Writing

[GSLeloo]

So in response to the fact that my previous career path has been destroyed, I am looking for another to go into. My friend suggested writing but I hate my writing so here's what it is... last year in creative writing I wrote a story based on Gemstone (hey, it got me an A for a year). It's not done yet but if anyone wants to see it and judge my writing... respond. I'd post it but I think it's like 17 pages so I think that's way too much to post.

[Rysk]

I would like to read it :)

[Adhara]

I'd read it too. You can post it as a downloadable attachment.

[GSLeloo]

Ok let's see if it works..

[GSLeloo]

So.. if anyone has any thoughts or criticism... good, bad, ugly. Feel free to share.

[GSLeloo]

Well, I see 13 people downloaded it.. if anyone is interested I did actually start like a pre-story to that one. So if anyone wants me to put it up, just ask. And as with the one already posted, I never finished it. I just thought it was crap.

[Notsosweet]

Wow , i think you have a talent here. I know you IG and i know Syberus too, But i read it outloud to my husband who has nevr played GS and he says that you made him feel as if he were there, that you can feel the emotion from your story. I say good job and i think you might try writing more !:D

[GSLeloo]

Aw thank you. I'm glad you liked it, that's one person. Any of the 23 others like it? Hate it? Maybe I should finish it...

Bob.. what does that mean?

[Bobmuhthol]

I HATED IT TO THE MAXXX.

[Bobmuhthol]

Krolvin is plural. The Krolvin. Not The Krolvins.

[GSLeloo]

Bob is so mean but I will change it from Krolvins to krolvin.

[Bobmuhthol]

Good. And add a couple pages about me, while you're at it.

[Artha]

I don't see how you can write more than a few paragraphs about a half retarded giantman who refuses to advance.

[GSLeloo]

I could write Bob in... hmm...

Maybe he could be like the comic relief, like the guy that carries Fury's luggage and shit.

[Bobmuhthol]

If I'm going to be comic relief, I have to become a Dwarf named Gimley. I also have to be in the movie Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers.

Gimley pwnz.

[GSLeloo]

Well thank you Daina, I never thought anyone would like it that much.

[GSLeloo]

Ack! I'm super mad now... I was gonna give the like prelude to that story that I had written (somewhere around seven pages) but I just realized all I have is the first scene on this computer and the rest was on the school computer... which was erased when the year ended!

[Artha]

Ouch, that sucks.

[GSLeloo]

Yeah it does... I'm the sad puppy trying to drown in my waterbowl now.

You could never be Gimli... cause Gimli tries to be better than he is and everyone around him. You accept your status.

Very well written, Leloo! I do hope you plan to take some creative writing courses in college. You have a great deal of natural talent for story-telling.

That was a great read!

l had actually been aiming for all science fields... even though I've always been better at english and more interested in it. Guess it's gonna be some writing courses now.

[Solkern]

Story was great...and i found a perfect spot for bob in the story...he can be a human body shield.....he'd be useful....probally the first time ever!

[Betheny]

Write smut.

Smut sells.

[StrayRogue]

As someone who makes money writing from time to time (heh), here's some words of advice:

Media/Journalism - the best place to make any money. Creative writing (stories and such) I'd keep on the back-burner. Never stop writing them, but never get your hopes too high on selling.

Keep working, keep sending stuff off to people. Its takes luck, determination and talent. Never stop working.

[StrayRogue]

Oh yes, smut does sell and is high demand. Filler articles for porn mags are always welcomed. A colleque of mine earned £400 a week writing porn (thats about $1000).

[Solkern]

i should be a porn star. i'd be filthy rich....filthy also

[Betheny]

Web cams make money, right?!

[Solkern]

Yeah i made quite some money on mine.......but dont tell anyone, i have enough trouble fighting the lades off
