I write all the time. You name it, I've probably tried writing it. Poems, lyrics, short stories, novels, etc, (yes, I said novels) I'm actually going in between short stories right now, but I've got a major case of writer's block right now, and it isnt good. I get all upset and angry when I cant write. Its my outlet, considering I dont talk all that much. Writing has been something I've had since as long as I can remember. I dont let anybody read a lot of it for two reasons: One being its private, my own work, & I show it when I'm ready. And second I cant stand people critisizing my work. Its not something I do for people to judge. I write because its something I love doing.

Yeah I just wondered if were allowed to post our stories in this forum. I have a story I'm starting called "Ten". Its about ten people that survive after armaggedon. They start their new society, and it gets crazy. They argue about all the things that people debate about today. Vegetarianism, Abortion, Death Penalty, Government Control, War...all that sort of stuff. Its getting developed really well...I'd love to post it here, but if I can't oh well...

El Verte Veritas I think you should probly ask a mod if you put whole stories on. I know that you can put short descriptions of your book but thats all I know about it. I have done it for a few of the books I am writing. There comming along well.

well i don't write. but if it is for a school project then yes i will. i wish i still had them they were pretty good if you ask me. but that is about the time i write anythign like poems or stories or something. is for school i am not the writing type i guess. it never worked for me. i would rather listen to music or some thing like that.

I don't htink you are, since so far people have just asked others to PM them if they want it. But I'm not sure.

Story writing! YAY!
I've started writing a book before but after a little while I kind of decided that it was the worst thing on the planet. But this year I am in a program at school where we have to do 150 community service hours, and 50 of those have to have something to do with creativity. I asked a teacher what I could do and she said to find a supperviser to help me write a book. I thought that was awesome!! But I have absolutely no idea what to write about Hopefully I figure something out, but suggestions are LOVED.

Well, it depends on what length of story you are writing and what genre.

If it's fanasy, one way that I find good to come up with ideas is to take a dream and build a story around it...that is if you have interesting dreams. I don't but my best friend has really cool dreams so I use hers.

I'm not sure if this is allowed, but I can link you guys to some of my stuff if you like. I havent read anything that said we weren't allowed to link.

But also if I'm allowed I'll post some very short things I've written, but somebody let me know before I even start that.

thank you.

as far as i know, you are allowed to post links and short things...but i'm not quite sure.

Mod Edit: Short posts are not allowed, please elaborate in future or don't post at all.

Side Note: Links are allowed as long as they don't lead to anything derogatory or any pornographic material.

Haha, awesome!! I had a wicked dream last night, and I wrote it all down for futur reference Thanks!

Mod Edit: Short posts are not allowed. Quoting someone does not count towards your post length.

i love writing! poems and stories! without a pen and paper any where near me i would probably die of boredom! i just love to wonder in my imagination and create something for my friends to enjoy. Writing is something i spend my time doing, forget the homework! you'll see me pick up a great notepad and pen and be writing away to the tunes of MCR, Evanescence or whatever else.

Writing is my love! K.Lupin_werewolf is my real life twin and we both have a huge passion for writing, stories and poems etc. We both tend to ditch homework to the last mintue and do our creative writing. I would love to be an author one day just like J.K herself.

wow hi my real life twin!! didn't know you posted here! writing is my love, i married it first!! so true we never really get off the computer or put our pens down! and i have to say this because i don't think she ever really believes me because she is too shocked or whatever but . . .
i love her story! roll on the film! her stuff is just fantastic! it has made me cry, laugh, scream, shout and grumble and smile! i think she could go really far with her work if she takes every opportunity to make it happen. one day, one day, for my sister it will happen! mark my words! and i really mean it roll on the film! and by the way . . .
R.I.P Richard Harris! xxxxx you are greatly missed and still greatly loved!

I am writing (another) story. It takes place in Mideval Europe. The main characters are Alexandria the princess and heir to the throne. Her dad (the king) is trying to marry her off. The problem is that she knows who she wants to marry and he's a commoner .... Meanwhile Sarah is a servant at the palace. Soon her mystirius work becomes linked with the dissaperance of the princess...

Well thats it. Hope you like it. If you would like to read the first chapter let me know!!

I've written a few fan fics but none are good enough to post them somewhere I've also started to write a fan fic about Ruper Grint and I am working really hard on this one, maybe this one will turn out good enough to post it somewhere! I am considering to study literature when I go to collegue (in a year) so let's see what becomes of that, because I'm also very interested on studying Veterinary Medicine so I am still very undecisive.

I have a friend who wrote a novel but I haven't read it yet, I hope she lends it to me soon so I can tell you all how it is!

I am certain most of the people here at Veritaserum have writen or at least started to write something, wouldn't it be cool if someone we met here at this web page's forums became a very famous writer one day? I have no doubt at least one of us has a future in writing!

