Excerpt: Robin's legs were crossed tight, and his face looked strained. "Where are all the Bat rooms? Like, I gotta really go."
"Not so loud, Robin, I stayed up, watching reruns of Gillian's Island."
Excerpt: Captain John Boyd woke in the early chill of the morning, drenched in sweat. Dreams of blood and steel, of cannon-smoke, of dashed hopes and severed lives, had plagued him all night. Though it was well after dawn, the sun had not yet ascended high enough to spill over the snow-capped peaks to the east. That's how life was at Fort Spencer – short dull days and long, lonely nights.
Excerpt: He kept walking, trying to keep himself composed but failing miserably. He passed a homeless man, who asked for a handout. When Melvin dug into his pockets and tossed whatever change he had at the tramp, he had the nerve to call him tight. The anger swelled up in Jack some more and yet, he managed to keep it under check.
It was hard to give handouts when you had just been fired from your job. It was hard to earn money when you were stressed, down and depressed because everybody treated you like dirt in this rotten city. It was hard to get any sleep these days when nobody cared - nobody but Jessica.

Excerpt: Lara Croft stepped out of Lloyd’s Bank and onto the short flight of stairs that led to the car park. A light rain drizzled down, glazing the rows of cars. The weather was cold for a June day, making a shiver run through her. The hairs on the back her of her neck stood up as she headed for her car. Danger was close by. She walked slower.
A few feet away, a teenage girl emerged from behind a mini-van and scurried toward her. Lara tensed up, but she couldn’t imagine what kind of threat the girl posed. The girl had a slender, elf-like body. Her short, blond hair lay flat and soaking wet against her scalp. Enthusiastic ice-blue eyes peered out of a round face.
“Someone just robbed me!” the girl cried.
Excerpt: The sun was shining high over Sim City, the battle at the Travel Agency well under way. The Sims had been fighting so long, they could hardly remember why. But Lucy knew why, and she knew why the battle must be stopped. Hand in hand, she and Nick ran toward General Anthony, who was sitting on his horse, surveying the fighters.
“Flargus nar!” Lucy cried as she and Nick approached Anthony. “Bakus floo kooba, de?” Nick turned to her, confused. Why had she lied to him about the woman, and yet told this man, practically a stranger?
Excerpt: Harry Potter sighed as he stood at the top of a grassy hill on a dark night in June. He gazed up at the twinkling stars overhead, focusing on one celestial body in particular.
“It's been another year,” he told the bright star, “and I still miss you.”
Excerpt: Upon Darth Vader's arrival too the planet of Cophrigin, he had only one goal; That of his future bride to be and her execution if she refused. Unbeknownst to him she was a master Jedi knight. She also had a women under her watch present on the planet with her that he had carelessly ignored. A young women with unimaginable powers.
Excerpt: “I will never return to the woods of New Jersey; in fact, I may never venture from within these walls again, for that which so repels me has roots far and wide, and so I fear the world. For posterity, I record here what I learned while I still held my job as a private investigator.
“Hidden away in the woods, there can yet be found the hidden hatch that leads to the cellar. That cellar, once a part of the large, elaborate home of one George West, Esq. West settled in a largely uninhabited area with his wife, Amy, and had three children: James, George Jr., and Joseph. They were happy for a time, and others were drawn to the house and the family, and a village was born. Disaster followed the building of the local church building, a proper Methodist establishment.

This month's question: Have you written any fan fiction to share? Send your link and I'll share in the next newsletter.
Answer below  Editors love feedback! 
Last month's question: Have you written about weather related changes in your character's thinking/behavior?
BIG BAD WOLF Happy July 4th!  responded: One character I wrote about used to have a thing where snow was concerned, as it triggered bad memories.
Quick-Quill  sent: Interesting thought. Just another layer of connection to draw a reader further into the story. Good call.
Howler of the Moon  replied: I haven't considered how weather affects my characters' thought processes, but I did think about their mood. One character of mine, Sebastian, goes to a northern country during a war. He hates the cold and can act a bit snippy. |
