A Christmas Microfiction

...or at least I think it's a microfiction. That's basically anything below 100 words, right?
Anyway, I just thought this up and thought I'd post it here. I'd like to sub it somewhere, but I think all the e-zines have closed their christmas entries :S Here goes.

Tall, a stoic triangle, eerie. A silhouette against its own, strange lights; concentrated points of yellow and red light shine from it, leaving a blue, blotchy ghost of itself in my vision whenever I look away. Metal glints from it, cruel-shaped hooks and serrated streamers. A crown of twisted metal adorns its high, imperious brow, glinting in the lights. Black and greenish like hornblende it’s spiny appendages hang in the dark, adorned with their eldritch, garish decorations. I never did like the Christmas tree.

You all have a merry christmas, and don't let your tree mutate into a horrible monster which'll eat your brains and suck out your intestines through your ears!

NaaaaaaaaNOOOOOOOO!





















I can't believe it. I won! I just uploaded all of the pic's because I wanted to show you all how happy I am! :P Just printed out my winners certificate and I am now being moved to the St. Augustine of Hippo's NaNo Rehabilitation Center for the Fried of Brain. There I will be able to recover from my terrible loss of creative juices and maybe swindle some bourbon whiskey out of a nurse for a bit of brain-fried celebration.
I just want to take a moment to say...
WHEEEEEEEEEEEEHAAAAWWWWWWWWWW! I feel the best I have from any accomplishment ever, probably! Im so happy I don't evn care it I Mak sens bcaus I'm jus so tired of tping!
Anyway, I know what you're wondering.
How did I do it? No, that's not what you're wondering...
Any tips for new Wrimo's who have yet to do it? No...
What you're wondering is...
Who the heck is Saint Augustine of Hippo?
Well, he's the patron saint of sore eyes. And let me tell you, my eyes are sorrrrrrrre.
Anyway, just wanted to tell you how wonderful I feel and I hope all of you are feeling wonderful as well!

Yet Another Blogger Blogging About NaNo.

Well! What a lousy blogger I am. Haven't blogged in two weeks! I fig'r I should blog about something. Or, perhaps, blog about nothing at all!
Hmmm...maybe not such a great idea. I'm thinking I couldn't fill up very much with nothing at all.
I know! I'll blog about NaNoWrimo, like everyone seems to be doing lately.
So with NaNo coming up in about a week, I'm done with my outline for my novel I'll be doing. I started about four days ago.
The stink of my fried brain permeates through the house, filling every single room.
But I'm done! So nyah to my lazy tendencies! Victory is MINE!
Now that I'm done with it, I just need to wait.
I'm not really worried that I couldn't write 50,000 words in thirty days. That comes down to about 1,500 words a day, which isn't too much. My biggest concern is that I'll run out of story before 50,000 words. As ridiculous as this may seem, I'm used to writing short, concise short stories, not novels.
But anyway, I think I stuck enough stuff in there to make fifty thousand words, so I should be good ;)