Fraggle

I would love to read the first chapter...if you could just PM it to me, that would be great!

Mod Edit: Hi Ginevra. You've been here long enough to know not to post one liners. Quoting others does not count as text, seeing as it's not adding to the discussion.

Its great to see some folks here working on fics and bits of writing.

I myself am currently immersed in a poetry project with a few friends (yes, that I what I do for fun) and we're comin up with 56, that we'll be (hopefully aranging piece by piece into one solid 9- disc vnyl. (hopefully)

I'll post a teaser excerpt later.

God Bless.

I love to write. I have writen four completed fanfics and I am half way through another one. All of them I have posted on here and I am really happy with the reviews I get. The more honest a review, I believe, the better writer it makes you because you can take what people tell you and improve on it.
Most nights before I go to bed I write if I can, or at least think of what I can add to the story when I write next.
When it comes to poetry, I am really hopeless. It just doesn't sound that good when I read over it.
I need to start a new story because I like to have a few I can write at a time so I don't get writers block; it just seems to help keep my ideas rolling. My new fic will hopefully be a SS/HG fic but I don't know how to do that keeping Snape in charactor.
Can anyone help me??

I have writen three plays about a poor gir, Andrea,l who is sentenced to death because she disagreed with the Queen who's son she loves. Andrea runs away and meets another royal family whose eldest Princess is engaged to the man she loves so the three girls change the wedding plans so Andrea marries the Prince. Then they go back to the Queen and she tries to kill Andrea and heaps of conflict comes from that. Most of my friends don't like it but that makes me think I should improve them.

Esrb99, what you and your friends are doing sounds really fun and I cannot wait to read some of the poetry when you post bits of it.

Caity

I love to write too, but none of my friends who live nearby do. I spent a lot of my summer writing a story about what happens after the movie X-Men 3 because I hated the end. I also have the start of tons of stories in my closet and on the computer. My first ever idea for a whole book came from Lord of the Rings when I was 7 or so. I've gota whole book full of bad pictures.
I've also written some short stories for school. The best is about a French knight in King Arthur times.
Caitlin in Australia I would portray Snape as really evil and annoying, but I do dislike him very very strogly.
If you're writing it from Harry's point of view he should be evil, from Snape's he could be evil or good however he thinks of himself.

i am really bad when it comes to writing... i don't mean i am a bad writer what i mean is i write too much!

i have several stories on the go... around about...
6 novels!
3 short stories or there abouts
countless poems
loads of songs
and i have started 1...2...3...4... fan fics!!

the first fan fic is a funeral ball in dumbledore's memory with like everybody there; lupin, tonks, the hogwarts staff, some ministry, the trio, the weasley's ect... and they hold things in his honnor like ten pin bowling and there are loads of sherbet lemons, acid pops etc...

the other one is about Ron and Hermione when they have grown up and their first daughter is going to Hogwarts and also Harry and Ginny are in it as well...

the 3rd is about Lupin's Daughter... i just idea that i liked and well it is only fan fiction! and well basically it's the story of how the two reunite...

and the 4th is called "Forbidden Love". this one illustrates the relationship between Snape and Narcissa...

i have cut those stories short, very short they are just the base story lines...

i love writing!!

If i'm grateful for something concerning school, that's the fact that i learned how to read and write. There is no way i will survive without writing. My bag is full of pieces of paper where i've written ideas for stories, rhymes, titles for songs... I love the feeling of inspiration. Have you felt it? It is so amazing, when i'm inspired everything around me blurrs, it's just me and my thoughts. Whenever i'm emotionally vulnerable, i write, and write and write....
I've written many short stories, i've started writing a long one, but i never completed it, i've written several poems and gift cards and of course, many songs. I just write. Observe and write.

i know exactly what you mean. i get strokes of inspiration and then i just sit on my bed and write. mostly i write fan fics for harry potter, but some other stuff too.

I'm an English major so you can only imagine how much i write, specially on the computer with 12 page papers due and full articles on why toilet paper spins the way it spins you learn to love writing. Some people are just BORN loving it. I like the way it makes me feel when ive had a bad day and i go and write about it.


Maybe its just me or maybe its everyone but writing is my PASSION.

writing is also my passion!! and why not everyone's?? so much can be expressed with words...

alkisti - inspiration! i know what you mean!! i am inspired by things i see, things i hear, smells and things i touch.. etc... i look at things and see more that what it actually is... is see another story, another music video, another poem... and i also write when i am most emotionally vulnerable! i feel it flows better then anyways! when i am emotionally vulnerable i feel i can step in to the shoes of my charatcers better and when i look back on thngs of wrote it amazes me how deep it is just because i had had a hard day or something!

