(1)In the Beginning… There was Nothing.

(2) Then He created the World, placing in it oceans and rivers, mountains and valleys. (3) He placed plants and beasts of all varieties into the World.

(4)Next He created Man, and made him in his image. (5)He named the man Alex, and promised him dominion over the world if he proved himself worthy of it.

(6)He then created a series of Trials for Alex to complete and prove his worthiness. (7)Alex struggled through, but completed each labor.

(8)”Truly, you are the greatest of all my Creations,” He proclaimed, as He placed him above all other beasts.

(9)He looked at the World he had created, and saw that it was Good.

(10)”This is a load of crap!” the Editor grumbled. “You name the protagonist after yourself, you put him in a series of sixth grade fantasy adventures, there’s no logic, no arc, and he winds up king of the world? I can’t sell this!”

(11)And so the World was destroyed…

    I think I need some sort of transition between verse 9 and 10. What do you think?

    I luv it, it’s just so funny, you don’t really need a transition, the sudden change makes it better, sort of like a surprise.

    Outstanding story, very original and complete. I like the numbered structure a lot, and it’s sure to inspire many copies here, if not elsewhere. I think the transition between 9 and 10 is just right, as the previous poster said, implying that the Editor threw down the pages at this point. Great work!

    I’m generally a fan of things that take an interesting twist on the Bible. I actually took a class on Genesis and we made a lot of the same points you did.
