A little while ago, I wrote a prologue for a story idea I had. I never even started the rest of the story, but I kinda like it on its own, even if most of the ideas for the story aren't there yet. Part of the reason I stopped writing for it was because I created two really interesting characters for the prologue... and then killed off both of them. And then the 'real' protagonist didn't seem as fun. Clearly I need to learn from Brandon, and make my Cenn character not as interesting as my Kaladin
Earlier this year, for theatre class, I wrote this comedic one act play as an assignment. It's alright, I suppose. Do note that it's unfinished, because there was a page limit, and I was trying to come up with an ending that fit, but the plot is still resolved at the end of what I wrote.

Taking a little break from stuff I wrote in the past, this is something I wrote with my writing club just yesterday.
The premise is that everyone starts a story, then passes it along to the next person after 5 minutes, until it goes back around to the original person. This is the cool wacky formatted story that I started. Note that only the underlined text was written by me, and a \ symbol indicates a change in writer. Also the line spacing is weird, idk why.

When I was in a very Brandon Sanderson phase of my life, I created a nameless setting that I wrote a few works in. Originally, it would have spanned the whole universe, but the only two things I wrote were on the same planet, Flers.

Anyway, I'll just dump setting information, and mention what I like at the end.
So, initially, humanity is just on the planet Flers, on an island continent in the south. A group who has basically monopolized the
About two years ago, I wrote one novella and four short stories in a setting of my own creation. I've looked down on it as weaker writing, but now that I'm looking back, I think there are things worth salvaging. My short story collection especially, as I wrote it later.
One of the things I did was add little "Syndicate logs", information from a mysterious organization from space throughout the collection, to shed light on their motives and plans. I'll put them below. Without context of the
This was also something I made at that writing camp, this one had a bit more work put into it, but I don't like it as much because the gayness isn't the focus of the story, and the poor writing I feel like is more noticable. I also accidentally stole House of Leaves's colored text gimmick without knowing about it. (Also copy+paste is weird, the colored text is supposed to also be bold, but for some reason the entire document is bold. Ah well.
This was a thing I wrote last year at a writing camp. We were given a prompt to show a reversal of who typically has power in a situation. It's pretty mid, but I like it still.
