    In The Stillness of the Evening ch. 8

    I haven't been posting around here lately because a) like many others during this time of no U2 news, I've gotten into other bands, b) I have other writing projects to work on, and c) I've had a very busy summer. But I still offer this up for criticism. I'm wondering if I should stop posting...

    On Axis

    This is one chapter long and I wrote it directly after Dancing With The Devil. Its working title was "Pop Tart: Return of the Angel of Holland" which sounds like a bad movie of some sort. The new title doesn't make much sense, but there you go. I'm not sure if this is an official sequel to DWTD...

    So. Here's a new installment. I promise I'll read the new chapters that are posted here soon. Feedback about writing and whatnot is appreciated, but you don't have to give any. Retiring to her hotel room in Turin, Kelly changed into a tank top and sweatpants, sat down on the bed, and...

    I ignore this place a little and fanfic starts springing up. I guess after posting this I'll get to reading it... Not a true story. Kelly woke up next morning in an agitated state. She busied herself making breakfast and carelessly stroking her hair with a brush. Her mind was on anything but...

    In the Stillness of the Evening ch. 5

    I promise, this story is not a "love at first sight" kind of thing. It may seem that way for now, but it hasn't really gotten going yet. The pacing is very weird. I can't think of a creative way to say this never happened so I'll just say it- THIS NEVER HAPPENED. A pair of hands...

    In The Stillness of the Evening ch. 4

    Completely made up stuff I wrote about the Elevation Tour, and Adam. If it was true we would have heard about it. Sorry the chapters are so long- it's all necessary to the story. In the morning, U2 were confronted with a very odd mystery. Someone seemed to have kidnapped their singer...

    In the Stillness of the Evening ch.3

    Okay, I know that a certain event mentioned in this chapter did not happen until the second leg of Elevation was well underway, but I had to make it happen early. For plot reasons. Just bear with it. Anyway, that error alone should make you believe that this is all fiction! On the plane...

    In the Stillness of the Evening ch. 2

    So, I just realized the pacing of this story is unbelievable. The beginning is very fast, and then the plot just kind of drags. Hope whoever's reading this doesn't mind the sudden-ness of it all. This story isn't true- we would have known about it earlier if it was. More details on the...

    In the Stillness of the Evening ch.1

    This is a story I've been working on recently and finally got halfway through, so I thought I'd post it here and see what the general public thinks. Hope you enjoy! Part One: When I Look At The World “So I try to be like you Try to feel it like you do Pull it out, but it’s no use I can’t see...

    Help wanted- inquire within.

    So I have two or three new fic ideas, and the most feasible sounding one of them is going to require a little help in writing. Does anyone want to beta my story? I'm thinking of a U2/The Police crossover, taking place during the Conspiracy of Hope Tour. I need a lot of information and it's hard...

    Dancing With The Devil ch. 46 (last chapter)

    Finally, we're at the end of the road. I've written one bonus chapter after this from Bono's POV, but for the most part I am done with Bono and Marieke. Lina doesn’t know it yet, but I attend U2’s show in Tokyo- the last act of Zoo TV that the world will ever see- on December 10th...

    Dancing With The Devil ch. 45

    This is like a treally short teaser transition chapter leading to the next and final one. I was planning to post the last chapter today, as it is the anniversary of Zoo TV Live From Sydney, but didn't get around to this one. So expect the next one coming in the days that follow today. (And...

    Dancing With The Devil ch. 44

    There are only two more chapters after this. But I'm afraid you won't want to read them, you'll only want to kill me. There was a reason I put those Cure lyrics at the end of the last chapter... This story is a work of fiction and I take full responsibility for it. Bono requests a private taxi...

    Dancing With The Devil ch. 43

    The place where the last few chapters- and Marieke's bass lessons- pay off. Didn't you see this coming? Although there are Marieke Langs in the world- I looked the name up on Facebook- none of them are this one. She and her story are imaginary. The tour destinations Down Under consist of...

    Dancing With The Devil ch. 42

    This is a transitional chapter- it's all leading up to no. 43. I swear, that one chapter will make this whole story worth it. But for now you have to get through this one! Feedback is always welcome. Psst... I actually think I learned how to write angst... it's amazing what depression can do for...

    Dancing With The Devil ch. 41

    I've finished the entire story now, so these chapters might come a little quicker now. I am not giving away the ending! This chapter was where I had writer's block so forgive me if it doesn't flow very well I am up with the sun this morning, but it takes me a while to realize it...

    Dnacing With The Devil ch. 40

    How loooonnng... to sing this sooonnng... Unfortunately, for quite a while after, but it's alright- I've been writing all day and will probably get to the last chapter a week from now. We'll see. None of this ever happened. Especially not the part in France. But it's fun imagining it. Eating...

    Dancing With The Devil ch. 39

    Here's another slice of pure fiction! Enjoy! Sunlight leaks through the blinds into my room. I pull the covers over my head. As I walk downstairs, fully dressed, the first crewmen who spot me call “Happy birthday, Marieke!” I smile blandly and hope they don’t suggest a date. I’m barely into...

    Dancing With The Devil ch. 38

    After battling with the demons of writer's block, I discovered that the pen is mightier than the sword and wrote a victory chapter to celebrate. AKA, thanks for the motivation, readers. :P I hope you enjoy, because my brain is dead from editing this. It is a very exhausted Marieke who’s...

    Dancing With The Devil ch. 37

    You better have filled in the blanks I left in the last chapter pre-tty well. Sorry this one's kinda short. I'm working on it. All I own in this story are Marieke and what I dictate her life to be. The surface beneath my flat body is cold, hard, and very uncomfortable. I open my eyes and...

    Thriving Ivory

    ...are a little known but simply EPIC band. The first time I heard them, it was on a radio station with popular music. The song they played was called Angels On The Moon. I was in DEEP love. :) The lead singer's voice is so unique, and the lyrics of the song were kind of moving: Don't tell...

    Dancing With The Devil ch. 36

    And here's where things get weird. This story is a work of fiction and any resemblance to real people, places, or things is entirely coincidental. :shifty: The Zoo train marches on, passing Leeds and moving on into Cardiff. U2 performs Babyface at Leeds for their third time, but leave...

    Dancing With The Devil ch. 35.

    My time among you is almost at an end. The glory that is BlueSilkenSky must disapear and take her place with all her family members in Boston. Don't fear- for I won't be watching you, but I leave behind a chapter for all of you. (Translation- I'm going on vacation and wanted to post a short one...
