I like my newest story, Welcome To My World, Stranger. It's a story people are actually liking, and it's original to me, because I've never written something like it before.
Welcome To My World, Stranger is about a boy called Christopher and his many problems. His parents, his enemies and himself.
Most of his lunch and recess times are spent reading graffiti in bathroom stalls, hiding from the school bully, Arden. How thrilling once Arden is in hospital, his parents stop being so violent (as it seems) and he finds a new friend.
You will be shocked in the result of Arden's hospitalisation, the 'niceness' of his parents and his new friendship.
Christopher is... Oddly normal.
Although my sentences are some what shorter in this story, that is the effect I'm trying to get. If you've ever read any of Paul Jenning's stuff, then you'll know he uses that method, too (in his short-stories).
It was actually inspired by BrokenGameBoy's story: This Town Is Just A Place For You To Drown. Even though This Town Is... is a work in progress, it is already a wonderful story with some funny characters.

I also like the very first story I posted on Mibba: The Unprotected, although I only have 2 subscribers who don't give feedback. At first, I was extremely proud of this story and couldn't wait to get it on Mibba. I was disappointed, though when nobody commented to say the good parts about my writing, and the downfalls.
Feedback is really important for me, because I want to become a better writer; it is a thing I love doing and want to do later in life, too.
I have only written 23 chapters for The Unprotected (some chapters being fairly short), but I haven't written anymore of it since, probably May. I am really disappointed with myself because of it, but I haven't had any enthusiasm to write anymore of it.
The Unprotected is about 2 boys and their journey to Silverkeep; a school where they must learn several skills to fight in the long-awaited war.
There is a prophecy, which begins to become true when Rion and Joban find 2 ancient medallions, both made by Foron, the founder of Silverkeep.
When Foron appears to Rion and Joban one afternoon, the boys are informed of their roles in the war. Unsure at first, they pay a visit to an elderly friend who tells them of the prophecy and persuades them to go.
Once they enter the Foron Forest, they can't go back. They will fight.

:oops: sorry if that was too long.
