A couple days back, I wrote some small snippets of concepts that were on my mind before going to bed. Then the idea came to me, and I decided to start up a blog dedicated to these little snippets.
They're pretty all-over the place in tone, genre, what have you, and I certainly don't shy away from hinting at ( or pretty much all but saying ) some dark subjects. So, I'd definitely advise caution if you've gone through traumatizing times - while as of writing there's not much there, I could still end up writing something that won't be comfortable for you.
I'm trying to keep the queue filled up so that there's a new snippet daily, and so far they've all been posted at around 11am UTC. I'd certainly appreciate it if you guys took a look, and if you like what you see and have a tumblr, follow.

Re: all.hope - my short writing blog
Well I appreciated those. :3 Might want to double check the grammar, otherwise those were pretty fun. I do find the "'twists" you put at the end of those to be quite humorous. I liked the courtroom one quite a bit.
To be honest I was kinda afraid when I read the first paragraph, thinking it was going to be moody musings of a directionless young person. Because I wrote quite a bit of that in my earlier years.
Do you just write short jokes or working on something else?

uhhhhhhhhh that's one dark sense of humor you have thereZummorr wrote:Do you just write short jokes or working on something else?
Otherwise, this is pretty much all I regularly write. I do work best in short ( well, relatively - considering projects can take months or even years, anywhere from some hours to days is pretty short ) bursts of inspiration and tend to burn out really quick, so it's difficult for me to take on more meaty projects and actually see them to completion.
I do, however, have longer works on my main blog, although they're hardly the focus of it and I only really come up with new stuff once in a blue moon. The two below the link to this blog are probably the two most worth looking at - one of them is really self-explanatory by title alone, and the other is probably my best thing with any sort of serious tone.

Well obviously not all of them are meant to be funny. But mean come on, a vampire biting into a tree? The void speaking out 'oh dear you've had quite a bit a trouble would like a spot of tea?' And who hasn't felt the need to egg their sibling's things?
Not all of them are jokes, but those ones were stronger to me.
