What do you mean by "pre-established characters"? If you mean from other stories, then, no. The point of this particular exercise was to get away from all of our previous characters and ideas. So, I wouldn't be for that.

However, just so you know, I really enjoyed your last post. It reminded me, in essence, of The Iron Giant. However, what's the name of the woman, Jennifer or Carol?





Oops! I messed up! I was typing Jennifer whilst thinking Carol. I was laughing to myself while I was typing the chapter that the girl ought to be called Jennifer, and that Darmo ought to adopt the human nomencalture of Scott..as in the movie " Starman", which has long been one of my all time favs!

The woman is Carol, and Carol she will be for the rest of her life. I went back and changed the "Jennifer" to a "Carol."

Glad you enjoyed my post!

BTW, Iron Giant is also a fav of mine, though I was not consciously going for a story that was similar to it.

I actually did live in Lincoln Illinois for two years. VERY small, very redneck town!

I'm really getting into my writing now, in here and in my "Short Stories" thread! Has anyone here been reading it? Just curious. I plan on reviving a thread I started months ago called " Tales of The Truly Bizarre and Twisted", or something like that.

I know I have lots of room for improvement; it is why I am writing in here now.

The additions you all are writing in "Tabula Rasa" (Blank Slate) are fantastic! Love 'em all!

Got ya, Pro, about not bringing ANYTHING pre-established into here... everything here is to be brand new, which is cool.
