Synarchy Book 3: National Novel Writing Month Update #5

Reminder these are unedited, raw, straight from my brain to the paper and complete with the notes I write to myself as I’m writing. They are out of order because I write in scenes, not necessarily chronologically all the time. Warnings out of the way. Enjoy! Feel free to guess, speculate, what have you with what’s going on, and where it might lead. I just might tell you if you’re right.

 

“If a timeline is significantly changed and not corrected within 33 days of that change, reality seems to bend to that truth and doesn’t allow it to return to the way it was no matter what you do after the fact.”

“How many times has that happened before?”

“On Earth? Twice.”

Simone rubbed her temples. She glanced back at Caleb, the snapped her eyes right back to Saraya. “What Gabriel did, is that why-“

“No. We changed that.”

“Why?”

“Because you’re going to need help.”

“And if I… correct the timeline?”

Saraya said nothing.

Emotion crashed into Simone as the reality of the choice Saraya was asking her to make sunk in. If she corrected the timeline, Caleb died. If she didn’t, he lived, but the world didn’t Ascend. Her jaw clenched. “Oh you sonofabitch.”

“I haven’t prevented it.”

“What?”

“You can’t prevent a choice that’s already been made. You can only prolong it.”

“I’m on borrowed time regardless of what I do?”

“Yes.”

A gut instinct she could not explain put her in motion before her brain had made its up mind. Saraya asked the air to carry her and shot forward. She moved in and out of time, arriving at the helicopter in half a second. Saraya reached in, grabbing the girl and threw her out, chucking her through the same rift she had used to reach them, pushing the human woman through again and again until she landed on the ground. She would be banged up, but she would live. Saraya did the same with both of the men. When they were out she shoved the metal machine with all her might, pushing it through an opposite rift. It crashed to the ground a few meters outside of the circle.

She would have smiled in triumph but her strength left her and she toppled to the ground.

Pictures are so fun….

Seriously. There is no other point to this post. Pictures.

Saraya moved cautiously down the timeless hallway, the gold plated walls marked with the language of the [name], those whose job was to create such a place on every planet created by Source. Saraya’s eyes were trained on the faint whisp of color, a trail. All beings in a state of high emotions left an energy trail behind them. Gabriel’s was very bright, and had not been hard to follow. Saraya frowned, disturbed she’d been correct; Gabriel had created a bridge in time.

On some plaents the process was more difficult than on others. On Earth, because of how many times civilization had destroyed itself in the proces of it’s evolution, and the energy left behind because of it, creating a time bridge was a fairly simple process.

Synarchy Book 3: NaNoWriMo Update #2

As you all know, I’m participating in National Novel Writing Month. I am a little behind. However, I am also determined. And I promised you all snippets. So! I’ve got a few scheduled for you. They will pop up the rest of the weekend. Reminder these are unedited, raw, straight from my brain to the paper and complete with the notes I write to myself as I’m writing.

A dark cloudless night [hmm to cliché or not to cliché].  You could see a million stars from the field, the nearest city lights too far away to compete with the light of a star a billion light years away.

Everything was peaceful here.  A faint breeze carried the smell of a grassy field and played with blades of grass as it passed by.  The ball of Light was so small it was easy to mistake it for a firefly.  It skittered through the breeze, laughing at the playful nature of air.              The Light hovered over the field and in those seconds determined via a complicated algorithm whether or not the spot could hold the energy required for the message.

It was determined that it was.  Buzzing happily, the tiny ball of Light began.  It whipped through the field, depressing the long stalks, moving so fast if a hum watched and blinked one moment there would be nothing. And in the next what the mortals of earth like to call a crop circle had appeared.

Job complete, the tiny ball of light flittered away tagging the wind so as to resume their game.

DCS on Skywatchers Radio!

Very excited to announce that on the day of my birthday (a glorious day where planet Earth was blessed with my reincarnation), Wednesday November 19th at 10PM PST/1AM EST I will be a guest on Skywatchers Radio live on the PSN Network!  A little bit about Skywatchers:

Skywatchers Radio has been on the air since 2009 both on radio, and internet tv. This show is based on the exploration of both exo politics, and ufology in general. But first, and most important we want to bring to you the listeners the best possible information not heard on normal terrestrial radio anywhere.

We will not cater to any cults like movements or promote propaganda on this show. We are here to do honest research within the world of Ufology, and again exopolitics. The show is once again produced, and presented by Angel “Tha Jackal” Espino the original host of the show who now brings along with him a team of researchers, and yes “Skywatchers” who will join him each, and every Tuesday night right here on Dark Matter Radio Network.

The show will feature full time co-hosts Alan Wyler, and special reports on a weekly basis from such folks as Dennis Crenshaw, William Michael Mott, Tim Swartz, and many many more.

We will be discussing Synarchy Book 3, the TV show, and I’m sure many other things. It’s a late night show, so take a nap, grab da coffee and come hang out!

Author Updates. Boom.

Such Habits. So Good. Blog Updates. Omg!

Sorry, I had to get a li’ll Dog there. I’m sitting in my comfy boss like chair, drinking my coffee and preparing for my day and I had the thought I should update you all! Like super fast, really quick, boom here’s what’s up.

So I’m gonna.

Book 3 – Where are our snippets beotch? They are coming. No seriously they are. I have been writing, just not quite as much as I want to be, but I have been. I intend to blow that shit up this weekend so I’ll be smart and pre-scheduled. some posts to automatically update here. Look for more random Book 3 snippets Monday. Maybe earlier, we’ll see how I do this weekend.

