Blog is here!

Hello, world! My name is Katie Hamilton. As the title of this blog implies, I am a fiction writer. This blog will contain snippets of stories that I've written, synopses of work-in-progress novels, and the occasional poem or personal narrative.

If you're looking for my Sims 3 stories, please go to my new Simming blog: <link will be posted soon!>  Otherwise, look out for future non-Sims writing projects. I'm not the type to mix my Sims stories with totally original ones. ;)

Here's some announcements of my current and future projects:


GIFTED: Gifted is my first ever full length novel. And it will be BIG. While I don't want to give away too much of the plot, I can sum it up: 

"In the seven years of her life that were not lost to amnesia, Amaranth Meadowlark has never set foot outside her mother's farm. But when a shocking incident turns her life upside down, she must leave the farm and embark on a journey encompassing several nations. Accompanied by her egotistical, baseball loving best friend, she must accomplish her goals and find her unknown sister if she is to recover the memories that were stolen from her. But a dangerous enemy stalks them at every turn, hell-bent on capturing her. For within her lies a power that can destroy the world..."

Vague, I know. But I promise, all will be revealed once I publish Gifted.



FAIRYTALE REDUXES: The beloved stories we all knew as children, turned into a series set in the modern era. First in the line is WONDERLAND. As the name implies, it will be a modern retelling of Alice in Wonderland... with a teenage boy named Ellis in the role of Alice. I'll let the synopsis do the talking:

"Conspiracies, romance, and rebellion against dictatorships abound as 17 year old Ellis Liddel is caught up in a battle with the evil and cold hearted Red Tyrant (gender pending)."

And no, it doesn't say "gender still pending" because I can't decide on a gender for the Red Tyrant. It is ambiguously sexed throughout the entire story. 

With that, I gotta run. But I'll post more about future projects later!

Cheers,
