for my contempory series:
This world is far darker than you know...
also:
A tale of love in its purest form

They seem contradictory, but they work, trust me

Re: Describe your character/story in eight words
Story: Resistance group becomes too idealistic, deals with consequences.

This doesn't cover the complete story, but at least the general idea.

Main character: idealistic, fanatic, blunt girl, who messes everything up.

Here's the best one I ever heard retaining to the beginning of the universe:

First there was nothing. Then it exploded.

Re: Describe your character/story in eight words
Hi everyone. I'm new so please be gentle, okies?

This is a great idea and I hope no-one minds me just jumping in. *bites lip then takes a deep breath*

Okay, depending which story, I'm writing at any one time (I have a few on the back burner, as it were), the plot could be:

Unwilling shapeshifters discover ancient cult and must escape.

OR

Apocalyptic future ruled by vampires has new hope.

OR

Demon hunter finds unlikely ally against Deadly Sins.

Dodo.

Dodochicky, welcome...... great examples... Watch out for The End Is Nigh, he's from Greater Manchester also. Is there a Lesser Manchester? Or an Even Better Manchester?

Banished race find a way back. They're coming.
