2200 Blues Chapter 43 (Early Draft)

Upon leaving the roars and hissings of the water, Father Hawk was assailed by the raucous howlings of wolves. They growled, grated, barked and haunted the world with their eerie, high pitched cackling howlings. It was a sea of unrelenting, booming cries for death, ringing in booming blood curling tones.  Father Hawk was still engulfedContinue reading “2200 Blues Chapter 43 (Early Draft)”

2200 Blues Chapter 42 (Early Draft)

Tears seeped from Father Hawk’s stinging eyes, befuddling his vision  as they splayed out, merging into the volumes of the Shadowlake. The sight of Mother Hawk’s burning grew blurrier and distant.  It was then at the welling of further anguished tears, trembling at the brink of the wavering scene of Mother Hawk that Father HawkContinue reading “2200 Blues Chapter 42 (Early Draft)”

ATLANTIC TRIBE/THRAÍHA TRIBE LANGUAGE

This week, what I have for you is not a chapter, but my progress on a fictional language for the fictional culture of hawk worshippers in 2200 Blues. I apologize for the delay in publication.

MONDAY CONTENT: 2200 Blues Chapter 41 (Early Draft)

The planet’s hemisphere darkened, roiling with gaseous elements. The light of the sun washed over, illuminating shards— debris floating haphazardly around the ball. They looked like broken asteroids swimming in the cosmic space.  One shard rolled around in the light and its jagged patterns of light-colored stripes against the dark background were highlighted by theContinue reading “MONDAY CONTENT: 2200 Blues Chapter 41 (Early Draft)”

MONDAY CONTENT: 2200 Blues Chapter 40 (Early Draft)

The voice of Mother Hawk emanated from the deep below. It came in a ghostly pained and shrill moaning that wavered and rose up in high-pitched waves of anguish over and over again.  It was all that Father Hawk could register in the darkness. He could see nothing.  Then it hit him. The weight ofContinue reading “MONDAY CONTENT: 2200 Blues Chapter 40 (Early Draft)”

MONDAY CONTENT: 2200 Blues Chapter 39 (Early Draft)

Father Hawk nearly jumped when he noticed the twelfth shadowsnake. It was a speedy creature that tore through the water, practically galloping. It drove itself down and below the lake, arching its back before diving in. Then, it would almost immediately thrust itself back up the water, moving through the air in an arc, beforeContinue reading “MONDAY CONTENT: 2200 Blues Chapter 39 (Early Draft)”

RECAP: Blade Runner 2049 and Cyberpunk

MONDAY CONTENT: 2200 Blues Chapter 38 (Early Draft)

Father Hawk finally had a place to eat and rest. A place he could sleep in every night without having to change it as he was constantly on the move. It would have been more relaxing, except for the fact that Father Hawk went to sleep in his cot completely exhausted.  Sleep was his onlyContinue reading “MONDAY CONTENT: 2200 Blues Chapter 38 (Early Draft)”
