HathNoFury

I actually posted this snippet years ago--in my comments section. Do you remember the days of improvised pages? That was a pretty clever system wasn't it?


Okay. So I mentioned something about snippets didn't I? I guess I'll start with the most recent: HathNoFury. I'm not nearly as done with this as with the others, so it still kind of reads like a rough draft to me. Thoughts?

I stood leaning against the trunk of my car. So this was it. This was Chamberlain, the new school. At least my parents couldn’t uproot me till the semester was over: I couldn’t graduate otherwise. Maybe I could actually make friends this way. Eyeing a leggy brunette in a mini I amended that thought. Then again maybe not. I chanced a glance at the sky. Sunny now but with dark nimbus’ telling of rain soon to come… Chamberlain; You could practically hear the stick being shoved up this place’s proverbial—
“You’re new here aren’t you?” I glanced up to behold a girl who held a somewhat distressing resemblance to a poodle. “Odette Ishtarmia right? I’m Christie, your guide for the day!” I resisted my gag reflex. Just barely.

So I have been hinting at this, but just to confirm all of your suspicions, yes, I am Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die. In all seriousness, I am once again abroad--In Israel now--and once things have settled into some form of normalcy I will begin to blog about my experiences here--and they are many!

About

More often than not, I read blogs that serve as daily diaries of a sort or review trollops (not that I don't enjoy my review strumpets). Astrum Umbrarum (or "of star shadows" as the Latin is translated), lies somewhere in between, as I have discovered over the years. Life Reviews. As I live, and travel, create and explore, I will discover beautiful things. This space is where I hope to share those things with all the snark they deserve.
