This group is for writers and readers.

Here are the new rules:

1. If you are writing or have written stories you want to share with the VicsLab.com community, you can add your stories to this group, but we ask that you also leave feedback on another member’s story.

2. If you don’t have any stories of your own and just want to read stories, the authors would appreciate it if you leave feedback.

Anyone can join the conversation. Members also can create and comment via forum topics to discuss certain aspects of the stories, such as characters, plot, theme, style, and setting.

If you already have a story on your profile page under your “Stories” tab, you can add that story to the group by selecting the document and then selecting “associated groups.” There you can select this group so it can be seen here. Please select “logged-in users” for your story’s privacy settings if you don’t want non-members to view it. Also, please select “Doc author only” under editing privileges if you don’t want others to edit your work (i.e., make changes to your story).

Midnight Fury

Here are the prologue and first two chapters of a little pet-project of mine. It is inspired by my love for Golden Age superhero comics, quantum physics, and my desire to create a college campus heroine. It was pitched to a female-gaze manga and light novel-inspired magazine but was rejected. Keeping that in mind, I realize that this entire story might only be suitable for a very specific audience. However, it would be a shame for something I'm quite proud of to remain unseen by others. So I give you...

MIDNIGHT FURY

In the year 2018, a war, which was also a god, ended–or was killed. As a result, people across the planet Earth gained what could only be described as "superpowers." For nearly a century, these "Wielders" have lived in secret. Until now.

Samieh Darvish lives a double life at Vienna College. By day, she quietly attends lessons and faces the social anxieties of a girl out of her element. By night, she takes on college town crime as Midnight Fury, champion of the oppressed. A graduate of the Wielders' College, she lives with her roommate and fellow Wielder Evette Kingstone, who disapproves of her nightly escapades. But when a danger emerges, so great that it threatens to destroy their city, the two will need to put aside their differences and unite against the power of Imaginary Man.
