Day 594
#15 of days "and that's how the world began!" said karen, regaling the kids with the tale all over again. we had told it so many times now that they knew it as well as we did, but they never got tired of it.
Day 12
#14 of days i woke to the sound of conversations around me. "how the hell can he just sleep like that, its almost unnatural." one male voice decried. "yeah, shit we're air-born rangers and none of us could get half the sleep he did."
Day 11
I crouched down and hugged her, "its only for a day or two babe, and i have a whole lot of guys to make sure i don't get into trouble.".
Day 10
#12 of days we spent the early morning searching the building gathering any and all food we could, it wasn't a huge supply, but thankfully a pantry was filled with canned goods that would still be good.
Day 9
So a hefty plot re-write and a full 'day' re-written as well and he gets a reprieve. i am such a softie :/
Day 7
#9 of days ok, that journal entry about taking some time to read up stickmaker's latest, well, my muse had differant ideas. now eight pages of single spaced text later and i am almost dead on my feet at two am again.
Day 6
#8 of days ok, i layed off the slow, sappy love songs, got some more of mr reznor and his nails on my mp3 player and got the plot back on track. can they follow the threads of hope?
Day 5
She grinned, and i realised that in a few days i would never see that smile, quite the same, ever again.
Day 4
".. the church of our vengeful christ have brought about the proclaimed day. humanity missed its date with armageddon in the year two thousand, we have ensured his will hath been done this day.
Day 3
Twelve of the little things every few days, they said it would stop it from killing me, but that i was dead anyway."
Decontamination Day
They called it decontamination day, but never explained what they meant by the name. only when the first day came did that meaning become frighteningly clear.
Day 2
#4 of days back again, another three am night, when the story starts flowing, i write :) please tell me what you think, give me thoughts on the plot, mainly so i know that people understand where its going.
