#NaNoWriMo and me
I wanted to inform you all that I’ll be participating in NaNoWriMo (http://www.nanowrimo.org/) this year. I hope to post the progress of my novel here as well as on the NaNoWriMo site. I believe I’ll be writing a sci-fi story but wont know for sure until I actually begin the story November 1st.
NaNoWriMo is National Novel Writing Month, and it encourages authors to write a 50,000 (or more) word novel in 30 days. If you wish to participate or know more please visit the official site and sign up with no obligations, and if you want to be my writing buddy (corny, I know) I signed up as esahc. More information on National Novel Writing Month can also be found here.
A Quick Note: More words are coming, I promise.
Hello all you wonderful people. I just want to note that I realize that’s it’s been a while since I posted something on Your Predator and I apologize. The only excuse I have is that life had gotten in the way.
Writing can at many times be quite difficult for me, a time-consuming art-form, not only am I dyslexic (sometimes not being able to read at all), words are an art I care deeply about. The pieces I create, I don’t try to tell a perfect story, it’s more poetry to me. Placement of the words are of paramount importance. The sound and flow when spoken out loud and taken into account. Imagery and a deeper meaning within the words are my goals.
More words a coming, I promise.
Coming soon:
- Lotus and the Rose: The Song of Calling
- Lotus and the Rose: Prologue
- More western Wednesday.
Status Update #5 (Life)
Things have been extremely busy for me the past couple weeks and I’d like to apologize for not updating as often as I would like. This site is a dream of mine. I love sharing my work, and I love the fact that you take the time to read my words.
That being said, this site has to come second to my bill paying job and my family.
There will come times when I may not be able to post, be it a few days or a week. Occasionally my job takes one hundred percent of my time, a couple of weeks ago I was sent for training and the hotel didn’t have free wifi (paying for wifi wasn’t in my budget), so I had to settle with drinking myself into a stupor at the hotel bar (oh poor me).
This past weekend I was on vacation with my family in the Sierras and had a great time.
I want to assure you that this blog will continue to be updated and the words will continue to flow. I genually appriciate your readership and I hope you enjoy what I write.
Thanks
-Hunter C Coch
Site Redesign
As you can tell I just redid the blog with a new theme. I wasn’t too happy with the last. I’m not one hundred percent happy with the new theme, though I thinks it comes across more professional (I host at wordpress.com at the moment so I’m limited on choice without paying). I hope you like.

Submit Your Visual Art
As of tonight the site has a new header (that I’m still not happy with), however if you like my words and would like to contribute to ‘Your Predator’ I would love to see the headers you come up with.
All I ask is the headers are 920 x 180 pixels contain the words “Your Predator’ and are highly creative.
Submissions should be sent to huntercoch@yourpredator.com. If you feel so inclined, please write a short bio with any contact information you wish revealed (no information will be sold, given away or traded with out your explicit permission), along with a description and your feeling on your creation.
The best best submissions will be the header for this site for one week (maybe longer if I really like them) starting on Sundays. When the new header goes up a blog post about you and your creation will be posted.
I thank you for reading and look forward to the visual art.
Status Updat: #1
With a drink at my desk and a slight buzz this humble writer is here to inform you of my latest endeavor; the first serial on this site. The day this site gets it’s domain name is the day the first installment of the serial is released (sometime early to mid August). I also invite anyone reading this to be my mini-editors; typos & misspellings, feel free to point them out; constructive criticisms, great; praise, oh god please; hate, only if you feel like waisting your time as the more I’m hated the greater impact I’m leaving.
To describe this story would be imposable, though if your looking for a genre slipstream would fit it best. I hope it’s like nothing you’ve ever read, & if it is please point me to this author.
Also if you want the latest updates to this site along with all the other mundane ramblings, remember to follow me on twitter (@esahc).
domain Name
Next month (when money becomes available) a domain name will be registered for this site; regular posting will commence shortly.
Welcome
I am writing to say hello to the multitudes of zero on this first post of my first blog, which I hope will gain a modest following in time. I’ve, way to long, neglected my writing, and on this day, July the fourth two thousand nine, I vow this will change.
I’ve been writing for as long as I can remember, poetry, prose, stories and things yet to be categorized.
I hope you enjoy.
