Literature

The Day God Fell In Love (Pt. 1)

"Kotomi-sempai, why are you so sad?" she asks. I am not sad; I am simply grieving. Grieving over the loss of a loved one. "Kotomi-sempai, why are you so mad?" she asks. I am not mad; I simply still cannot overcome my guilt. My guilt that is rightfully mine to bear after all I've done. "Kotomi-sempai, will you ever move on?" she asks. I already have; but there's this part of me that will always come back to this place. To your grave. To sprinkle your grave with the sakura petals that fall from up above. To come back and find myself standing in a time where the sakura once bloomed. "You're still here Kotomi-kun." I turn around, and

To Wash Her Feet... by Newbr, literature

Literature

To Wash Her Feet...

Her hair was an illustrious wave upon the mid-evening breeze. Invisible to those who weren't looking for it; a velvet sheen of black for those who found it. We were busy, me, her and the others, teaching in a way that only Uncle and Auntie would allow us to. With silence, fidelity to the task, and in faithfulness to our Lord. For it is He who found us here and it is us that he had chosen to carry on this small part of His Work. Part of me questions the hypocrisy of such a mission. That if God wanted us here to serve these little ones then God wanted those terrorists to do what terrorists do. To think that God might see righteousness in vanity

Walking Away by Newbr, literature

Literature

Walking Away

The hardest thing to do in life is to walk away. At least according to those who say it is. Walking away is a passive act of motion; flowing in a direction not directly affected by what follows closely behind. It’s like a river spring that flows open from a mouth in the mountain. It’s a slow trickle that slowly joins together with other trickles and soon come to form the river everyone knows. Walking away is like a newly formed river. But just like the water that flows in the river, walking away is not stoppable. You can’t stop walking away from problems once you’ve started walking away from even just one. It’s l

White Knights by Newbr, literature

Literature

White Knights

So I've been hearing a lot about how this world is full of creeps and retards and idiots who use women just to allow themselves some pleasure. Yeah, that's the contemporary side of society and quite frankly I couldn't care less about it. I care about the side which does concern me. That is, the side about the White Knights. White Knights are apparently something like the stuff of legends. Apparently, they open doors for women, they treat women like they're actual human beings, and can sympathize and burn away all the bad things about men that supposedly, women think men are. White Knights? Fairytales? No. The fact is, a White

May by Newbr, literature

Literature

May

I'm like the wind. I go where I wish to go and I do what I wish to do without restraint. I'm not careless or reckless or go against the law. I simply do what I wish. I get good grades because I want to. I run track because I want to. I learned how to play the piano because I wanted to. I eat a good diet because I want to. I ate two entire cakes because I wanted to. All the things I wanted to do I've done. Well, except travel to Germany and see a performance in the Munich National Theater. That I've come to terms with. My name is Veronica Lorraine. And I know he loves me. But I get the feeling that I'm not the victim here. If anyone's

April by Newbr, literature

Literature

April

I don't consider what I've done to be extraordinary. For that matter, I don't really consider anything I do to be extraordinary even in the slightest sense. What I do is normal. It has to be. It's not like out of the three billion people that live on the Earth, that I'm the only one who does the things that I do. But then there's April. Cute. Kind. Should've been way out of my league but instead, I find her to be by my side every Wednesday afternoon, every Monday morning, every Tuesday and Thursday during lunch, and every Friday and Saturday in the late evening, and early Sunday morning. In exactly that order; exceptions sometimes hap

Arise by Newbr, literature

Literature

Arise

Some might think that this world's hell compared to what the rare history books say. The early 2000s and 1900s are nothing compared to now. Prohibition? A laugh. NSA turncoat? As if we all weren't one at one time or another. I find that burning the pages of these books give me the most satisfying of feelings; more so than burning the new enemy of the world. I can grant the world a freedom by ridding itself of the tyranny of the past. Thus, I burn books with gun and fire. Reality is much tougher and more durable than the past. Who defends the past but the faded facade of the present day? As I walk

Just a Little Something for You... by Newbr, literature

Literature

Just a Little Something for You...

May you ever sleep without worry, Find your dreams manifest, And promises true. For if you live and die away your words and memories will stay the same. Into the abyss of time will I go. Into the endless sands of the hourglass will I sink. Without a thought, without a sound, without a word, will I leave. Once lost, never found, a hole punctured never to be filled. Silence is key among the walking dead, for there is nothing I guess left to be said. Forever though will I know that once upon a time, you were my Valentine. To love and be Loved.