What happened in your story? My friend also hated the end, she pointed out that there should be another one because Magnito seems to be getting his powers back...

I currently have two stories going right now, but I am currently suffering writer's block.... One of them is about a girl who goes on a quest to save the city-state where she lives from a demon who has taken over the throne, and the other is about a girl and a boy who go on a quest to find their fathers. If you ask, I can PM you the beginning of the first one when I get it typed up.

ohh i love you x-girl, i also hated the ending...uhh i did not like it. ohh post the story please!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've actually been writing a few things since I... disappeared from this forum. I've started a lot of different projects. I really want to write the screenplay to American Idiot. I have since I was 14 and they were talking about putting it into a movie. I was like "Well....pfft. I could do that." I just never got around to it. Some of the characters even today still confuse me -- on where they ended up and simple things like that. So, I've been listening to that cd a lot. I've also taken upon myself to go ahead and start The Black Parade. Also a screenplay. Of course, I'm not really expecting to get it published or anything but, I just want some perspective on the whole "rock opera" thing, and the Patient is just an incredible character. In the "movie" I want to incorporate all five guys of the band too. Kind of the Patient's parade, while he's in his teen years and so forth. I've taken plenty of notes on the CD, and know who all the guys would play and all those details. I'm really excited for it, though. I've never actually finished a screenplay before. Sure, I've started them or whatever, but I'm taking a creative writing class now and my teacher is being really great about helping me out.

Enough about the screenplays.

I'm right in the middle of 2 novels. Those details aren't important, but...I'm really, really excited about them. I could link anybody to them...or something close to them. Just ask. One of them takes place during our century. The other in the late 1800's. So... let me know.

well, i'm not really a writer, in general, but I luv to read all sorts of writing. But, when theres' nothing better to do, I start writing. I have a crazy imagination (wild, some might say). My writing always seems to reflect my mood for some reason, for example, one chapter in some of my texts might be over-exaggerated & emotional, whereas others might be happy & slightly odd!

I would love to see your novels, phoenix_song!

I haven't been writing much lately, I seem to be sufferign from writer's block. I read all the time though, and I think that reading is the second best way to improve your writing skills-the best being, of course, to write.

I miss writing. Being in Year 10 means there is little free time plus way back in October I went away from home to a NASA trip in America (Florida and Texas) and for some strange reason ever snice I came back I haven't been able to write my story. Its not writers block, I know that for certain because I know exactly what to write but nothing comes. The flow is there but the feel is gone. . .have any of you lot felt like this before if so could you tell me what you did? I need help on this matter. Thanks Oh by the way there are a lot of very talented writers on this thread, keep up the good work everyone

awww sister! yeah hardly any time whatsoever just to sit down and write!

i swear i am really bad!! really bad in the sense that i can't stop!
i have like around 3 different versions of the novel that we have to do for shcool.
5+ fan fics on the go...
2 major stories on the go
and then 2 short stories on the go
and then another 3 (i think) stories on the go that can easily turn into novels or just short stories....
and then i have a bunch of poems
and then i have an endless song collection... ok not that endless...

jeez!

judging by this thread we all do a lot of writing....

Ok Jade, that's a lot! *looks worried* maybe a few too many... ? lol just kidding.
yeah i had that, i just kidna typed complete rubbish until the flow came back! good advice..i know
ok i have 2 fan fics going, a short story, and ideas for a new fic/story. also a few poems i keep adding too (usually in maths classes ! )
.X.

Well i do a fair bit of writing myself it's just a matter of me wanting to do it.

I used to write this story called Jason Harper but it started to gpo slightly out of sink an i haven't found myself to start it again. I am writing a Doctor who fan fiction at the moment and i did start a Harry Potter one but that hasn't gone anywhere at the moment.

erm you are right to be honest!!
and how are your stories going?? what are they about??

hey dan!!

i know the feeling!


used to!! no no no! you do write it... he he ...yeah...you do...sure you do..


i remember some time ago when i really just had 1 main story and well i was went on the computer one day and the whole thing had gone. i mean gone. it was over 100 pages and i lost if all and had to start from..well the begining!! and Lauren (my sister) was writing her's and because i lost all of mine she got ahead and she had way more pages then me! i cried when it happened! but i think the story is loads better now so in a way it was a good thing... ...

That would be terrible! Lol. imagine loosing all your work...*shudders*
Umm i have a James/Lily fan fic and a Marauders one - but i had writers block on the marauders one so i haven't been bothered recently.

what's it about? And don't say Jason Harper... lol
.X.

yes... absolutley terrible!!


oooo interesting! how is the James and Lily one? and i'm sure you'll get the flow back on the Marauders one.


aww it was good!! i'll let him say though ...

