Animorphs: The One

by D.H. L'Orange

The One, an ancient evil that feeds upon a creature's soul. The Yeerk, a parasitic race that steals the body. When the Yeerks form an alliance with the One, the consequences are alarming: Controllers without hosts. Will this new partnership doom Earth?

8. a lame excuse

hey guys!

I just wanted to give ya'll a quick update, so that ya'll don't think I've disappeared or something!

This chapter is giving me alotta problems writing! I wouldn't call it writer's block, more like writer's indecision

short version: I'll get it up as soon as it seems good.

long version: I know what I wanna write, its just writing it that's the problem. First I couldn't think of which perspective to write from. It took me 4 different outlines before I found the right perspective. Then, after writing some of it, I realized that it was too "magical." Everything that happened in the chapter seemed like a crappy episode of Charmed.

So then I tried to make it sound more sci-fi like. I researched stuff. (don't get too impressed, I just re-read through my old Physics notes). So then I wrote it with lots of technical background, only after I finished, it was so dry, I thought I was reading a lab manual! So now I'm in the process of re-writing. AGAIN.

so yeah, I'm trying really hard to get it up and working.

So as to when that'll happen is anyone's guessbut I'm hoping that oughta be soon.

sorry.

but thanks again to all of ya'll who are reading! I really appreciate it!