Yaer: A Tale of Three Kingdoms Chapter 5

Chapter 5: Isryli My sister stayed there until the early morning. I could tell she was different; somehow, some way. I don’t understand what could happen in a single night that could change a person. It’s not like she knows the person right? It’s not like she understood him on a deeper level than most people come to understand each other right? She can’t have simply gone to him, said “I love you,” and had him for dinner or desert…or both. There has to be a logical solution to my dilemma and curiosity. I think that beyond doubt my sister thinks she’s the Usurper. We both know that there is a cha

Six Word Stories~

She's far stronger than you think. *** I love you: three deadly words. *** Be careful; she's a delicate butterfly. *** Can't the peace overcome the hate? *** You and I, we are perfect. *** His lips are warm, for now. *** Hold me until dawn's subtle light. *** He's rare, don't loosen your grip. *** Your lethal words aren't welcome here. *** You mean the world to her. *** Use more tact the next time. *** His heart is torn to pieces. *** You only gave her shattered glass. *** He had my heart held captive.

So you wanna make an adoptable species

Disclaimer: Everything written here is opinion. I get a lot of people asking for advice, for critique, and I just want a post I can easily link to. There is no "right way" to make a species. There are TONS of variables that might affect your success (in sales). Nothing here should be taken literally. It's only my opinion & personal methods! -------------------------------------- Not in it for Money -------------------------------------- I DO NOT recommend people make an OS for the specific reason that they want to make money. It's fine to want a little bit of spending money or something in the mindset of a little side-project. But

My Bio

It's been several years since I've started writing. Once upon a time I fancied a career as a writer but now, it's just a useful skill and a lovely hobby.

As the years went by, the paper itself started floating away upon the winds of time. Time flies when you watch it pass by. And the world moves.

Blog Post: Compare and Contrast

0 min read

Hello my non-existent audience, Posted a new thing to my blog: https://atz.home.blog/2019/10/28/no-clear-way-forward-for-the-na-lcs/ And just for comparison... something rather old and potentially telling of the kind of writing I'd eventually like to do: That... now that's a old tome if I've ever seen one. Wow have I come a tad-bit far. Just a tad. Thank you non-existent audience for reading! :P

Personal Update: Blog/Website Start!

Hello DA Community, It's been a while. I hope you all have been well. Whoever it is that has watched this old account of mine. I've begun publishing content on my own website with the first of a new series start linked here: https://atz.home.blog/2019/10/21/the-deviant-prologue/ Any and all support would be appreciated :) I hope you enjoy. I may or may not decide to pick up the old pieces that I did start on DA and publish them on the new blog/website. Of the few that I did start, the Yaer series and maybe The Day God Fell In Love will probably both get their turns. Maybe. I feel like both have fairly decent potential and that if I jus

I Walked Away From My Best Friend

0 min read

So as you may or  may not have known, I was going through a rough patch recently. I met a girl while I was wandering the local Gamestop, as one of the store associates and I were talking about League. We three kind of just bumped into each other; no other sort of social engineering was required. But I got her number, she got mine, and we ended up meeting up both in-game and afterwards. We quickly got to know each other, and I soon found myself inviting her to hang out with my best friends, whom I've known since high school. She's an instant hit. So much so, that it was almost like she had been part of our group all along. We went out more, w

Thank you for joining

! I'll quickly explain how you can make the most out of our group!

Bullet; Blue

The easiest way to take advantage of the group is with our Features! We do a weekly 1 person feature, with a few paragraphs of your strengths, some pointers on how to improve and one Featured Deviation

Bullet; Green

To get a feature, all you have to do is check out the most recent feature and add a comment onto the Featured Deviation!

Bullet; Red

I'm sure you're wondering, "How can you encourage people to say something other than "cool"?" Well, our group offers badges to commend thoughtful, kind, encouraging critiques and words. So far, we have not had anyone simply give a one word reply. Which makes us very happy!

Bullet; Pink

So, the badges you may ask? Currently we offer two badges, The Community Spirit Award and the Rising Star Award. The Community Spirit Award basically commends people who are community minded, offering critiques, comments, features etc.

While the "Rising Star Award" is issued out once a month to those who appear to be "One to watch"; showing great promise and skill. Its recoginising hard work, basically C:

As always, we hope to grow and expand. Any critiques, suggestions or thoughts on how FeatureMyWork can improve will be appreciated!

Feel free to ask any questions!
