This is actually an exerpt from a book I began to write, but never finished.  I was about sixteen, I believe when I started to pen it.

 

As he walked toward me in the dark woods lush with trees, his dusky hair blew wildly in the powerful wind.  Its as if every force of nature were following behind him at his very command.  His bright green eyes shone brightly in the dark in an unearthly manner that was almost superhuman.  His eyes took on a glow of no man I've ever seen.  He was indeed a beautiful creature.

It is fun to look back on older creations, isn't it?
amy r. Oct 14, 2009, 8:53pm EDT
Its just like pulling out old pictures.
vivi emerson Oct 15, 2009, 11:25am EDT
True. I draw and paint and when I go back to look at old things it is just like a sense memory...I am immediately back right there!

Wow!
This is really great. Will you ever finish it, you think?
amy r. Oct 14, 2009, 8:52pm EDT
I hope so.

Charming that you actually saved this and now it reads as an alluring unfinished work! Sweet!
amy r. Oct 14, 2009, 8:52pm EDT

Looks like a great start to a good book.
amy r. Oct 14, 2009, 11:22pm EDT
I had it on my other computer and have since lost the original pages. That computer is dead and gone and I would have to start all over again, although, it was pretty much Twilight, before it was written, not many places you can go with teenage vampires lol.

Very cool, Amy! I want to know more about this guy. Thanks for posting to All About Autumn
amy r. Oct 15, 2009, 1:42am EDT
He's a very complex character. He's sort of mean to everyone even the main girl in the story that he falls in love with. He's very serious and just reeks of eros lol!

i also agree that you should continue the rest of this. it was very intriguing! thanks
amy r. Oct 15, 2009, 1:20pm EDT
I really should. I would have to start from scratch just from memory. It was very graphic, shall I say for a teen girl's vocabulary. So, I guess it was a teen writing an adult book.
Ed Da Head Toker Oct 15, 2009, 9:32pm EDT
Except for the dusky hair, I would have thought that was me that you were talking about. lol.
amy r. Oct 15, 2009, 9:48pm EDT
Where are you located again haha?
Ed Da Head Toker Oct 16, 2009, 3:10am EDT
Marijuana ville, in GanjaLand. Home of the stoned,and the brave.
