write a short 'snapshot in time' piece that can be turned into a short film or machinima short.

The other, is aiming and firing into the air. A hyper-energetic, hyper-cheerful couple who&#8217;ve been running around the area making fun of people, well, they&#8217;re peculiarly safe in the street.</p> <p>I can&#8217;t really explain the things I see, other than, I see them. They happen.</p> http://ficlets.com/stories/804 2007-03-18T07:04:48Z 2007-07-20T13:56:39Z Spin http://ficlets.com/authors/spin Yes pigs <p>Even though the city is torn, the children are important. In fact, when some of them were killed a while ago when the north side was ravaged, a bloody inscription outside the Port Authority building appeared.</p> <p>Amidst dried blood and below the markings of KillCorp, the haunting text reads:</p> <p>&#8220;When the last brick has fallen, we will scratch the storys [sic] of your crimes on the scraps of flesh of our slaughtered children.</p> <p>Yes pigs.&#8221;</p> http://ficlets.com/stories/801 2007-03-18T06:05:54Z 2007-07-11T14:32:32Z Spin http://ficlets.com/authors/spin Finding Shelter <p>When a city is divided by a wall, Bad Things happen.

It&#8217;s home now.</p> http://ficlets.com/stories/787 2007-03-17T22:27:45Z 2008-07-20T19:11:05Z Spin http://ficlets.com/authors/spin The kids of Steelbox Ridge <p>Every so often, homeless kids curl up inside the shipping containers on Steelbox Ridge in Saijo City&#8217;s northern addition.</p> http://ficlets.com/stories/280 2007-03-14T20:44:34Z 2008-06-21T17:59:18Z Spin http://ficlets.com/authors/spin
