My live journal has long served as my poetry blog

but it seems to by dying.  I tried posting this there seven times and it wouldn't stick....

Only it turns out they both survived.....

But I was going to post the poem here.

Instead I will post link 1 and link 2

The Fires of Prophesy Part 2

A story of what happens when the ambitious try to meddle in the affairs of True Gods.

[Script] Tossing Grenades At Windmills - Page 63

Inoria
Well, we eat them, it’s only natural they try and eat us. 

A fight ensues between denizens of candy land and the heroes. The gingerbread men charge them. Grenademan tosses grenades. Inoria shocks them, Hawkqueen cleaves them in two with her talons (retractable), and Chainsaw Fred liberally applies his chainsaw to them.  

GRENADEMAN
FEEL THE WRATH OF MY GRENADES OH FOUL DEMONS OF CANDY! 

FRED
Look, Frank…since there is a remote chance we might not get out of this, seeing as how we’re out numbered by about-well the entire population of Candy Land to four, I wanted to apologize for hitting you. 

GRENADEMAN
NO APOLOGY IS NECESSARY FELLOW SUPER HERO CHAINSAW FRED. WE ARE ALL WARRIORS ON THE SIDE OF JUSTICE, SOMETIMES WE MUST SMACK FOR THE FORCES OF
(interrupted)
 
Chainsaw Fred cuts more gingerbread men in half while Grenademan tosses more grenades.

FRED
Look, I realize that there might not be much left of you in there right now, but someday you might come back. I love you, you’re my brother. But this super hero stuff, people that get mixed up in this. Well, I mean, look around, I don’t want this sort of thing happening to my kids.

Writing Update

So far so good. I'm behind where I wanna be, but I've got three stories complete so far, Skip's story, Making the Demon and Raising Timmy.  Raising Timmy seems to have the most potential of the three but it will require some rewrites.  All of them will.  I'm sitting on em for three months, then I'll do an edit, and then wait for three more before another edit pass and submitting for publiciation (ie rejection) but I'm learning from past improvements and time helps a lot.

Working on two more stories that I just started. I'm trying to do them both at the same time, and I'm mainly trying to write more during the day and night to get myself ready for NaNoWrMo and..failing miserably.  I'm mainly writing at night and weekends, which just won't do for....you know, that name is a pain to write, let's call it Death Month, shall we? Anyway, I'm gonna start notes on characters and plot outline here likely in April.

Podcast is chugging along nicely.  I sometimes have 10 people listening to it. I think my voice actor has some fans :D He is good at reading for GMVZ.  I'm getting a mike delivered this week but will likely resume reading sometime in April.

Finally, since I have a goal to write 3 scripts this year and Tossing Grenade Vs Windmills is going to run out in April or may, I'll need SOMETHING to replace it for the blog....Unfood will last a while, but I do  plan on doing another short film some time next year, and I'll likely start with the strongest of the three scripts I write this year.

Hawkqueen
Make it stop! Make the evil stop! 

GRENADEMAN
EVIL?! THERE IS EVIL ABOUT? 

CANDY QUEEN
No, there is no evil about, but please, come sit and join us for a lovely meal. 

CHAINSAW FRED
There is something defiantly just wrong here. It doesn’t feel good. 

Inoria
I know. Besides being insipid-it just makes the hair on the back of my neck stand up-I mean the way they’re looking at us-it’s almost as if they were… 

CANDY CHORUS
Hungry! Hungry Hungry Hungry for some human flesh
Tastes so good with ketchup and a good potato mesh
Gobble up the heroes and throw them in the stew
Creeping up to fill our bellies we’ll all eat you! 

Chainsaw Fred starts his chainsaw.

CHAINSAW FRED
That’s what I thought.

Inoria
You know it makes sense in a morbid sort of way… 

Hawkqueen
What?

Inoria
It looks like we’ve come through some sort of dimensional rift….we’re in (interrupted) 

Hawkqueen
We’re in-where the hell are we? 

CANDY QUEEN
Why, you are in Candy Land!  

CANDY CHORUS
We welcome you to Candy Land,
Candy Land, Candy Land
We’re so happy that you’re here in Candy Land, We Want to Happy Dance With Joy 

CHAINSAW FRED
I almost wish we HAD been killed back there.  

Inoria
Insipidity is getting rather tangible isn’t it? 

GRENADEMAN
GREETINGS DENIZENS OF CANDY LAND! I, GRENADEMAN AM HERE TO PROTECT YOU FROM THE FORCES OF EVIL! 
CANDY QUEEN
But, but there is no evil in Candy Land. Only happy lovely candy. 

CANDY CHORUS
Happy Lovely Candy on a Sunshine Day
Lovely Groovy Gumdrops and some Liquorish Hay
Have a lumpy dumpy blip bop time
We all wish you could stay and play!
