Finally got around to writing today. (Thursday is always super busy for me!)

My protagonist is Victor Herman. Age 50. "Only the most powerful food critic in this state. A review from him is like a review from God."

G - To find out why the Stepford Burger doesn't taste like beef, or why the fries "don't taste like fries. They don't even taste like potatoes."

O - Mr. Stepford refuses to reveal his secret recipe, just like you'd have to pry the Krabby Patty secret formula from Mr. Krabs's cold, dead claws. (And even then, good luck.) "Oh, it's... meat."

T - Keep asking until "Is it beef, ham, pork, chicken, turkey? Human?" (Chortle) causes Mr. Stepford to tense up. He then takes Victor to the back room to talk privately. "You know too much."

E - Victor's expectation was simply to review Stepford's Burgers, good or bad. "McDonald's is cheaper. And I'm a food critic!"

Hmmm
    Okay, my protag is Fred.  He's a cop.  As a child, he accidentally imprisoned a monster.  

He chose to be a cop to protect people.  From monsters, but, not actual monsters.

His goals are to keep as many safe, as he can, at all times.

His obstacle is really just 1 thing.  The monster he accidentally locked up as a kid.  He has no idea how he did it.  

Tactic-  figure out what it is, and to kill it this time.

The expectation is to win, or die.  Or is death the worst???  I wrote a story a while back where death wasn't the worst thing that could happen.

Please read my scripts:
http://www.simplyscripts.net/cgi-bin/Blah/Blah.pl?b-series/m-1427564706/

I'm interested in reading animation, horror, sci fy, suspense, fantasy, and anything that is good.  I enjoy writing the same.  Looking to team with anyone!

Thanks
Dan

My protag is Patrick Bateman and the events will take place shortly after the heat revolving around the Paul Allen murder died down. He's moved past the seemingly random acts of killing, and now has a more insatiable taste - human meat. He's admitted to "trying a little" of his previous victims, but now that he's kept Allen's body in a freezer in his apartment, he's decided that since he's always getting confused for Allen anyway, he may as well consume the entirety of him.

A mother. I think that is my protagonist. A mother with a autistic daughter who believes a monster will be coming for her because she is 'different'.
