Literature

For the record

For the record, everyone dies at the end. Oh, don’t look so surprised. To say that Becky argues with her mum is like saying that Hitler had a grudge against the Jews. So when Becky gets her L’s, tensions run high. Needless to say, the comments flying weren’t always about her steering. Jake needed his P’s. He just did. He’s got a job out of town and if he didn’t get them, he would be out of a job faster than you can say transport. Which is pretty fast considering it’s been on his mind the past few months. Dave is the only one of his friends who doesn’t drink, so it’s only fair he’s the fir

Sticky Blood by Built-on-the-horizon, literature

Literature

Sticky Blood

I never did give blood. I mean, that massive trailer came to my school that one time, people walked around like idiots with red teardrop stickers. But I’d skipped lunch, and I didn’t bring a drink bottle that day, and I heard you had to drink something insane otherwise you’d faint real fast. Haha, yeah. I get the pun. After that, the excuses just kept stacking up. I’ve got this thing about needles. I have the most common type, they don’t need me. Skin is meant to hold the blood inside you. Yeah, skin is. Too bad it breaks really easily. So, no. I never gave that half a litre. There’s blood on the seats,

Blame it on the maths by Built-on-the-horizon, literature

Blame it on the maths

Jordan blames it on maths. She also blames it on half an hour of listening to 96 pens scratching and pages turning at the end of the exam, but mostly on maths. Because maths is the single most boring topic in the whole world and she’s had to sit through an hour and a half of the damn subject before another half hour of brain numbing boredom. So yeah, she blames it on maths. She’s sitting in the maths exam, trying to catch eyes with one of her friends to send them an exasperated look, when this fully formed plot and characters wanders into her head and sits down like it’s some well trained puppy. But, of course, maths, being

The Road less... what?

The Road less… What? I’ve been staring at the page for half an hour. I took the road less travelled by I took a road less travelled by too, you don’t see me bragging about it. Granted, the road was Extension English which brought me here in the first place, but the premise is the same. So suck that. The best thing that three Unit English has given me is the ability to insult people using very refined language. You Devil incarnate, most shallow man, tedious fool, you, dear friend, are a blinking idiot! What? It’s Shakespeare. I know I am drunk, but in the morning I shall be sober and you will still be ugly. The gre

Tiny Life by Built-on-the-horizon, literature

Tiny Life

Tiny life Everything on an aeroplane is tiny. Little tiny tray there, tiny seats, tiny food, tiny utensils, tiny bathroom, tiny legroom, tiny personal space. “There’s just a small problem, going to be a short delay, we’ll be just a little late” So I’m crammed in this tiny chair in a tiny cabin that smells like it’s got just a tiny bit of mould. The hostesses come out. They do their little routine, acting out what the captain’s saying over the intercom. They show you how to use a seatbelt, you know, in case you haven’t been in a car since 1962. Taxi out, seatbelt light, that mocking no-smoking ligh

Rule of Flying by Built-on-the-horizon, literature

Literature

Rule of Flying

They’ve been taking on lots more passengers these days, there’s less money in it, but a steady supply of work coming in. Everyone wants to get off whatever God forsaken rock they were born to and land on one equally as ruined. Right now they’re testing a new strategy, worked out a chain of planets to be their route, and just taking her slow between them, don’t want to work her too hard, you know? The stream of passengers rotates, but there always seems to be an overlap between the new batches. Rumours are beginning to spread through the passengers, getting wilder with every stop and changeover. Rumours that this old boa

Apparently, I must. by Built-on-the-horizon, literature

Literature

Apparently, I must.

I’m a girl, so I must obsess about shoes. I’m a Christian, so I must wear socks with my sandals. I’m a writer, so I must be a recluse. I don’t use MySpace, so I must have no friends. I go to a Christian school, so I must be arrogant. I’m a virgin, so I must be prude. I’m short, so I must have a lot of attitude. I’m a teenager, so I must be a rebel. I have braces, so I must be a nerd. I can work a computer, so I must be a geek. I do drama, so I must be an attention seeker. I don’t drink, so I mustn't know how to have fun. I’m human, so I must have a stereotype!

Literature

The Days Don't End Here

‘Show me.’ ‘Come on, Mickey. You’ll see it eventually.’ ‘Exactly. I’d rather see it now than in the middle of a fire fight when I need to keep my head.’ ‘Fine.’ A flash of steel in the UV lights of a Torchwood office, a slice through flesh and Mickey’s worried gasp. ‘Rose.’ ‘I know.’ ‘… Well this changes things.’ * * * The day after Bad Wolf Bay, Rose starts up a journal. It’s leather and thick with notes and newspaper clippings and drawings and translations. She tucks photos into the front, with nothing but a wish and a prayer and the worn

To everyone who understands these references: Motorbike, Donovan, Girls, Twins and Banshee. Please check out my favourites. I just added one called Street Light. This is sort of the image I was going with for my possible book cover, although, perhaps a little bit more directly down the street, less of an angle. Somewhere at the base of one of the streetlights, maybe the second one, a sillohetted Black Dog. Maybe in Dog form, maybe in human. What do you think?

Dear P1PP1N: I don't really know how to tell you this, but our romance is over. I think I realized it when I threw up at the mental hospital and I saw you carve your initial into my penpal in Ghana. I'm sure you're frostbitten enough to understand that I get turned on by garbage men. I'm returning your memories from the military service to you, but I'll keep your collection of butterflies as a memory. You should also know that I was interviewed by the Times about the apartment building. Fuck off now, Horizon
