Welcome.
Welcome.

I also want to encourage others to write, which is why I set up this interactive short story writing website with a couple of friends. We want writers of all levels of experience (including none) to use our site to help inspire their own writing.
The premise is that you use something or somebody from an existing story as a focus for a story of your own. The stories are then hyperlinked to allow the readers to jump between stories to follow their favourite character, place or object.
Please come along and enjoy it. Four of the stories on there are mine (mtb1757).

I used to do it more often when I was younger because I had the time and the creativity to come up with things etc etc but then high school came and my time to read or write has been reduced to basically nothing more than reading the books we had to read for assignments (or the occasional Lord of the Rings/Hunger Games I read between schoolwork over months of time, ugh!)
But now that I'm in college, I rediscovered my creative mind (probably also the whole evolution of thinking etc) and decided to work on a long-term fanfiction instead of the sloppy one shots I sometimes wrote inbetween coursework during high school
In short: yeah, writing is cool! Even better when my muse is on point c:

The worst parts about school are the people.


To me, conversations aren't necessarily the harder parts of writing because a story is wider than just conversations, like descriptions, figurative devices and speech, grammar etc. Conversations are what you make them, be it the focal point of your story, the minor part, just there because or to make the story more interesting. That's just what I think.

Finally someone who understands!
Has anyone here ever participated in NaNoWriMo?
I did for the first time last November and I'm doing Camp NaNoWriMo starting next month
No, different website. I can give you the link if you'd like?
Try just lower case letters if not the search for NaNoWriMo. Sorry about that
