Title: There Were Five.
Post by: honey on January 09, 2008, 11:30:34 PM
ok... I did it again. New story. I've been planning and researching for a while now and finally decided to just sit down and start it. I'll just research more as I go when I know exactly everything I need to know and exactly how much detail I'll have to go into.

I debated on making this original fiction ever since I came up with the idea and I guess it basically still is, but the boys are still the main characters and hopefully will still have their wonderful personalities. That being said, I'm excited about it and hope people give it a shot. Here's the title summary and link!!

There Were Five

Five extraordinary brothers, separated at birth for their own safety, must find one another and pool their unique gifts in order to piece together the truth of their past and stop the man responsible for the death of their parents before he can hurt anyone else, when they themselves are his number one targets.

Don't go into this one expecting normal Honey romantic fluff cause you'll be sorely disappointed.  :D Like I said I'm really excited about this but I'm afraid its a little out of my league. Haha. not kidding. So wish me luck with the enormous project and I'll update as quickly as I can!

Maybe it's because you differentiate this from the type of stories you normally write? lol

Sounds interesting; I'll pick it up when the Felix Awards are over. :)

It's definitely different than what I normally write, but I think it should probably still feel like me when you read it. (if that makes sense at all) but I think I just spaced it when I started this thread. haha I was thinking new story new thread. *shrug* or I just wasn't thinking... Unfortunately that happens a lot with me.

lol but don't stress about getting to it anytime soon. There's plenty of time to put it off. It's hardly a story at this point. But that's kind of fun that you want to check it out.  :) Makes me feel all warm and fuzzy. Yay! Thanks!



Yay Rose! Yeah, I thought it would take longer than it is, but I finally got all the planning as planned as I could. (you should see all my brightly colored note cards and such) And it was just to the point that the only thing left was to just start it and see what happens.  Thanks though for helping me the other day. lol if you look at the story on the site I actually listed bot si-fi and supernatural as genres, though I'm still not convinced it's really either, but techno-thriller wasn't a category... neither is super hero stories. though I'm not sure its a super hero story either.

anyone else have any thoughts on what kind of genre this would be? like for instance, what genere is Jurassic Park? of Prey? (both Michael Crighton books that this story sort of reminds me of...)  science gone wrong kind of thing...

hrmm so is this not a romance and about all five of the boys? I admit I got a little tingly when reading the summary. Is this why you needed the foster info? lol

Yeah it is, and thanks for that.  But after all is said and done it will only be mentioned in like one chapter and he's just gonna steal it all anyway, but I still wanted to make sure I had an idea of how it worked. 

and lol yup, no romance at all. The only female character in the story, other than the occasional stranger on the street, is the boy's mother and sadly she doesn't last too long. haha. that shouldn't be funny. Its sad really, but I'm sitting here laughing. I'm a jerk.

The book I would say is science fiction, until the screaming starts. lol

It was more for the shameless self indulgence because you used my name. lol I am, however, thinking of perhaps writing a romance. :-[ It's been floating around in my brain for like two weeks now. But I'm sure I'll finish PBox and the idea'll be long gone. lol

(I say this, not because I've read it, but because Kelly is going to pull it off and amaze us all :))

 :o Chapter two is up already! Yay!  For some reason these chapters are freaking long. Like  almost double what the chapters are for any of my other stories. I wonder why that is? *shrug* I guess it doesn't really matter, just an observation I noticed.

Because you have to describe things more? lol

Because you have to describe things more? lol

maybe, but it might be because I'm kind of following two different story lines simultaneously . There's the story that's happening now, and the pieces of the past that we're figuring out as we go. I've never done a story with flashbacks before... that's I'm sure what the difference is now that I think about it.

Well, yes then, that would totally make sense. :P
