I'm trying to become good enough to write my own original story with my own original characters so to practice I'm writing short stories based on prompts I find online. Please tell me what I do good and bad. Especially the bad I am trying to improve after all and any feedback will help. Thank you! -KittyKat

In the year 2478, war broke out and left the world terribly devastated. Nuclear weapon after nuclear weapon was fired, killing hundreds of millions of people and causing massive damage to the Earth itself. Many species went extinct, and if any survived, the radiation from the craters in the ground caused any animal to mutate in horrifying ways. Few people were left, most hidden in shelters far underground. Four hundred years later, after so long from being underground, many of the shelters are forced to vacate their safe facilities to face the Earth - or what's left of it. This story follows sixteen year old Sebastian Gray as he forgets everything he knows about the secluded underground to survive in the world he only heard stories of as a kid. (Warning: contains profanity and gore.)

A series of short stories about country life. The Roar of the Locust King is one of these. After nuclear winds sweep through the plains of the American midwest, a young orphaned boy finds refuge in a coastal ghost town. Under siege from cannibalizing hoards, the town must decide whether to keep him and share their slender resources or let him brave the winter alone. Whether he survives the winter will depend on the kindness of strangers. However much he needs them though, it soon becomes apparent that the boy has a hidden talent that can save them all.
