Scope.

Pioneering scientist in his lab, he is ready to test his newly designed mega powerful microscope. He is going to view things never seen by any eye before.

Zoom in to a cell

Zoom in to DNA

Zoom in to atom

Zoom in to quark

Zoom in to strange sphere

Zoom in to a galaxy shape

Zoom in to a solar system

Zoom in to a planet

Zoom in to a building with skylight

Zoom in to the back of his own head looking in the microscope. He waves his hand and can see it through the microscope.

*I was going to add zoom in to cell at the end

Read and Write a Book.

1 CHAPTER

I was starting to read a book and the first line said "I was starting to read a book and the first line said". Now this really puzzled me and I'm sure it will puzzle you, but then eht txen enil saw nettirw sdrawkcab then I realised the next line was written backwards did you.

Anyway just after the line "Anyway just after the line" I was thinking to myself "this is weird" but that was what was written in the book. Dot, now the book asks me to look at the dot after the line "I was thinking to myself "this is weird" but that was what was written in the book" now I'm cracking up.

I'm glad the full stop was omitted from the repeated line about the book. So I'm only perplexed by the two dots after the first book statement, at this point the book I was reading said, "I hope you're not lost" so I hope you're not lost.

This is the best bit it says "you've just read something that doesn't make sense or does it?" then the book gives an early warning that it is going to abruptly end by saying "then the book gives an early warning that it is going to………"


The end.

Prologue

I wrote this book about a guy who wrote a book about a book you are going to write about this book.

*just word play that almost makes sense or doesn't it?

Masks

Tied to a Chair.

A bellboy enters a hotel room to find its occupant guest tied to a chair. The bellboy hurriedly unties the guest who remains calm and silent throughout. The bellboy repeatedly asks the guest if he is ok and what happened. The guest ignores the bellboy and slowly, purposely and silently walks towards a bedside table completely ignoring the shocked bellboy.

The guest opens the drawer and produces a gun and points it straight at the bellboy. The guest makes gestures to the bellboy indicating that he wants him to sit on the chair. The bellboy complies and nervously sits on the chair. The guest then ties the bellboy to the chair, takes his wallet and any other stuff on his person.

The bellboy is shaking with fear on the chair. The guest puts the gun to the bellboy’s head, leans over and whispers something in his ear. This takes about 3 minutes. The guest walks to the bedside table once more and returns the gun to where he got it and calmly leaves the room leaving the bellboy tied to the chair.

Some time passes ……………..

A cleaner enters the hotel room to find a bellboy tied to a chair. The cleaner hurriedly unties the bellboy who remains calm and silent throughout. The cleaner repeatedly asks the bellboy if he is ok and what happened.

The bellboy opens the drawer and produces a gun and points it straight at the cleaner. The bellboy makes gestures to the cleaner indicating that he wants her to sit on the chair. The cleaner complies and nervously sits on the chair. The bellboy then ties the cleaner to the chair, takes her purse and any other stuff on her person.

The cleaner is shaking with fear on the chair. The bellboy puts the gun to the cleaner’s head, leans over and whispers something in her ear. This takes about 3 minutes.

The hotel manager enters the hotel room…………….

*How can this end
*What has been said to make them tie the person who frees them to the chair and what does the person that's been freed say to them.
*A friend speculated that there was a guy in a wardrobe with a gun trained on the person in the chair and this is what is whispered.
*That's nice guess but not the answer.

Grandpa Hector sits at the dining room table with his grandson little Fraser, eating their fish suppers, grandpa tell’s little Fraser about the creatures that roamed the earth a million years ago “They became extinct, which meant that our species flourished, came out of the sea and evolved into our current state”. Little Fraser asks his grandpa what the creatures were called and how they became extinct. Grandpa pulls out his handkerchief and blows his blow-hole and tells his grandson, “They used to be the smartest animals on land, they were called humans and they eventually destroyed themselves through war and greed” Fraser shrills “MORONS” and they both jump into the sea and go for a 5 mile swim.

*Hector and Fraser are 2 of the dolphin genus.
*They eat fish
*Blowholes and shrills
*The reader is suppose to assume a human grandpa is telling his human grandson about the dinosaurs.

Writing Wrongly

I will post little writing experiments past and present over the coming months. I will give a little bit of info about each, to save the 'What the hell is he going on about' reactions. I will also post random quotes I've dabbled with.

I have an obsession with loops, structure patterns, symmetry, unusual protagonist/antagonist development, slight of hand, time, twists, repeat patterns, un-filmable stories and no rules. I try to utilise these obsessions in my writing.

I also do serious script writing using a lot of these devices in a more conventional manner.
