it's like nanowrimo, but you make a script (100 pages) in a month... i joined the young writers program!
me either but sounds interestingsadly i never finished my story for nanowrimo
I didn't either. I was planning on it but I hd too much homework that month. Bleh... lol
Awww!!! How sweet!!! I love babies!!!! Was it a boy or girl?? What's their name??? hehe... sorry with my overwhelming questions... lol
Congratulations!Yep, I've got an idea or two. :) Does anyone else find it funny when you're chatting with a friend, you suddenly have an idea for a scene with some of your characters, you type (or write) it up and then you tell them and they're like, WHAT?? It took you ten minutes!! :P
That sounds awesome!I hope this is ok, but I might take what little (meaning less than one chapter) I have of my NaNoWriMo novel (I know, WAY embarassing) and totally rewrite it.
can we like use a story we started like centurys a go and work with it? cause i have a story that has like a half a page that i wrote in like fourth grade and i would like to use it.
ok, now I have a new idea for my story:a girl (A) was taken by someone after her parents died. She turned out to be a wizard. She was trained by someone in a school, but she didn't like it.
That's the story so far, but I'm still working on it :D what do you think??
I think it sounds good! It could be a wonderful book. :) What do you think of mine:A girl (Dakota) lives in the Minnesotan country with her mom (her dad is a businessman and he travels a lot). She has chickens and kittens and a HUGE pasture and her neighbor has stables. Her mom's old best friend (who now lives in California with her millionaire husband) comes to their country house to visit and brings her son (Lucas). Now, Dakota and Lucas are both 15 and had been born on the exact same day. Lucas is a rich brat and Dakota isn't rich and she doesn't like change or boys. She's shocked and grumpy when she finds out that Lucas is going to be staying with her and her mom while his parents take their month-long vacation. The two teens don't like each other at all at first but they start to become friends. Lucas finally earns Dakota's trust but when something happens to her favorite horse and it's Lucas's fault, she loses her trust in him but he learns how to get the horse better and they become even better friends. I know I just ruined the end, sorry. What do you think?

Yeah, I was trying to think of some more drama but I couldn't really capture any ideas... How about one of the planes Dakota's dad is on like, crashes? And then they have to wait to hear if he's ok cause his plane was going to London but they're in Minnesota.
great idea! is it going to have romance or just friendship?

hoho, of course!!
XD yeah, usually I don't try to add sadness to my books but there could be an airplane crash.Was the romance question directed at me? If it was, it's gonna be like this: first they dislike each other, then they're friends, then they start to like each other for more than friends.
oh.. the story would be great if there's a little more drama to make their friendship stronger!!
do you have any ideas on how to make it more dramatic? or do you think the plane crash and horse will be enough.
hmm, idk, I'm not too creative. but the plane crash is quite enough..
Yeah, I thought so too. I don't wanna make it into a drama, I just want there to be some in it.
Tay wrote: "Thanks you guys for not hating me! I'm always really nervous to suggest something about someones writing, cause I dont want them to take it the wrong way."I'm the same way! Speaking for myself, you don't have to be nervous. :)
I have a notebook but all I do in it is write my thoughts... That also seems to come in handy because a lot of my thoughts give me lots of ideas for my stories...
Jillian wrote: "I have a few ideas -- though most are still in the tentative stages (characters, names, setting, outlining, etc.). :PI'm curious, though. Do any of you have idea notebooks? Or keep notebooks ..."
I keep one by my bed, one in my purse, and one with my writing folder. :P So I can write down any ideas that pop into my head.
I don't have any idea book, but I usually do. But I didn't put in on my bed, I just wrote down the ideas next morning if I remembered... Except if the idea is REALLY great (like the idea I got for this challenge), then I'll write it down directly...The idea about my novel was based on a dream I got.. I usually don't remember my dream immediately when I got up, but this time I managed to write them down :)
I use random pieces of paper to write ideas on and yes I will forget what I had in mind. I have the memory of a really smart gold fish.
While I'm here I wouldn't mind getting some feedback on an element of story I have going on. Here goes: I'm planning one of those stories where it's a few different stories that come together. It's supposed to be a realistic story but I have this urge to add in this twelve foot guy who eats people. What he's doing there I'm not sure but he's there.
Okay, so I officially wrote in the twelve foot guy. It's a risk but I'm going to keep it. If I get a chance i'll show you guys a draft of how it reads
Tay, here is a link if you want to read this little tidbit http://www.goodreads.com/story/show/5...But I think for it to make sense you'd have to read the whole thing. Up to you. Good to have you as a friend.
Okay,I tried to write some poetry but it didn't work out. Instead I got this 522 word short story out of it. It's not bad. I would love for a few heads to check it out, as I'm not really the short story type but growing into it. http://www.goodreads.com/story/show/5...
Hi everyone. Um, I was thinking about putting my first chapter of my "2010 Writers!" book on here. Not now, in a couple of days... What do you think? Should I? I have 12185 words now but I'm not quite done with the first chapter yet. :P
I'd put it on the writing section on goodreads and have a link on here. That's what I'd do.
