Maybe one of my primary skills is to pattern (or talking big?), I think that is a good skill for an old pirate like me. You know, the looting ships business is more for younger lads, telling the tales is more appropriate for riper dudes. Unfortunately I am not a native english speaker. A few days ago I started to renovate me a chest (or a locker) to use it at future pirate encampments. While I was thinking how to alter an old wooden locker to my new needs I started to spin a backstory of this locker, how I got it, who the prepossessor was etc. And suddenly a muse was kind enough to me to make up a really nice story (at least I believe so). Now I would need a little hel…

"It was a Man-O’-War with 102 broadside cannons, light steel armor plating, eight bow cannons as well as eight stern ones, a set of swivel guns, a set of prototype black-powder mortars, and a three-headed naval ram. Its body was painted crimson and its sails were black. The figurehead was a nude maiden’s upper half with intestines drooling out her bottom, and the Ship was called “The Devil’s Whore”. The ship wasn’t like any normal Man O’ War, because the ship’s hull was slightly slimmer and sleeker than other Man O’ Wars, making it faster almost like it had the hull of a Frigate." -One of Sister Hawk's introductory paragraphs, describing the vessel As ye can read from t…

THE FIRES OF LOVE AND INTRIGUE Maribel had told Carmen the story of her family in exchange of Carmen’s story, and how her brother Chema got to be sold to a smuggler who brought him somewhere to the Spanish Main. Maribel had promised her to read her the cards for the King of clubs Jose Maria, in her room, in deep secret. ”Why are you keeping it secret?” Carmen asked, naively. ”Because some people are afraid of what they don’t understand. Exactly how it was with your accusation, in the first day, that I poisoned you, when in truth you simply weren’t accustomed to the taste of the spiced coffee with cardamom. But what if people believed you and thought that I use poison…

INHERITING A MISSION John Henry Davis was a man in his early sixties. If he had been younger, he would have been serving in the war, on any of His Majesty’s Ships deployed in the European seas, in the Atlantic or in the Pacific, as he was a reputed sailing master. The wars were never ending, requiring new blood aboard the ships, and he had done his share. Now, he was teaching at the Royal Naval Academy. Better than staying at home and longing for the sea. Unfortunately, his late wife had given him only daughters, to raise a dowry for and to marry them well. Once this was done – and he had found for all three of them landlubbers, so that they wouldn’t know what loneline…

I haven't gotten much feedback on this elsewhere, but now that I'm back here, this seems like the perfect place for it. He awoke, bleary eyed, to the sound of the ships bell ringing. Lying in his hammock, his eyes focused upon the wood planking above him. "Welcome to the waking world, Jack." To his right, his friend Colton was sitting on his sea chest, slipping on his boots. His boarding axe was sitting next to him. "Not exactly nice to be here." he replied groggily. Colton laughed a bit, "Too much rum last night?" "No such thing" he insisted, as a faint smile flashed across his face. "You've picked a fine day to sleep late!" Martin said, chastising Jack as he appr…

Ahoy, fellow Pirates, privateers and buccaneers (or dreamers, like me!). I have been lurking around this forum for quite some time now, and have finally got the courage to join as a member, and to begin posting. For a few years, I have been working on a novel based loosely on what we know of Anne Bonny. No title yet, it will come in time. In the mean time, I would like to humbly offer my prologue and my first chapter for dissection, opinion and advice to you all. I know I need to work on period language, clothing etc, and I will. Please kindly enjoy, and let me know what you think. Warmest regards to you all, Jacqui. ---- PROLOUGE The waves grew around her, cras…

I wrote this short story for my mother, a teacher of mathematics, who asked me to write a ghost story about numbers. I did - but of course, I couldn't resist including pirates in it too.

Do you remember those "Choose your own adventure books"? You would read a story and then get a choice of what happens next. I got something similar you might enjoy. http://www.facebook.com/pages/Jibs-Tales-of-Adventure-Exploration-and-Debauchery/212579662151879

We all fancy our Characters as being 'one of the best' and so in the era, ballads would be written about legends, like the 'Ballad of Captain Ward' 'The Ballad of Captain Kidd', and Blackbeard's Death Ballad. I figured anyone is entitled to one, so Why not write one for yourself? That being said, here is mine, if you have one for your character, please share, and if not, at least tell me what you think of mine... It tells the Story of Commodore Greyhound. ( I wrote it in the format of the Ballad of William Kidd, but it is ALL ORIGONAL The Ballad of the Red Gentleman My name is Ol' Greyhound, As I sail, As I sail, My name is Ol' Greyhound, As I sail, My name is Ol'…

