RE: My Vacation On the Exotic Shores of a Black Hole - Part 6

in #writing7 years ago

Oooh I know! It IS a tentacle monster and that was just a cunning ruse to throw us off!

I really enjoyed this! Going to have to revisit the earlier chapters now when I have some time, but I was able to dive right in and you hooked me immediately. I personally love it when space / sci-fi fiction/movies have a bit of that real life, dingy, broken down feel to them - it is what makes the first Alien movie my favorite still to this day. Everything is too clean and sparkling now that we have CGI to build our spaceships instead of physical sets and models - you managed to capture that feeling of actual real life, just in an alien environment. I hadn't encountered this side of you yet, keep up the writing!

Thanks! I'm glad you liked it.

I've always kinda liked the "dingy" feel of certain sci-fi. There are of course things that will likely be done for you, making things easier, but humans have never been prim and proper. Well, for the most part anyway. Even if the ship I put the character on had clean white walls that bots cleaned every day, he'd still be human, so he'd trip over the bots, cuss at them, and then go about his day.
