| Three Score and Ten |
Author has written 14 stories for General, General, Mythology, Play, Fantasy, Humor, and Supernatural. So, hi. I'm cobecat (yes, I changed my journal name, sorry for any confusion). I'm not telling you my age or gender because I always find it interesting to guess that about people from their writing, but if you're really curious it's not that hard to find out. Just remember that the physical and mental don't always agree, yeah? Anyways, all you really need to know about me is that I'm a (predominantly fantasy/SF but open to other genres) writer who's trying to get better. I made this account a while ago because someone told me that it wasn't fair or healthy to write things and then not share them. And since not writing isn't really an option (ever had your head explode? It isn't comfortable) I figured I'd try to share. I was nervous about sharing my writing back then and I still sort of am, though I think I'm getting over it. To help combat this nervousness I would love reviews, help (because gods know I need it), suggestions, anything. I don't care how stupid or short your review is, post it anyways! It can't be half as dumb as some of the things I come up with, after all. Some of my stuff might be disturbing to people with a rigid view of religion or society. I'm sorry if anything I've written makes someone unhappy...but I'm not sorry if it makes you think. | |||||

Fragments » reviewsAll the poems I've written in the past year or two. I hate most of them by now, but that doesn't necessarily mean that they're bad. Just juvenile.

Bori reviewsVery obscure West African mythology, rather hideously mutated. Kamil meets an enigmatic stranger with some odd ideas about names, who will force him to make peace between his culture's biases and his own instincts.

The Self, the Other, and Why That Doesn't Work reviewsA short scene about the dangers of negative defintions and isolating yourself. Ostensibly a play scene, but really only written that way because it seemed to be the best form. Much symbolism, not much of that whole 'making sense' thing.
