moonwalker (Sharon)

I love to read. It's my most abiding pastime. Enthusiasms come and go, but I read more than anything else. I like cats, cows, dogs, fish and bears. I don't like frogs, snakes or mosquitoes. I've been married for 31 years, and I've held the same job for 35 years. Any serious commitment I make tends to be long term. I had a cat for 17 years. We've lived in the same house for 24 years. I'm serious about writing, and now that I've found a writer's site I'm going to stick to my writing.

My favourite Authors:

Stephen King, Dean Koontz, John Saul, Peter Straub, Both Bronte sisters, Mary Higgins Clark, J.K. Rowling, J.R.R. Tolkien, V.C. Andrews. I'm wondering if maybe I was an axe murderer in another lifetime, because I do like those bloodthirsty stories. I don't know why really, because I hate to see anyone get hurt.

• Stories I'm working on: 
• Protagonizer pub.  This one had a grip on me. I kept adding and adding to it. I just couldn't let it go. I've spent so much time on it that the characters seemed like friends.
• Impossible Waters Olius Brightwell started this one, and he has a couple of chapters into it, but he got too busy, and I got interested, so I just ran with it. I'm still adding. I'd be interested in feedback, and/or additions.
• My space in time.  This is one I started on my own. It's listed under Mystery / thriller. It's about a woman whose mind can inhabit other people's bodies in a different time frame. It's going well so far. Feel free to check it out, and add..
• Ordinary People. Listed under Literary. I've just begun adding to this one. It's about the way ordinary relationships intertwine in extraordinary ways
• The Animal Shelter This is a children's short story that I wrote and completed. it's geared to 3 to 5 year olds, to be read at bedtime.
• That vampire story  This is a very fun story that I'm adding to. It's listed in Humour / Satire / Parody. It's about a conceited sexy vampire.
• The Protagonize Personals Another fun site. Listed in Humour
• The Protagonize debate Forum  self explanatory, fun site
• It's just for Pun  having fun with puns
• Ghost cop listed in thriller / supernatural. Solo effort. My first attempt at a novel. It's quite exciting, actually. It's about a murdered cop who comes back to help his son solve his own murder, as well as other crimes along the way. Not really scary, just a little creepy.
• The Night Owl club   A new collaborative story I just started in the Humour category.  It's a list of fun and funny things to do in the middle of the night when everyone else is sleeping.
• The Lost Episodes of the twilight zone. Episode 7X - population 62. We're only allowed one episode, so this was my one shot at the brass ring. It was fun being as weird and eerie as I wanted.
• The Beginning of the Demise of Man  This is a story that Jinndal and I are working on. It's about a post nuclear world, where the few remaining humans are protected by one type of mutant, and threatened by another type of mutant. It's a bit scary, but not gory. Well worth taking a look at.