Umm it's 4 VTM pages long which is 123 word pages! haha *rock on*
no do tell me about Dan's, seeing as he's not on please *looks hopeful* Is it realtd to Owen Harper *shudders* i'm sorry Dan but i'll never like him..
.X.

Oh god know it has nothing to dop with Owen don't you worry Sophie. I've been Owen the cold shoulder anyway at the moment. It's alot more like Harry Potter anyway.



Nah i dont anymore Jade i quit it just didn't feel right anymore. Sorry.

Well i prefer the Fan fics anyway. I like doing Doctor who ones.

So true
you're not writing it anymore?!?! *gasp* but i want to know what it's about!
Thank goodness it's not about Owen... *shudders* Harry Potter sounds like a much better idea
.X.

amortentia_lover

Thanks anyways I'll try that
So I have not wrote for a while now But I have managed a page just about which onlt took about...well...FIVE MONTHS I want to write I'll try what you did soon but Jade and Dan I fear for Mercy Miracle, sorry

No Mercy!!!!! Argh no can't survive maybe you just had writers block you have to continiue with it and Jade you with yours i'm meaning to read your Katrina one for like ages.

Sophie - I will explain but later it is a long story but to cut it short! It's about a boy with a griup of friends and he has somebody determined to kill him for no apparent reason he has lots of questipons. He has a school called Thunderbolts. I am stopping it because it is tpo like Harry Potter.

Seriouslysirius

Im sorry Dan but it is dieing. . .I know what to do but I don't think I care anymore about it, sorry. I haven't got writers block because I know what to do I just don't want to anymore but at the same time I do, I'm confused
I'll let you know if it comes back. . . but I doubt it.

I write a lot. I mean A LOT! Ideas just seem to come to me but I don't always have a pen and paper which is a shame because it sounds great in my head but by the time I get around to writing it, it sounds terrible! I do a lot of descriptive writing and I like my stories to have a lot of depth and detail, to plunge the reader into the story, make them feel like a part of the story, like they're there. I love reading books like that. I try not to go overboard on it, though. I tried writing poems and I 've been told I 'm quite a good poet!

well sometimes my poems are really good, sometimes they're not.
One time i extended one i wrote in maths, and made the lady go murderous and kill her husband. weird, i know, but was actually an amazing poem! just shows what you can do with words...
.X.

I am a straight A student. I am a genius- as you might call it. I went to the top schools - and I am going to get my PH.D. in astronomy and become a professor


But to do that I have to be amazing at science...

I just spent about four or five months writing a huge physics paper.
My life revolved around it.


And I get a 72.78%

my only grade ever in my life lower than a 95%

and the most important grade of my life and i get a 72!

my life is basically screwed now.

I told you all, mainly Dan and Jade that Mercy is dieing, well yeah that is true But randomly at 11:30 I started writing this random thing I wrote for half an hour about three quartes of a page It was alright actully So maybe just maybe Mercy will come back now I started writing again But Dan and Jade you will have to wait. . .Only time will tell. . .

well...i'm not really a 'writer' in general...but when I am really super bored & I can't be bothered to do my homework...I write a whole lot of randomn stuff

I literally hate poems...ok, maybe 'hate' is too strong of word, but well...poems annoy me...I don't know why, but they just do...but strangely enough I always end up getting full marks on my poetry assignments!

Jay that's kinda weird... ! Soem of my poems i get full marks for, and some, to be blunt, are rubbish. It depends on the assignment. The ones for school homework tend to be pretty rubbish as they alwasy make you write poems about stupid things.
Although once we ahd to write a poem on darkness, and guess what...?! we had a power cut.... so i wrote my poem on darkness by candlelight... that one got a really good grade
.X.

oh Lauren!! shame to hear about Mercy but you have been saying that its dead for a while now... i don't know what to say....
i'll just go upstairs and cry my eyes out.

Dan there is no point in reading Katrina because it too is dead. i am hoping that it will come back to life again when i see David Thewlis as Lupin in the next film. David as Lupin sort-of started it all.
well i can't say i have wrote anything for a while now...

.... keep all the writing up guys and poems? oooo i love poems..ish...maybe...sort-a ....depends ....

I don't really think of my self as a writer, most of the stuff i do write is pretty much on the comedic any of the serious stuff never see the light of day. I'm actually pretty shy with my writing, which is the only thing I'm ever really shy about.


Yeah i can't write well on the **** they give me , unless its a good topic. I usually end up writing something that totally opposes what the assignment was. I usually make it funny. My school is very...hmm.. well lets say they have different methods of teaching than most, we share out loud a lot! and since i always find my self sharing what i write, i make it funny, makes sharing easier. Least i think so.

Oh and I'm writing a fan fic, which I'm not very happy about. I think i had a different idea when i started it , but I'm not very happy with where its going now. Blah! I don't know. I'm very paranoid about writing.
