Preview To My Latest Story!
Just a preview, lemme know what you think!
Preview:
"Nuka!" Argnon called. His long brown hair was tied with a leather strap behind his head, and his face was red from working in the sun.
I turned around to face the man. "What is it?" I asked, I tapped my foot impatiently, feeling the bow and arrow on my back, itching to shoot an arrow at the bird flying overhead.
"Be careful today." He told me, turning back into the house. I rolled my eyes and kept walking.
Suddenly, flames erupted behind me. Our house! It was on fire!
"Argnon!" I screamed, running toward him. The fire made pressure build up inside the house, causing it to come apart. People ran from the villiage, pouring buckets of water on the little cottage.
I grabbed a bucket and poured as much water as I could, but the fire wouldn't go out.
I woke up coughing, choking, there was smoke... I knew it. It wasn't just a dream.

Ooh, I like it so far! Is this the one for NaNoWriMo?

NO! I did a couple scenes for character development, to see how Nuka would react to things when something happened, and this was one of them so I posted it as a preview because it seemed like the one that would leave the biggest cliff-hanger. However, I doubt that this exact thing will happen in the novel, something similar, just not this.

Ooh... Awesomeful.
I don't really get NaNoWriMo. What is it?

I just had total deja-vous about that wall post, Anita. Whoa.
Anyway, Thank you, and NaNo is like a race (kinda...) you're basically trying to force yourself to write 50,000 words in a month (November.)

I just spent like an hour reading random stuff on the site. It looks fun and I might try it but there's like a one in a 50-gazillion chance that I'll actually win. XP

That stinks...
It doesn't matter if you win or not... Like, there's no prize or anything.

Re: Preview To My Latest Story!
I know. But I'd like to join ASAP so I can look around and get ideas and such. It's not fair that you can't join unless you're 13+.

I did. I'm going to join the main site, though, once I can. But I probably won't even get to my goal on YWP. Speaking of which, it won't let me set a new goal. And it says 2008 everywhere. Have they just not updated anything yet?
