Note: I have changed my pen name from Aleky Lorraine to Aleksy the Flying Onion. Why? I desperately needed a change. I think the new name properly reflects the true me. :D I apologize to anyone who is confused by this transition. Hopefully people can still find my work, if they want to read any of it. ;/
Here's the basics:
Lives in the USA.
Born in Philadelphia.
New Mexico Transplant.
Brown hair. Brown Eyes.
Has sexual affairs with trees. (Jk?)
A she-creature.
Tallness abounds.
Vegetarian.
Pastafarian.
High school Senior.
I love books, guitars, VHS tapes, and meditating.
I think Pikachu is the most adorable thing ever.
Fight Club should be a bible.
By favorite book is The Good Earth, by Pearl S. Buck.
Writing owns my soul. 'Nuff said.
Ichitakimas!
I would like to recommend reading pretty much every story in my favorites, or by any of the authors I've favorited. They are extremely talented, funny, and quirky people. To not read their work would be highly offensive. If you don't, I hope you get a pimple.
Reviews and shtuff.
I want to make a declaration about reviews. I always, always try my hardest to return a review. I understand that supporting my fellow writers is an integral part of the fiction press community. Most of my reviews will contain constructive pointers. I like to try and digest a story as much as I can before reviewing, and that obviously takes a lot of time. Please, refrain from fretting if I don't review every single chapter in your story. I do, um, kind of have a life?
Secondly, I don't expect people to review. Sure, it makes my pants a really happy place when I read a review, but I'm not going to harp and moan about not getting any either in general or in response. Chances are I decided to review a story because it was interesting to me.
So, if you do review, even if it's just a little encouragement, I will grant you passage to heaven. No lie!
Stories and Shtuff.
Sympathy for the Zombie: Lillian lives during a strange time. Diamond Province is a quarantined section of the country infested with zombies, and the presiding government pays mercenaries to exterminate those pesky undead. She stumbles into this new world devoid of much thinking, with only the morose crush of her past named Aidan to offer his own demented form of help. Along with an equally 'unique' cast of characters, Lily will learn chilling things about the the true nature of those sworn to protect the world, and more about herself and the people around her than she really ever wanted to know. Diamond Province is a boiling pot, and the final ingredient will cause an explosion both unbelievable and out of control. Can love, honor, and trust survive in a world seemingly outside of reality?
Length: Almost 60,000 words so far! Many more to go!
Rating: Teen. There is violence (Hello. Zombies!), quite a bit of swearing, a little angst, and probably some romance at some point; there is no procreating in my stories! I despise smut. So I'm sorry if you were hoping for some hot'n'sweaty shtuff between whoever.
Updates: This story is generally updated on a weekly, depending on how school is treating me.
Notes: This is my baby at the moment. LOVE IT! There is a summary up to chapter 17 posted on chapter 18, if anyone wants to jump in up to that point.
I Want War: Roy's the average, subdued product of the twenty-first century. He bleeps the tune of his fellow sheep, working for nickels and dimes as he quietly wades through an identity crisis and feelings of worthlessness. It seems our boring protagonist will never reach his cheapened form of enlightenment; that is, until the universe decides to prod Roy's progress. In the tiny town of Honors, Montana, horror is brewing. On one fateful night, violence consumes the streets and the sleepy citizens are forced into an unexperienced and alien existence. Grasping to keep a hold on reality, Roy somehow stumbles into the role as the one person who'll decide the future of the whole nation. Will he choose complacency and the norm, or a new, terrifying world?
Length: I Want War is a planned short story at the moment. I don't anticipate going over 20,000 words with this little number, but stories have a way of deciding their own length.
Rating: Teen. There is violence and swearing. Nothing outside of what you'd see during an hour of Showtime, however.
Updates: I'm shooting for once a week.
Notes: I'm very excited about this story! It's the newest one I've been working on, and I hope a lot of people enjoy it. :D
The Mirror Appeal of Dysfunctinal Heroics: Ashless Reprieve is an overly ambitious warrior, knowing she will one day work her way up the ranks and become the King of Ganja's revered Diamond Knight. During a peace campaign to a neighboring kingdom, the King of Ganja is eaten by demons--along with the envoy sent to protect him. Ashe is the only one left, despite her novice knight status. During her frenzied flight to reach the capitol of Mecanora to send word to the Kingdom of Ganja, she runs into a lazy exiled Concis Holy, one of the few people in the world with the ability to befriend a demon. There is a lot more to Eden Serenade than his bored and detached demeanor. Unfortunately, there's no one else around to help Ashe on her mission. For whatever reason, this epic of positively epic proportions is told from the perspective of a mysterious, disembodied voice of moderate crankiness.
Length: I dunno yet.
Rating: This one is rated teen. Violence, swearing, and relentless sarcasm.
Updates: Once a week, hopefully. This is looking like it'll be fun to write. :D
Notes: This is a fantasy themed romp, pure and simple. If you're looking for mindless humor and gruesome battle scenes, this is the story for you.
Under the Influence: is an experiment in cynicism. When I feel a bout of pessimism or a blanket of doom settling upon me, which often comes about because of this crazy world, I'll whip up a chapter. Writing style is erratic, choppy, and all over the place. I especially like this story, so give it a look see, eh?
Length: These are very short spurts of writing at a time, but collectively the story is just over 3,000 words!
Rating: Teen. Nothing too disturbing/sexual, as I dislike reading gratuitously nasty things. (For example, I love Chuck Palahniuk, but I could not stand Haunted! So gross.)
Updates: When I feel bad. haha. This one depends on mood, really. Send me mean emails and you might see that I've added a chapter. :D
Notes: These are little flashes of thought processes. It's dramatic, gritty, and bizarre. Each chapter is short; it's easy to get in and get out, but I hope you take a little something with you when you leave.
P.S I LOVE ALL OF YOU!
