Posted My First Story - Fracture

I absolutely loved the Saints Row series of game. Saints Row 2 so enthralled me that I joined the official forums where I stumbled upon the Stilwater Stories, a collection of short stories written by fans of the games. One of the stories there by Lossefalme really motivated me to take a stab at writing my own story.

As a software architect, I have written my fair share of technical documents. They are typically dry and to the point, which is pretty much about as opposite as you can get from writing a story for a reader's enjoyment. Needless to say, I'm not great at it, but I'm getting better, and Lossafalme has been kind enough to review my work and help me with both the story telling aspect as well as the multitude of grammatical errors.

If you take the time to read my writing, please keep in mind that English was my worst subject in high school / college, this is my first writing, and I'm still learning the tools of the trade as well as how to paint a picture in the reader's mind. With that said, whether good or bad, please feel free to leave your thoughts on the story either here or at the FanFiction site.

Fracture - Based in the world of the Saints Row game, Fracture is Book One of The Don's Embrace trilogy. Fracture is a Stilwater Story centered around the main character Atom, leader and care keeper of his family, the Saints.
