Title: My summer project.
Post by: Subb on June 02, 2010, 06:11:27 pm: Now that I have finished my course for the summer, other than another few weeks of work placement, I have set myself a target:

To finish a first draft of a novel by the end of the summer.

I've always wanted to do this and I already have 15,000 words. I have a good plot and once I'm happy, I'll PM anyone who's interested.

A little blurb about it:

"An Angel falls to Earth with no memory. Taken in by a Reverend and his wife he sets off on his own crusade to bring peace. The task itself is the least of his troubles it seems as throughout his travels the Angel begins to feel emotions so alien to him - rebellion, love, rage - and all of it adds fuel to the one burning question:

Who am I?"

Post by: Subb on August 29, 2010, 05:00:01 am: I've been updating this every now and then when I've been free from work and have had a good idea. Mainly I've been changing the feel of it. It's certainly much darker than originally intended, but I think it's much better that way. Those of you who have given me your email will be getting the first half in a day or so.

Remember; there's no hope. The Devil is closer than you think.
