this is a dumping of excerpts that i just added. now that i have that out of the way it’s time for a little rant… nah, just kidding. i’m too tired to bother today. but if i was going to rant it would definetly *not* be about work…
one of my many ongoing projects is a novel (though i hardly have a rhyme or reason at this point). this incarnation of the project has the possibility to be an epic. essientially a partial rewrite of the bible with the addition of why god made humans. the main characters include job (my favorite biblical mishap), lucifer (the misunderstood angle) and human kind (as the collective). much of the novel is a replay of the bible in “present” times playing into my ideal of godly design.
i am leary of creating an outline here because i don’t want to confuse the issues and… well, i’m still trying to figure it out myself.
excerpts:
-a bit of lucifer. i’m trying to give him a more “human” personality. he’s just trying to help out.
-i read a lot of sci-fi, especially the hard variety. i keep tossing around adding that edge to it but i don’t want to use it to explain anything. it will be used (if i use it at all) as filler and scenery.
-writing in a more film noir-ish style with a bit of action, this was another atempt at creating a feel for the book.
-the largest in the first bunch, this is a more natualistic approch to it. this is the easiest method for me… crap.
