Michele | 1154 comments So is everyone here sticking to SF/F for their story?

I've got some ideas for several different types of stories, but for this I'm writing a fantasy.


message 2: by Trike (new)

Trike | 11342 comments I'm doing Science Fiction. Although it will likely turn out to be more Science Fantasy (Star Trek, Known Space, Old Man's War) since I didn't do any research into anything. I saw Gravity, although I'm not sure that counts.

Kristina | 588 comments Going fantasy since that's what I read the most. This is my first attempt writing it though (unless you count my little anthology entry i suppose).


message 4: by Gordon (new)

Gordon McLeod (mcleodg) | 348 comments I'm returning to the proto-steampunk world I wrote for my 2011 NaNoWriMo. I don't know if it'll stay proto-steampunk or if I'll advance far enough in time to make it true steampunk.


message 5: by Andrea (new)

Andrea (tigerr) | 32 comments I'm still trying to decide because my story could fit into either one.


message 6: by Nancy (new)

Nancy O'Toole (temporaryworlds) | 135 comments I'm doing YA Fantasy this time, which is usually what I do. Tried a mixture of sci-fi and fantasy once. That was an interesting change!


message 7: by Rob (new)

Rob  (quintessential_defenestration) | 1035 comments Post apocalyptic after everything's settled down, basically based on how things evolved after the fall of Rome but applied to America


message 8: by Thane (new)

Thane | 476 comments Steampunk.


message 9: by AndPeggy (new)

AndPeggy | 38 comments I actually shelved the two sf/f books I wanted to do and am doing a YA real world setting.


message 10: by Camilla (new)

Camilla Hansen (malazanshadowdancer) | 64 comments Fantasy of a kind, not sure what to call it. It has some dark-ish elements in it, but I'm not sure if it's going to be as dark as I thought :o


message 11: by Reed (new)

Reed Bosgoed (ReedBosgoed) | 17 comments Dark fantasy/sci fi for me.


message 12: by Shaline (new)

Shaline Lopez | 42 comments Mine is a postapocalyptic dystopia with some traditional fantasy tropes mixed in.


message 13: by Daniel (new)

Daniel Eavenson (dannyeaves) | 127 comments I'm trying SciFi vs Fantasy in mind. Someone's already shot a laser at a witch, so I got that going for me.
