Create Your Team

Super fun activity today from my fellow Author
Briana Robertson 
In her latest Blog post: Create Your Team

The task is to create your dream team of Heroes and Villains.  You choose one DC character, one Marvel character, one Video Game character and one Anime character for each category. Be sure to check out her list and create yours! Comment with a link to your blog post or just comment your choices :)  You can learn more about mine by clicking on the character names

My Heroes

DC: Black Canary 

Black Canary is a bad ass. Her incredible gift for tactics paired with her fighting skills, sonic abilities and her motorcycle prove that. Her stint as the leader of Birds of Prey gave her a chance to shine and her longstanding alliance with the Green Lantern is one of my personal favorites within the DC Verse.

Marvel: Iron Man

This really doesn't require an explanation.
Iron Man,
Tony Stark
Enough Said. 

Video Game: Hawke from Dragon Age II

 Forged in the tragedy of the war against the Blight. Hawke travels to a new city, and makes a name for himself before saving it from it's corrupt leaders. He's resourceful, strong, powerful, loyal and just a tad rebellious. Oh, and sexy as hell. Bioware really did this character right.

Anime: Alucard from Hellsing

 The ultimate Vampire is a bit unstable but he is not to be trifled with, after all, his mantra goes like this:
 "In the name of God, impure souls of the living dead shall be banished into eternal damnation. Amen."

Did I mention he has different levels of badassery to release? Because he does. 

My Villains

DC:  Poison Ivy 

It doesn't get any sexier or any more dangerous than Poison Ivy. Outside of The Joker, Ivy is arguable Batman's more powerful nemesis with her poisoned lips and her ability to control plant life this bodylicious villain is a strong member of my axis of evil.

Marvel: Magneto

 Magneto is the quintessential Marvel villain, a victim of WWII he was manipulated and twisted by the darkest of humankind. What he became is legend. 

Video Game: Sephiroth from Final Fantasy VII

 The disillusioned super soldier that turned on Shinra and then the rest of the world is as frightening as he is beautiful. He was best of the modified SOLDIERs and his unrivaled abilities make me a must have. 

Anime: Griffith from Berserk

 Sometimes the coldest heart hides behind a beautiful face.  Griffith is just that kind of villain. His brutality and lack of empathy make him the one on my team that you should be the most afraid of. 

So there you have it readers! A fun little break while I work on my submissions. Come back next week for more writing updates and information and don't forget to share your teams with me! Comment you lists or your link to it. Tweet about it using #CreateYourTeam and share it with the world!

Until we meet again!

Focus ( and a new story seed!)

Sometimes it seems like everything happens at once, good or bad, and then you are just left waiting. That has definitely been me lately, a huge windstorm swept through out town knocking out my power and Internet access for several days. Once I got back on, I couldn't seem to focus at all! But I'm back in the swing of things with my new writing area set up, working on a short story submission, a novel, two role playing games, a pitch for an exciting new project! Woah! It's a lot going on! So thank you for your patience as I have revamped. This will not be the last time I'm sure.

I'd love to hear from you though! Below is my next Story Seed. If it inspires you, write a story (2k or less) and send it to me! I'll share my favorites!

Until then, Keep writing!

Story Seed #2

With everything in the world moving, why does it feel like I'm standing here, staring at those eyes?

Want to send me a story based on that seed? Send it to inanitusdolose@gmail.com with Story Seed in the subject line! Submission for this seed must be sent in by September 15th and be no longer than two thousand words. Happy Writing!
