Short story is due Tuesday. I meant to turn in Blood Is Sweeter, but the story I have wound up writing is set a few years earlier than Blood Is Sweeter (and a few years after other stuff I'm working on), and could possibly be soundtracked exclusively by Cobra Starship (in fact, I may title it The City Is At War).
Word count: 2236
Page count: 8/~15
Plot: Sam and Al have met and are flirting. Soon to come: a lunch not-really-a-date, a party that makes the papers, a parental freakout, a lunch really-is-a-date, angst and makeouts.
***
In other writing news, here's the tentative dramatis personae for the story tentatively titled Warped Omens.
Supernatural Beings
Apocalyptic Horsepersons
Humans
Them
Full chorus of Tibetans, Aliens, Fangirls, Atlantisians and other such rare and strange Creatures of the Last Days.****
And
* Brent was Pestilence, but then they invented penicillin.
** As you can see, I'm stumped.
*** Either Siska or Chiz, I haven't made up my mind yet.
**** Mainly played by members of Cobra Starship. Except for the fangirls, who are mainly played by me.
Suggestions/changes/wtf am I smoking?
