    Take Your Broken Wings and Learn to Fly (The Early Years of The Electric Mayhem)

    I don't like this part very much. Just filler stuff. *** Dew clung to the grass and leaves like spiders on their webs. Animals were beginning to rouse and move around. An early morning bird tweeted above his head. A semi truck could be heard from outside the park and a train honked in the...

    Take Your Broken Wings and Learn to Fly (The Early Years of The Electric Mayhem)

    Coco was waiting impatiently tapping on the steering wheel of the rental car, waiting for Zim to emerge from the hotel. She had waited half an hour in the sweltering heat before he finally came out the front door. "Finally!" she exclaimed. Zim lumbered around before spotting the black car...

    Yeah, I'm going to try and take my time with that. I'm still trying to organize the beginning and try to fix Alex.

    Okay, well if I could figure out how to go back and edit this and have my other failure removed I'd do it. I'm still trying to get a feel for Zoot. He's one the hardest characters I've ever worked with.

    *face palm* okay, well at least someone read it. I know the whole thing seems to be based around the relationship, but it's not. Just wait for it. I should probably go back and make it a point that it's Zoot's opinion about Alex. She's not perfect. I never made her that way. It feels like you...

    Prologue cont. The ice cold bottled water felt good as it slid through Alex's sore throat. She had screamed a lot tonight. She was excited that they were playing in the same town that her sister's band were residing in. She had sent an invitation to her sister in hopes that at least one...

    Take Your Broken Wings and Learn to Fly (The Early Years of The Electric Mayhem)

    My previous work was not very popular, so I took it apart and rebuilt the story from the ground up. I will admit that Christmas Mayhem was a rambling piece of worthlessness, but I hope you guys will give this one a chance. It has more than just romance being the nucleus of it. It's weird, yes...

    Christmas Mayhem

    Chapter 4: Push That Knot Away The next morning, we were spooked awake by the sound of scraping outside. I laid on the mattress quietly and watched Floyd stumble out of bed and walk over to the window. "What time is it?" Zoot grumbled. I looked at my wrist and found my leather watch...

    Christmas Mayhem

    Just keep reading this. I want to make this one work. I've gone back and re-worked Zoot a tad. This one is really slow to get going. I wrote the first three chapters back in December, running through large amounts of writer's block, which is probably why it's so slow to start. I think I've sped...

    Christmas Mayhem

    Well...great. Yeah, I knew it was bland and fluffy and slightly on the stupid side. In the original version they were people, I made it a point that he was Jewish, and it took place in whatever early days the band had. Chapter 4 was going to be where the plot turned around. I hadn't had a...

    Christmas Mayhem

    Chapter 2: Zoot's Main Squeeze I awoke Christmas morning to the smell of pancakes and coffee drifting into the loft from the kitchen downstairs. I glanced over at the clock on Zoot’s desk which read 9:20 a.m. I proceeded to groan, stretch, and roll over to see Zoot’s sleeping form snuggled...
