In Darkness and Red Light
I'm not 100% sure I like the fact that I'm participating in a compilation book by a guy who calls himself matty the mick, but I have to have some kind of motivation, and "a deadline" is pretty good motivation, usually.
Anyway, the story is tentatively titled "In Darkness and Red Light" and it's about two people (a male and female) who are probably the last two people in existence. They travel on foot over a place that may or may not be earth 1,000,000,000 years in the future, or 1,000,000,000 in the past. So far it's about two and a half pages long. I had a friend read over part of the first draft, and she said it was like "reading a surrealist painting." I like that.
After I find out if there's any kind of non-disclosure things I have to adhere to, I may or may not post a sample, or the whole thing here.
When/if this sees completion, I'll point anyone who's interested in procuring a hard copy of the book for themselves in the right direction. However this probably won't be for some time.
Also, I'd encourage anyone who want's to submit something to this book to do so.
