Reggie Miller Writing Continuum Update, 2/22


The words flowed very easily last night as I wrapped up a story and started a new one. Tonight, however, I can't seem to find much of a rhythm. Still, I managed to commit about 1,300 words to the page.

Here's a quick summary of this week's writing endeavors:

Vengeance: Small-time criminal Calvin Collins gets double-crossed by two corrupt cops. Three gunshots later, his wandering soul is given a choice: eternal damnation or the chance for revenge. Months later, he emerges as Vengeance, a powerful being obsessed with meting revenge and guiding corrupt souls to their ultimate doom. (complete, ready for spit & polish)

Capes: Legacy superhero Skyfire gets the chance to join the famed Heroic Guild, but struggles with the group's one unbreakable rule: everybody wears a cape. Skyfire hates capes. (work in progress)

So, yeah, a couple of superhero stories are percolating. I really need to get back to revising a novel or finishing a book that's three-quarters written. Perhaps I'll be able to refocus over the weekend.
