Sonnet 3

Sonnet 3 Tell me your problems, O night shrouded one, For I have seen the sorrow in your eyes, The darkness where once was shining the sun, That glorious beauty underneath this guise. Your tear streaked face does not affect just you, For when in sadness you cannot but dwell, I feel emotions deep within me too, An emptiness and grief I share as well. When in the sea of anguish you must drown, I feel by duty bound to aid your soul, So to reverse that melancholy frown, I would move stars and moons to make you whole. For though your beauty never fades in tears, Yo

The third sonnet of the series.

NaNoWriMo - Chapter ThreeIt had been three weeks since the death of Nick Cooper's wife, Angela in the south of Britain. And at a completely opposing end of the country, untold havoc was being unleashed.
Sue Fletcher walked briskly through the deserted streets of Liverpool, where there was not a sign of any life around. She knew that this was all misleading though, as Liverpool seemed to be as bustling as it ever was. But just a bit more... subdued. Yes, that was the word. Subdued. The clip-clop of her shoes echoed off of the walls of the city centre, and walking past the cover of a building, she put her hand at her forehead to stop the sun from blinding NaNoWriMo - Chapter Three

NaNoWriMo - Chapter 2Chapter Two
The quietness. Oh, how it screamed to Nick Cooper! The whirling wind of nothing, the tempest of absence that seemed to surround him, laying there in a pool of tears. He could taste their saltiness and feel their warmth, and yet, he had forgotten why they had been shed. His mind had stopped working; his soul had gone numb as he desperately tried to beg God for his wife's life back. That was strange as well, because God didn't exist. And yet, Nick still found himself laying there, wherever 'there' was, praying to this nonexistent God for his beloved to return: to return to the loving embraces of him, his children.

NaNoWriMo - Chapter 1Nick Cooper stood in his house, looking out of the large patio windows that gave him an almost unbroken view down to the sea. He lived in Cornwall, strictly because of business, he had told his wife. That wasn't strictly true though. Ever since he was a child, Nick had come down to Cornwall on holiday in the summer, and spent two joyous weeks on the county's beaches. And since then, he had always been vying to move down there permanently, and find a job.
Nick was a teacher, and a good one at that. He had been nominated for numerous awards, and even won once upon a time. He taught at secondary schools up and down the country befor NaNoWriMo - Chapter 1

NaNoWriMo - Chapter 0It had been two weeks since the whole fiasco at the UN, and there were reports of a flu epidemic all over the country, and indeed the world. It had been estimated that around half of the world was suffering from sneezing and coughing, and the half who were healthy would come down with it within the month.
John Attingley was sitting at his desk in Downing Street, looking over the reports handed to him by the Secretary of State for Health. The British weren't doing too badly in the whole scheme of things – a less than average amount of people had caught the superflu. But Attingley knew it was only a matter of time before every NaNoWriMo - Chapter 0

Nova Roma - Please join!

Journal Entry: Sun Nov 22, 2009, 6:38 AM

Watch me Note me Journal Instructions

Yeah, well, I kinda abandoned NaNo, because I fell bloody ill, and went three days behind (I can’t write on paper for toffee). So instead, I’m focussing all of my efforts into my forum, which DESPERATELY NEEDS MEMBERS! I should point out that I'm going to continue to write my NaNo novel, it just won't be complete before Dec 1.

NOVA ROMA is basically a cool forum where we try and get along while all the while developing an internet democracy and RPing in the style of a clan of modern Romans. If you want to, you can learn the language although you don’t have to, but learning it does mean that you can become higher up in the hierarchy of moderators and admins.

The mods and admins are all completely elected, except for me as root admin, of course, and it runs on a system of a Senate and High Senate, where ideas are passed through the two sets of lawmakers – the Senators and the High Court. Finally, I give my assent as like... Lord Overseer, and any law or new rule thus passed gets added to either the forumwide rules, or the RP specific laws.

The thing is, we only have three members at the moment, and it would be really cool if we could have a load more active members to get us going. When we have a good number (30 or 40 say), I will organise the first elections for the Senate. Besides the fact that it will be cool to RP, it’s just a discussion forum for anything you want to chat about. So I beg of you, please give it a go, join up 
