Creative Writing
Does anyone in here enjoy creative writing? I took a class my senior year (2002), but have always enjoyed it. Have written a few short stories I guess you'd call them. I am currently working on a zombie apocalypse book that has been a blast to write.

EDIT: Feel free to post short stories and teasers or samples in a spoiler tag for constructive criticisms and to share!

Re: Creative Writing
I enjoy it, but never really have much time for it.

I started writing a mystery novel in college years ago, but never finished it.

Yes, I am writing a mafia story that takes place in 1950's New York that places a father against his son. The father is a mafia boss, and the son is an NYPD cop who was sent to the police force by his father in order to help the family from the inside. Certain things happen, and whats on the inside of "Tommy", the main character and son, may be different than what the father expects.

Im 20,000 words in, and really haven't scratched the surface with it. I try to write 1500 words per sitting, but with my job, a newborn,etc it gets hard to really sit down and write, but I intend on finishing it.

I'll do that.

I used to have an idea for a Mafia book where a son joined and in his first task from the mafia boss is to kill his father. Obviously he wouldn't do it, then he'd have to battle the mafia
