RebornI am not a god of war.Reborn
Not exactly. Really, I never was. And I don't ever plan to be. I was a warrior in a past life, long before man recorded history. Before the world was changed to the feeble thing it is now. I was unmatched in every martial discipline, rivaled by few in the crafting of arms, and singular in many achievements.
I was the spirit of battle.
Then I let myself die. I was not killed, as some may try to say, nor did old age overcome me. For those like me, age was irrelevant. Rather, I decided that there was nothing more for me in that life. Letting my spirit move on was a relief, the end of


My PledgeI pledge allegiance to my Flag, Of the United States of America; Not to this Republic o'er which it flies, Nor pledge I to those who lead it, But to the intentions from which it was born And to those same for which it would be borne. I do not pray for peace, Nor do I pray for war. I pray for the ability to abide in both. For though it be peace I crave, Still to me was given shield and sword. With perseverant vigilance will I unearth All malevolence from within and without, That my valor may justly preserve That pure innocence I do so love. I live in thisMy Pledge


TomorrowTomorrow will be better than today, simply because it is not today. Tomorrow will be better than today, you will learn something special. Tomorrow will be better than today, you will make the right choices. Tomorrow will be better than today, because anything can happen. Tomorrow will be better than today, your wisdom will be fuller. Tomorrow will be better than today, you will be one day older. Tomorrow will be better than today, life will not pass you by. Tomorrow will be better than today, for you will have hope. Tomorrow will be better than today, simply because it is not today.Tomorrow


Inlé landed on his back in a forest in Maine. Something was flung from his leg when he landed. Rolling back over his shoulders, he rose into a defensive crouch. Stuck on a tree like some sort of sappy cyst was a creature of utter shadow.by *wizemanbob
At a glance, the creature appeared black, but in truth it was utterly devoid of color. It had come from a light-less place, and so had been created from stuff with no relation to light. As such small conflicts with the natural world worked to right themselves, the dark creature seemed to flicker through varying colors and shades, an oil-slick onyx boil.
When the creature began t


The carnivalWELCOME TO THE SHOW!" The ring-mans voice bellowed, some how filling the big tent. It slightly echoed and back towards the guests in the crowd.The carnival
He wore black and deep purple striped knee high pants and a long purple coat, and a purple and gold top hat.
The crowd's loud chatter was slowly dying down, but the impatient ring master had not the time to wait for them to quiet themselves. "I have brought to you, my people, my fellow men and women...." he looked around with eyes black as bottomless pits, "..and children....From the far corners of the world, in a place you alone can only imagine in your deepest, darkest


Extra Ordinary Day He just sat on the curb completely detached from everything. It seemed as if everything around him was going in slow motion. The screams of terror and shock from the beings around him, the loud sirens of the Police Forces Sky Cars descending on the scene, everything seemed to be going slower than what should be normal. He had never seen anything like what just happened. The state of shock he was in had left him without emotions to feel. This was the kind of feeling youre supposed to have when watching a movie. He wondered if he was watching a movie. He looked around forExtra Ordinary Day

I went through your gallery, too. You've got some great ideas. If I may say, with a little polish your writing would be very impressive.

Go back over your writing and check spelling and grammar. They aren't important when writing a draft, but afterwards, they become important. It looks more professional, and is easier to read.
After that, word choice comes in. Using the simpler words is usually your best bet. Flowery speech can confuse as often as inspire. But there comes a time when a simple "big" or "large" won't describe the person properly. Then we use something like "giant" or--one of my personal favorites--"brobdingnagian". All four words mean about the same thing, but if everything's giant, people will lose you.
That's my general spiel. You, personally, look to have a good grasp on spelling which, unfortunately, is the biggest problem with many people on this site. Your profile says you're in Denmark, too, so English may not be your first language. If so; congratulations, you spell better than most native speakers on the site.
Where you seem to be lacking is sentence structure, primarily punctuation. Sometimes you have a comma where a period would better serve, sometimes you don't have a comma where it would be beneficial. Capitalize the beginning of a quotation unless it continues a sentence that didn't stop when the quote was last closed. As I said at first, it's little things like that that, when correct, really help make your work shine.
I'll close by saying again that I really do like your ideas, and your stories are quite well-structured. with a little polish, they'll shine like the gems they are.
