Is it an Idol?
"There's a thin line between chasing your dreams and being selfish. Have I just crossed the line?"
This story focuses on three extremely different aspiring celebrities who face their own unique struggles as they experience the dark underbelly of the Japanese entertainment industry.
Jae, a young Korean born to a musically inclined family, has been stifled by her parents' overbearing musical preferences, and finally decides to try her hand at breaking into the K-pop industry, only to be brutally rejected. Has she reached a dead end?
Hiro, an underworked actor struggles to find work where he can, and despite his optimistic outlook he can feel the beginnings of regret stirring in his heart. Will he turn his back on the career he once pursued with passion?
Azami, the veteran of the idol industry at the tender age of twelve, feels like the smile that's been plastered on her face day in and day out is wearing out. Is her mask about to crack?
Follow these three as their paths intertwine, pulled by the strings of fate.

There is swearing, though, I should warn you.
I'm writing a story, but it's really more for fun. The idea is that whenever I decide add a new chapter, I make up the plot on the spot, not really caring about whether it makes sense or not.
It's got about 2 chapters as of now.
The Non-Sensical Tale Of The Jackster
This story is told both through the fast paced, typically very sarcastic and frustrating, interview between the highly nervous David and the secretive Death Wish (he can't even get her to give him any kind of real name, for example) and through the stories Death Wish decides to tell about her childhood and how she became who she is.
It's good, I promise. Funny. It's going to get dramatic. I try to post a chapter every day. I really need more comments and support to keep it going!

It's all about a girl with amnesia, which I tried to handle as best I could. It's got a fantasy setting, with some romance and crazy teenagers.

The Necklace -
The necklace is an ancient talisman that only comes to those with great power. It opens their world to one of magic, good and evil and the battle for supremecy. The one who has the necklace is key in the battle between good and evil. But as well as great power, the necklace has one condition. It will only leave the wearer when they are dead. Only then will it seek out a new warrior.

Especially regarding grammar (british style), and suggestions for a better title would be appreciated :)
(see guidance)
It's been filtered by Litopia standards (ugh) and is the new and shiny MkII, which I've posted seperately for the moment - just until people decide which is better.
