Creative Writing

I've been doing creative writing for over a decade now. I mostly do science fiction and horror. I just started a short story in which I'll try to use a voice similar to Douglas Adam's. Here's the beginning. What do you think?

          Police car lights flashed on his wall. A bit of broken glass remained on the floor by the window from when the window had been broken by a beer bottle a few nights ago. The smell of marijuana came from Theo’s apartment in which Theo commonly held apocalypse parties. The sound of someone slowly walking down the stairwell were made. Whoever was walking down the steps was walking quite slowly. Andelo slowly opened his eyes. He stared straight up at the ceiling and took in his surroundings. Andelo had gotten used to the sirens and the flashing of the police cars. He was also used to the smell of marijuana which came from Theo’s apartment four floors above but Andelo did wish Theo would put an end to his partying which occurred an average of once in every 2.87 days, simplified to the nearest hundredth. Every morning before Andelo got up out of his bed, he lay and thought for a few minutes. Eventually, nothing special came to mind and he decided he would settle on calculating how many seconds on average it took for the man who was most likely leaving Theo’s to go down one step. About three minutes later, one clunk on the stairs every 3.55 seconds became several clunks per second and then the clunking ceased. Adelo decided to make sure the person most likely leaving Theo’s was alright, rather than adding the several clunks he had just heard to his calculation. Andelo looked at his digital clock and saw it was five minutes past nine in the morning. He lifted his blankets, got out of bed, and walked on the wooden floor to open his door. He twisted the brass doorknob, and pulled open his door. On the floor at the bottom of the stairs just a few feet from Andelo, a scrawny Caucasian man with shaggy, long blond hair and a beard down to his neck was standing up.

Well... If Theo likes chess, he's in !

I'll likely finish this story in the next week (although I will be busy).

most likely the shaggy blond gentleman is a stoner... perhaps he wants to be neighborly and offer a toke from his pipe...

I'll look out for the next installment. 

I deleted the two posts I made that contain chapters one and two of the book I'm writing. I'm constantly changing and editing parts so if I continued posting, it all wouldn't add up very well. If and when I get my book published, I'll post some information about that. 

Understandable. Best of luck to you in that endeavor.

Thanks.
