WIP Wednesday
It's Wednesday again and you know what that means! It's time to share some WIPs! Have you made any progress from last week? If so, let us see o u o /
Copy and paste the last two sentences of your WIP (or more), and let's keep each other motivated.
Here's mine:

Nakano's hand shot out to grab Vincent's wrist. Missed. He hissed as he caught himself at the edge of the bed. "Wait! What happened to Chloris? You said you'd tell me!"
Vincent glanced over his shoulder, his expression blank save for the dark rings under his eyes. "He escaped with the rest of them."
And with that, he left the room.




(Trying to pick one to put here made me realize just how many WIPs I have going on right now. ;-; Too many.)
She beamed at him then, her smile Vault-white and gleaming, and settled into the chair with her back to her house and her face turned towards the open crater of Megaton.
The houses here were all tin shacks, but they were tin shacks in <i>very</i> high demand and he had no idea what a single scavenger like her could have done to earn one. Hadn't been sure she'd take kindly to him asking. Sometimes they didn't—nobody hired Charon because he was good at wondering things.
Oooooh, sounds good already! ; A ; In two paragraphs you've already got a solid setting. Great job!
“No… No way”, Natalie shook her head. “It’s merely a story. Impossible for a meatball seller to bring his cart up to seventh floor”.
Great job! I would be interested to know more Natalie and the meatball seller.
Ahh, you're continuing the meatball seller story! ; u ; Definitely feeling the love for the unnamed seller already.
Thank you for your motivating words @Anne_Tilney and @Yuu Sorry it took so long but finally I've finished this story. Will do editing and revisions on some parts and I'll post it soon here! XD
Can't wait to read it :D
Ahhh, congratulations! Can't wait to see it!
Posted it! Hopefully you won't get dizzy when you read it :P I've edit it by giving paragraphs and spaces, but it still turns out like that (no spaces!!)
My heart pounded. I had to cut the head off the dragon, so to speak. But that proved easier said than done. Claws clicked on the cobblestone street. The aura blade dripped ink-black blood. I ran my right hand across it.
The vileness vanished as it was consumed with light. Shadow people raced towards me. They extended their claws. I jumped back. Their claws just missed me by an inch.
Too close. I had to be careful. They circled me. I took a deep breath. Remain calm.
Sounds like a sticky situation ; A ; Stay strong, protagonist!
Che will stay strong by slurping all of their heka (magic) like noodles.
Nice work. Is your WIP Caster?
Your world building sounds so developed ; A ;
And yes it is! It's currently in its third revision and eats away at my weekends o u o
Thanks! This novella that I am working on is attached to a massive universe that I have been working on since 2005. While I don't have everything set in stone, there are some things that I have fully developed.
In fact, right now, I'm working on world building/research.
I saw your drawings for Caster and they look so pretty. I read the first three chapters of Caster and I liked.
High five to long project buds! Caster was started back in 2004 and the world is still expanding and developing (and nowhere near finished), so definitely empathise with you. Still, it's so much fun and wouldn't want to trade it for the world.
Oh man, really?! That makes me so happy to hear, thank you! You gotta hit me up on tumblr so we can chat more or something; I would love to talk projects and world building with another writer!
High fives you
Even though my universe is a huge pain (a massive mashup of different mythologies and religions can be a challenge to mesh together to form one coherent premise), I love it to bits.
BTW, thanks for following me on Tumblr.
