Hmm. Interesting what you find on the Lexicon. I never knew there was a thread for writers. :D

Well I'm really doing this to mark the thread, but I am writing a second story (fanfic), just to be on-topic.

Seems to be more difficult to get out than the first one was. Kind of a strange situation. Wonder if that's true for most writers.

I really REALLY want to write a children's book, or write an Epic children's story. If I could be the next
J.K. Rowling that would make (some) of my dreams a reality. I love how JKR took years of hardwork and dedication to inspire so many children to grow up reading a fantastic story that grew up with them. Right now, I'm working at the Barnes and Noble close to my house doing storytelling time for the children, so I have an idea of what kids are interested in. I'm also planning on studying Psychology and English Literature and write a Thesis about the effects of color schemes and Child Development. I hope that by learning a lot about Developmental Psychology and study the effects that art has on the infant's brain, then (hopefully) I can start making great children's books... and of course there is my love of literature, children, art and inspiration.

I have a few other very unrealistic dreams lol

I'm an aspiring author, but I'm trying to concentrate on schoolwork at the moment. Whenever I get an idea, I plan out the characters for ages, write a few pages and then get a totally different idea and start writing that. The other stories get abandoned :(

I have started a novel.
But only started it, like this week.
It is going to be like sci-fi romantic action-ish, but not really sci-fi just...that's the best word i can think of to describe my idea.
I'm tryin to work through an idea for a language the people speak (I have a formula for it, but some words don't work out so.. .i'm only really going to use a few...*shrug*)
It's on another planet. the character are human, but the society is waaayyyyy different and technology is way more advanced and complicated and smart than it is here right now, even though i'm pretty much writing it to be in the same time frame (early 21st century)

It's going to be fun if I get to work through it...

Glad to see that there's a thread for writers. I am also one of those dreamers that wishes to see one of their novels published. I've been writing this fantasy epic for a while, but am nervous about letting others read it.

I like start a new novel every summer, and never finish it, but i think the problem is, I set it in real places and all i know about them is what i've seen on TV and i'm afraid i'm doing it wrong. So in the one I'm writing now, its my own planet, my own langage, I get to tell you what life there is like, people from there aren't going to read it and go "she's not from here..."
I"m excited about it
