Haunted Little Fighter: The Story - qwertz143 - 05-26-2011 sorry chapters will be posted very slowly as i have to study ![]() Haunted Little Fighter: The Story [spoiler rologue]It was a bright and sunny morning. Master Chief had just come back from the planet ‘Halo’. He was riding stylishly on his dune buggy which he called a ‘Warthog’. He was on his way to Mushroom Kingdom to tell his best friend Peach about his adventures when suddenly he was caught in some sort of dark illusion that suddenly appeared. “A black hole!” he exclaimed, “On the middle of the road too… What the hell’s going on?” Suddenly a huge eye loomed from within the black hole like a foggy silhouette of despair. “What the…” he uttered before he got sucked into the illusion and disappeared.[/spoiler]Please give editorials and correct mistakes spelling grammar... RE: Haunted Little Fighter: The Story - Sonic Boom - 05-26-2011 It is kinda interesting but, isn't that peach and mushroom thing from mario? RE: Haunted Little Fighter: The Story - Silverthorn - 05-26-2011 So hold on. Master Chief/Halo, Mushroom Kingdom/Peach/Mario, and Sauron/LotR in one paragraph? Well, this is going to be interesting.... Also, I have not fully understood how this is related to "Haunted Little Fighter". Hope this will clear up soon, considering that the length of the prologue could certainly be a tad more elaborate. As for the way of writing, try to avoid slang-like terms. • He was riding stylishly Except for a little smirk from the reader, this is not helping in building up any imagery. How do you ride "stylishly" on a buggy? Steering with the help of your feet while pushing the pedals with your forehead? I really cannot think of anything that would properly fit in here. • caught in some sort of dark illusion "Some sort" is really not describing a whole lot. Write about what happens, how you can tell that this is, in fact, a dark illusion. I could apply the same to the term "dark illusion" as well, but I guess, you get the point already. • "What the" Only use repititions when you know what you're doing. They're a nice stylistic figure that help bringing one's point accross, but in this context, starting two, almost consecutive, sentences with the same phrase (which also goes rather into the slang-category than the literary area) is not beneficial for adding value to the story. • a foggy silhouette of despair Quite a nice metaphor. First time I read that combination. However, it does not make up for anything. When you write, always think about what you want the reader to think of while reading your story. And, quite frankly, the reason I have not seen this combination before is because I cannot imagine anything that would make the two fitting together. How does despair look like? Or rather, how would it look like veiled in fog? Be careful when choosing stylistic devices; when you know what you're doing, you can achieve some great effects, but when you just wish to put it in there for the sake of having some, it'll backfire. Hmm, looks like I wrote more than the actual story. Kind of reminds me of my poem interpretations from school xD Either way, hope you'll keep those points in mind when continuing
RE: Haunted Little Fighter: The Story - qwertz143 - 05-28-2011 Chapter 1 (Click to View) um please correct mistakes again... Chapter 2 (Click to View) RE: Haunted Little Fighter: The Story - qwertz143 - 06-01-2011 what please comment i need comments to continue so i need to know what mistakes im making RE: Haunted Little Fighter: The Story - Reaper - 06-01-2011 First chapter looks mostly fine, though you should try increasing the length a bit. Other than that be sure to have some variety in your wording. For example the passage: Quote:The drunken ninja suddenly got up and walked up to the man. “M…Mm…Master Rudolf…” he said before puking onto the man’s wooden sandals. The man, extremely offended, shoved the drunken ninja against the wallutilizes the phrase "the man" a little too often. The incomer, the person, the figure... You name it. In the same part, 'suddenly' doesn't exactly convey the image of a dead drunk person. The second part leaves a bit more to be desired. First off, you start many of the sentences with 'he', 'he then' and 'then he'. Again, diversity is the key. Master Chief tends to behave a little strange. First he feels like he'd be dying out of boredom and then he suddenly becomes hysterical? Why so? I believe it'd be more of a steady change and not as if you were flipping a switch. I was quite surprised that the Master Chief knew Peach and the Mushroom Kingdom and is theoretically able to get there with a Warthog. A little background information on this matter would be nice. Though the reader can guess who the creature is, a more detailed description won't hurt. The megaphone seems slightly out of place btw (Even though the Master Chief is there). On a different note, why does it refer to itself as a little fighter? ('We are now Haunted Little Fighters') Additionally, the end is currently rather confusing for a number of reasons. For example: Why are his ribs floating? I really liked the last sentence, though. Anyway, keep on going. (05-26-2011, 07:25 PM)Blue Phoenix Wrote: Hmm, looks like I wrote more than the actual story.

RE: Haunted Little Fighter: The Story - drako - 06-02-2011 Your story is fine but you need to explain the introduction part briefly so that each and everyone is clear about what are actually trying to quote. I must say story is quite interesting. |
