"Cory did not exactly like James, but the strange-looking fellow had yet to actually lie to him, give him bad advice or try to steal his car.  So, he was practically a saint next to Cory’s last few therapists."

So, Bluebird (or Blue Wings Silver Strings, which I plan to use as the final title.)   Wordcount as of writing is 9223 following a series of fairly savage cuts, and there are still a few scenes I need to rewrite for continuity.  This story has been an interesting journey and I'm pretty proud that it's still happening ^-^  Literally the ONLY thing that has survived from the story I originally planned is... well... the bluebird.  So what I have left is basically a bunch of stuff I made up as I went along.  This is going pretty well for me, but it's a writing scheme that calls for an awful lot of editing.  If I'm gonna be throwing stuff in freely, I've got to be just as ready to toss them out if they don't fit >.>

The story as it stands revolves around four central characters, three of whom are Lycans of some sort.  And of course blue itself.  Like my last story, I focus on the characters with their various character flaws and past trauma, and try to bring everything to a satisfying conclusion.  Oh, and the world gets saved in there somewhere I guess (and lots of things turn into other things.)  There's a darker tone to this one than the last one, mostly because my characters here have more problems to deal with.  I'm not quite sure but I think I'm at least halfway done at this point.  Maybe.  I am pretty confident that I can finish this though.  Don't know how long it will take but it will happen!  Stay tuned.

By the way, I'm always looking for feedback on my last story >.>b  Need to figure out what worked and what didn't.  You're probably best downloading it either at FA or at the Crimson Flag Forum.  It's call Dragon and Mask and it is about someone who claims to be a dragon on the internet because he actually is a dragon.  So let me know what you think!
