So yeah, I'm a science-fiction writer looking for some readers. If you're so inclined to check it out, it's up for free at
www.chainedreality.com. For those of you who may be skeptical, here's a snippet of the first chapter:
The horizon was ablaze with the orange hue of a setting sun. A warm breeze blew through the stalks of now browned and moisture deprived corn. Bustling of dead leaves could be heard through the vast fields to the left and right of the now empty interstate highway. Keeping a steady pace along the road, Lenny’s gaze fixed on the path ahead. His normally brown eyes had faded to a weak grey, which was also represented in the lightening of the tone of his once dark brown skin.
Although his demeanor was steady and purposeful, it was easy to tell his mind was wandering.
“This ain’t exactly the life I had in mind. Seems like everyone’s gone, even the Junto. I can’t believe things happened so fast, I mean they didn’t even explain to me what was happenin. All I knew was that I needed to make sure that the birds got to where they needed to go. Guess I should be thankful though, things coulda been worse. I could have been on the front lines.” thought Lenny. So much had happened to him in the matter of weeks. All he could do was reminisce on what had been, since no future was in sight for him.
Note: Criticism is welcome, just make it constructive please. Thanks /b/
