Hello all. I wanted to share with you the first part of something I had been working on. I had the idea shortyly after Alien 3 and although the subsequent films made it moot, working in the media, I never did forget the story so I was asked to write up the segments and I am doing so now. So, essecntally everything from Alien 3 onward we will pretend did not happen. [url]http://sknr.net/2012/04/01/alien-the-return-of-ripley/[/url]

poetically written IMO, and cerebral and leaves one wanting to know more right away, while reading each passage, wanting to hurry along and fill up each perceived hole without allowing you to at your own pace...very nice....to able to do that...that's good writing IMO.

Thank you, I have to watch as my style of writing is to get it all out and then edit it after and at times I get so into what I am doing I post the working and not final draft. My wife does most of our site and magazine editing and she has not had a look at this I am saving the final draft for her. It is odd as this story has not left my thoughts ever since I had it pop in one dull day in English class in 93 so I made it a point that I would finish writing it all down now and since I have Dragon, it helps to get it out faster. I will likely have the next couple of parts done soon. The transition will likely need some polish as I have it as the opening, then the nice finale act, I know the who, what, and where of everything and everyone but need the exposition and such. I also have been more focused on the story rather than the dilogue between the characters. I figure that will come after I get the story out. There is a bit of a hook at the end that may seem a bit silly or odd at first but I believe it will explain the Alien 3 stuff and blend into the new stuff well. I am trying to get it done around my media work, but I think I can get a segment done each week, so will aim for the next part tomorrow and hopefully can post it later tomorrow or next week.
