#WritersCoffeeClub #Writing 07 What genre are you least likely to write? Why?

Christian anything. Or kids anything.

I couldn't write anything Christian with a straight face. My version of the gods in this WiP is enough to send me straight to hell (again) a dozen times…>=)

And kids are the world's toughest critics. If they don't like something they'll tell you in the most honest and harsh way possible. I like that, by the way…=)

#PennedPossibilities 425 #WritersCoffeeClub 02 #Writing Favorite part about writing?

Worldbuilding. That's the part where I'm truly get absorbed into the world I'm creating. I love writing the story part, but that won't happen if that world isn't a "real" place first…=)

#WritersCoffeeClub #Writing 17 How much of yourself is in your MC, or do you never write this way?

Not much beyond MC's height, some of his ideas about fashion, and a few traits I exaggerated a little to make him less likeable…>=)

Now, some people might tell you that I'm *MORE* lazy than Our Hero, but they only deal with me at work…>=)

Every year, the night before the night before Christmas, everyone gathers for the return of the Spirit of Reprimand, who every year comes to take away the most disobedient child. The one who not even Santa could forgive and bring him gifts. The one who, if left among them, could, and would, become the next Great Tyrant. Such is the Spirit's unpleasant mission. But you know what's worse? The true horror? "Mop Hands", the name by which the Spirit is known...

—How do you do it?

—Do what?

—Move like that? How can you even stand in these things? I can't even stand up.

—Years of practice. You must learn to let your body do things on its own. It's designed to do everything by itself.

—How?

—The same way you learned to use your old body. You used to walk without thinking how to take a step, then the next, right? You were thinking "I want to go to the store" and that was it, right?

—Yes.

—It's the same here.

Her best friend's family company built it. Her father paid for it. Her brother piloted it. Her cousins maintained and fixed it. But she, Camilla Jones designed the ship and led it. The ship never mover from the secret base where it was built yet it allowed them to see other times and places. And she knew how to physically go to those places. She fell in love with a time and a man's music from that time. Before returning she took his big clock as a souvenir…

The Sky Seed was the basis for the new space station the government would build over the next decade. The station would be the Factory Of The Future­™. Everything would be developed there. Mass produced on Mars, of course, but designed there. Most companies had already bought space for their development units. Living space would be comfortable enough. Then "They" came. The station had to be converted into a mass destruction weapon. Just as its designer had planned…