This is a Fictional Account of the first meeting, and subsiquent frienship/alliance between me and Blackjack Brimstone of the Devil's Brood Pyrates. I wrote the basic story, and Blackjack added some fleurishes and helped make sure his character was represented accuratly. In reality, we met at the Hampton Blackbeard Fest in 2010 Tale of the First Allaince by ~ Commodore Greyhound and Commodore Blckjack Brimstone of the Devil's Brood They said it was an alliance forged in the hells themselves and that even the locker feared to claim them, all that is truly known is that on that night a dark wind was blowing. A pact between two of the most contemptable pirates to ever …

T’was a time not so long ago that I, Seamus the Unlucky, was Captain of me own ship, the ‘Wolfhound’. Despite a near spotless record of boardin’ an’ raidin’, the ‘Wolfhound’ had eventually been sunk after a bungled mess of a raid on a small port town that will remain unnamed, tank ye very much. This bit of bad luck left me with few options as ta findin’ gainful employment and I was convinced that despite the successes I’d once had, piratein’ weren’t fer me. I have since that day been the cook at the “Itchy Crab” Tavern here in a port where tankfully, no one knew me name. So there I be, mixin’ up a particularly savory batch of me gruel when I hears me a ruckus comin…

I am currently working on writing a pirate/fantasy novel, hopefully a series, set in a parrellel world in the Golden Age of Pirates and I need to fill some character space, if anyone is interested in making a cameo in it I'd be welcome to mention them in passing in one of the books. but I can't reveal too much about the plot since i'm a little paranoid someone will steal my ideas. But if you are interested you should post here and give me some info like your pirate's mannerisms, nature, what they're known for and theur their ship(s) and its name, class and armenement.

Hi everyone! This is my first fiction...so we'll have to see how it goes. I'd love comments/reviews if anyone reads this. Thanks! CHAPTER I I hurried along the streets as quickly and quietly as I could. Nobody must see me. If they did, I would most certainly be caught and dragged back to where I had come from. Why was I running away? Well, I was running away from the terrible fate my parents had sealed for me. They expected me to marry Sir Allen Parker. Sir Allen had lots of money. That was the only reason why my parents thought I should marry him. They didn't think twice about love or a meaningful relationship. I guessed that they hadn't ever even loved each other…

This is a pirate roleplay set during the 1660s in the carribbean, anyone is welcome to participate, that being said, Here is the begining. Shadows danced accross the rooftops of Santiago, yet there was little light to cast them, as no moon hung in the sky. A Black shape pulled into the harbor and dropped anchor, a longboat was launched, when it arrived on shore, a tall figure standing at the bow walked into the nearest tavern, not even waiting for his men to fallow. He drew his cutlass, kicked open the door and bellowed "Where is that dog El Torro! He betrayed me to the dons and I shall have his head for it!"

Never Say Neverland Wherein Captain James Hook finds himself harassed relentlessly by both the memory and the reality of Neverland. This is a story in sixteen chapters of Captain Hook's return to Neverland and what transpires when he gets there. It is the first in the series: Chronicles Of A Neverland Pirate. I write this story for no profit whatsoever and realize that Captain Hook, Peter Pan and Neverland itself belong to the Great Ormond Street Hospital, the rights to Peter Pan having been left to that children's hospital by J.M. Barrie. I intend on posting each chapter in a different message window under this topic, this being…

A simple story. Just use the line of the writer above you and then incorporate your own. Just one sentence. Maybe we get a story going yet . . . The blood pooled at his feet causing the deck to look eerily dark in the moonlight.

Here are the first two chapters of my new short novel. I'd be very interested to see if anyone likes it or wants more. The whole novel is complete, but I'm hoping to publish it or in some way market it.

Steam Attacker Memories of the War of 1895 By Hagen Luke As told to Stephen Sanders Chapter I This is my first attempt to ever write a book, memoir, or anything much more than a letter to a family member or friend. I did try to write a love poem once to a girl but I was ten at the time and the resulting piece, which to my eyes was a work of great art, caused little more than a giggle. Im not trying to write great literature here; Im just trying to record the events of my time. This is a journal, not a novel. Plato was the first to say that necessity was the mother of invention. If that be the case, then survival is most definitely inventions…