Legacy Audio Book – I’ve recorded the first five chapters. Now I need to go through the editing process. I’ll be adding a faint overlay of sound to some scenes, see if I like it. The more important part is if you like it so I might do a sample with the first five post em up and hopefully get some feedback.  The Master Plan is record the whole book, edit it up, and then also pre-schedule it so you’ll have forty five days of Star Wars Fan Fiction all up in yo face.

Roleplay – It will admittedly be a while before I re-launch Synarchy RP. Howevah! In the meantime you should still come RP with me. Head over to The Secret World. It’s a free to play (with an awesome F2P model not like SWTORs don’t even bother just subscribe) and I’ve been running an RP Cabal inside of it for a year now. We’re small, and growing with big plans for the next year. Check out the Cabal’s website The Phoenix Group. Come RP with us!

The TV/Movie – Still happening. It’s not an idea that has been abandoned trust me. Anything Indie is hard and takes time, especially with something so friggin huge like Synarchy. When I have some concrete updates for you, you’ll be the first to know.

Woo-Woo – I’m doing better, but it’s a WIP. I mentioned in my last blog post that I was reading Red, Hot, and Holy a Heretics Love Story, by Sera Beak and it’s been frigging enlightening. Shadow work is next for me, and I expect that will be… challenging, and awesome, and omgwtf why, and just everything. When I have some deep shit to share with you I will. Right now I’m in the process of assimilating information, tweaking beliefs in a way, and coming to a new understanding about things.

Radio Show – Sundays 1 EST. We’ve been absent the last few weeks, Plucky had to work, then I had a foozball party, but we do love doing the show so I’m fairly positive we’ll be back this Sunday November 9th for a li’ll Plucky and WooWoo all up in your ear speakers. Tune in. Give us feedback. We love hearing from you.

Dats it. That’s all I’ve got. Boom. Super quick updates. See you on the flip side.

Saucy Monday

Guyz, Guyz, I have been soo good at updating my blog lately! (Not jinxing it. hopefully).

At any rate I was feeling a little saucy last week and I decided to regale this page with all the fun, not safe for you to look at at work (probably) pictures I found. Some are a li’ll deep, others are just well, saucy.

To keep it a li’ll woo-woo in dis bitch make sure (if this is your thing) to have a listen to Anne Ortelee’s Weakly Weather Report. Also schew BTR’s player. Use the default player button to listen and/or right mouse click on the page, view source info, grab the mp3 address put that in your browser bar and listen away.

To continue on the woo-woo update path I am currently reading Sera Beak’s book Red, Hot, and Holy a Heretic’s Love Story and it is so good. So good. So full of things needed to hear at the right time. I highly recommended it, and I will be giving it a full review when I am finished.

Onto the pictures!

It’s National Novel Writing Month!

So.  It’s NaNoWriMo time.  I’ve never actually finished at NaNo.  I’ve participated lazily a bunch of times, but never crossed the finish line.  The goal this year, is to do that, and doing it by finishing Book 3.

Aren’t you excited?

I know! So ‘citing!

To make it even more fun for you readers, every day I will be updating my word count here, and sharing a piece of what I wrote.  Now, you need to understand a few things.

This snippets might change

These snippets will probably not be in chronological order ( I write like I have ADD random scenes at random points sometimes), and therefore may confuse you.  I’m not telling you what’s going on, whose that, anything I’m just sharing snippets, that’s it.

These snippets are in serious rough draft form.  I mean like, raw, just popped out my brain I have not proof read anything raw. The kind of raw that all the pro’s say you’re not suppose to show anybody, but I say fuck it.  You’ve been warned.

With that said, I banged out 2536 words today.  Mostly while listening to (over and over and over again, yeah I’ll run a song into the ground faster than a radio station)

Enjoy the snippet from Synarchy Book 3

“My name is Elaina Hollis, and this is Dr. William [name].  Who knows what a crop circle is?”

Saraya and Jochlan stood at the back of the lecture hall, watching the pair on stage.  For reasons she couldn’t yet explain her studied the pair with more than a professional interest.  There was something, something about them.

“Just because they correctly deduced what the codes are doesn’t mean we should use them,” Jochlan said to her quietly.  “We could find humans more enlighten-”

“No,” Saraya gently cut him off, shaking her head.  “Them.”

“As you wish, princess*.”

When the lecture was over, Jochlan made his way to the front of the hall where Elaina and Will were shaking hands with some of the participants, answering more questions and handing out their business cards.

Elaina caught Jochlan first. There was something… different about him.  She nudged Will to get his attention.

Jochlan traded glances with the pair.  “Humans-er, Elaina and William?”

William and Elaina looked at each other, curiosity set on both their faces then back at Jochlan. “Just Will will do.  Got a question?”

“Someone wishes to speak with you both.”

“Okay. Who?”

“The person who saved your lives.”

Elaina eyes lit up.  Will looked a little more skeptical but Elaina quickly said, “Take us.  Please.”

Jochlan bowed his head. “This way.”

 

New Cycles!

I listened to Anne Ortelee’s excellent weekly weather report yesterday.  Suggest everybody else does to.  But that’s a side note.  I have peectures! So I share them.  May be all profound and shit for you to spark your creativity or deep thoughts or what have you.
