Dang it!

   Well, great. I did a little research for Song of the Dead and found out I have to change some things ... Sometimes being a writer can be so fun; other times, it's a horrid nightmare of scribbling out stuff with red ink.

   At least, though, I'm open to ideas. I think I can work this out. I think I can. I think I can. =)

Idea

I fiddled with this for a while... like it?

Song of the Dead

     Song of the Dead is a twisted Historical Fiction. It is set in 2011, and the main character's name is Lade. She is nineteen with blonde hair and blue eyes. Lade enjoys listening and making music; it's been in the family for generations and it's where she got her name, Ballade. It is German for 'song.' Her father's side of the family is German and her mother's family is from the old country called America. Lade and her family are citizens of Ander, German for 'other.' Why is America now Ander--a German-controlled country? Well, everything changed in 1945.

      Hitler won WWII.

Getting Started

     I'm starting my book over. Again. Ha, this'll be the fourth time I've started with a blank page following "Chapter One." Yipee. I was informed today that I can write a short story on a twisted historical fiction piece of work. I'm not sure what my instructor's idea of 'short story' is, but none of my stories are short.
     I hate having all these ideas playing tag around in my head--ideas with this story, and ideas with that story; ideas for new stories and ideas for ones I haven't looked at in years.
