Questions
I normally do not like democratic methods of doing things... go figure.... but I thought this would be a good way to see what every one wants. Please choose from the brief synopsis below as to which story should be posted up here next…
Follow Me Through Time: Follow Me Through Time is the next in the History of Hyrule. It deals with the charters of Seven Years in the aftermath of Gannondorf’s exile. While in the beginning this story seems to have little to do with anything, soon a swashbuckling tale of romance, pirates, heroes and princesses unfolds to reveal more about the hearts and minds of the characters, as well as the introduction of people and places that become important players in the following tales…. All in all, it is much like Seven Years, though much more lighthearted. A fantasy with very little in the way of philosophical (though maybe some psychological) undertones…
Empire of the Nine Kings: A science-fiction idea I have had for a long time but never started writing until recently. Pulled from his cloistered home at the Lost University on Luna (the real name of Earth’s moon BTW), Edward Erickson is placed on a special task force being created by the Galactic Space Peace Corps. The GSPC is somewhat akin to the modern day UN, an international (or in this case interplanetary) organization with little REAL power that has great ambition on getting MORE. As Edward tries to figure out who to trust and who to fear in his suddenly enlarging universe, he learns more about his fellow team members, and the secrets each of them hold… Empire of the Nine King will be much longer then any other story I have written, so be prepared for the long haul. It will be fairly dark at times, contain more adult oriented material (themes and language), and has substantial philosophical and political underpinnings (true patriotism, international relations, morality, situational ethics, etc…)
A Literary Caper: In the Earth of the far distant future, humans have found that the best works of literature (the classics if you will) are so well written they are actually doorways to alternant realities. Czar and his team of treasure hunters travel to alternant realities, bringing back noted items to sell to various clients. Only one slight problem… this is not entirely legal…. The story centers around Czar, the team, his adopted daughter Amy, and their adventures. Several philosophical themes come up, but it is mainly just a fun story to read and write…
Tales of Icirus: A collections of short unfinished stories, the Tales of Icirus cover modern day New York City, magical fairy filled forests, whirling desert sands, and everywhere in between. Fantasy, Science Fiction, and a fusing of the two all happen over the course of the Tales. The stories ARE unfinished, and will remain so. The goal for them is to get the targeted age group (teens) to revise their interest in writing. As such, the Tales have a good deal of character and surroundings development, as well as the beginnings of a plot, but it is left for the reader to finish the story….
There are four choices for you guys… the poll will officially close in one week.

Peter, we are going to be there graduation weekend! We're going up both times. :-) So we'll get to see you..yay!
Yeah for the lick-the-lighters!
But you didn't anwser my question....
Okay, I really want to read Follow Me Through Time, but that's just the romantic in me... I also like the sound of Empire of the Nine Kings. So those are my votes. ;)
EOTNK sounds like a lot of fun, but I would have to vote it in second place. First goes to A Literary Caper, which sounds like it would let out a bit of a lighter side of your writing.
Could you just write something about a boring, common guy who lives a boring, common life... and please try to make it interesting B-)
I would like the Tales of Icirus. That said, anything is good - I just feel like a variety. Well, I don't feel like a variety - I feel like READING a variety of stories.
