fantasy fiction science shortstories speculative steampunk

This is a collection of writings that I once worked on and then abandoned due to some reason or another. These stories span multiple genres, from general to surreal, from fantasy to science fiction, from steampunk to dieselpunk to cyberpunk. These stories were ideas gestated and half-formed but never got to the light at the end of the tunnel. These are my B-sides.

I'm publishing them here with commentary both as a retrospective on my process in learning the craft of writing within the past decade that I've taken my writing seriously and also as inspiration for a future me to pick up one of these abandoned ideas, and with new wisdom and experience, to hopefully develop it into something new and exciting.

If you're reading my abandonalia, I hope you enjoy and I apologise in advance for some of my rough, raw prose.All Rights Reserved

The Hawaiian Special Forces by WingedPanther73

This is the story I'm writing for NaNoWriMo 2015. The goal: 50,000 word RAW draft written entirely in the month of November. Unlike most of my stories, which I prefer to edit before posting, I'm actually going to post updates to this at the end of each day in chapter-sized chunks. The idea behind this story is that a terrorist attack in the near future causes the US to go hyper-isolationist, to the point that it abandons Hawaii and Alaska to fend for themselves. They do, forming the United Pacific States (maybe with a few other island countries). Hawaii then goes on to turn itself into the new world police with stealthy, genetically modified cyber-soldiers. I'm marking this story as mature because there will be action scenes, and probably some interesting perspectives on nudity and relationships. I'm not planning on anything explicit, but this won't be a kids book. Validated winner at 50,040 words!

A Big Book of Short Stories by WGHTheKing

A collection of my ideas. While most could have been cared for and nurtured until they grew into fully fledged books, they have only matured halfway, creating a efficient way to get stuck in your head. I'll also post short stories that I may or may not try turning into novels. From "The Kid is Hot Tonight," a story about such topics as high school parties and domestic abuse. To "Just Another Nightmare," a story about a kind of hell you might never have thought of. This collection will likely make you question if something is wrong with me. Spoiler alert; there is. It will also show you the farthest reaches of the world and the furthest horrors that I can write about. If you want an update on how the next story is coming along, you can ask me however you want. Seriously I'm so so lonely...

Short Stories | o.d. by Justodd_

This book is finished. I no longer accept any requests. (To be quite honest, I'm not really proud of anything I wrote in this book, but I'm keeping it up because people seem to enjoy it [?]) * * * Cover by - Justodd_ Copyright © 2018 Justodd_

Plot Generator Stories and Ideas by IslandRomanceWriter

I love to mess around with plot generators, and recently I've found one that gives me a full short story too. I, of course, started to mess around with these and found them to be quite fun. These can be uploaded once a day as there is like zero thought process involved from me here (besides attaching my name). PS: For anyone who wants to take a story or plot from here and build or expand on it, you can go right ahead. Just let me know where to check them out, so I can see how creative you are.

Harry Potter One-shots (DISCONTINUED) by Sammie9878

I'm no longer writing One-shots but feel free to browse my small collection of stories. I know they are lame but please be polite and not read them if you dislike them.

Vale's Undisputed Fighter (Rwby MMA AU X Son of Yuri Boyka) by teamACEE

I'm probably gonna get killed for not doing any of your guy's request and to that I am sorry, but I've been keeping this idea in my back pocket for a while now and I wanna try and do it. Again I will continue updating my stories so don't think one story is gonna cause me to abandon the others.

Weak Hero Short Stories by DayNumber505

The first couple of stories are kinda bad, I wrote them almost a year ago, please cut me some slack. The short stories, and mini stories I pride myself in tho, so you should check them out, like even if you check it out just for those, you won't be disappointed.

Redemption's Song and other short stories by TheOrangutan

My second collection of short stories, but longer than the works in my Read my Shorts collection. This volume consists of anything more than 1000 words and includes new works, re-writes of a few older pieces and anything else I found on my computer that I'd forgotten to post before. It will contain steampunk, historical fiction, urban fantasy, science fiction, fantasy, slipstream, sci-fantasy, horror, paranormal, general oddity and anything else that happens to fall out of my ears as ideas formulate into stories. Enjoy. Comments and constructive feedback always welcomed.

Fallen Star by Gogoup123

This is my take on those stories that have only one human male on a planet full of anthros. You know the ones, where a nuke, virus, or/and war that destroyed the human race except for one and for some unexplain reason ten years later furries rule the earth with a fully functioning government and technology. Oh, and sometimes this human has all the powers of comics and mange for also unexplained reason or another. With every character is spelled out on these bio picks before you even read the story, ruining any suspension or mystery the story could have. Sorry, went on a little rant but I have a hard time reading those kinds of stories, so I decided to make my own. So the actual story; A human crash landed onto a alien world where the dominant species are ten feet tall female wolves. Now he have to survive this warrior world that seeks to use him or destroy him, but under his meek facade is something much more then any one could imagine. Hope you enjoy.

30 Day Writing Prompts by thepeacethepanic

30 short stories inspired by 30 writing prompts. If you use any (or all) of these, please dedicate me, PM me, or tag me in the chapter so I can read it! I'd love to. (Guys it literally took me like 5 hours to realise I misspelt Prompts in the Title fuck)
