this is the ghost story. it's part of the post-apocalypse 'verse that i may have mentioned but not actually written anything for, and takes place four days after the world breaks. credit where it's due to wikipedia, google, and googlemaps.

There’s a ghost standing in downtown Lowell. )

That's fantastic, especially your beautifully understated post-apocalypse. I love it dearly and want to see you do something more with this world.

apparently "apocalypse" for me means "make most of the world's population vanish in a puff of smoke." i like the idea of an abandoned world. i think you'd have to be a certain kind of personality to survive it well, tho.

also, thank you. :> i'm trying to write more.

I like the soft, quiet weirdness. The plants eating the house. People trying to go on with what they know.

I'm glad. :D I shall prod at you to do so. This shall be my project until such time as you tell me to quit prodding.

well, i was planning to write more to submit to my writing group, and since the lack of plot is completely tripping me up - and i've clearly been reading too much of a certain style of fanfic, because i want to give as little background as possible and still make the story make sense - i'd never say no to some prodding. :D and would not tell you to stop.
