You're a writer when you instantly identify yourself with a character (or one of your own)."


That 'anyway' made my day :P I'm so easily amused

I invented a character with Tourette's, so I try to imitate the tics.

It blew my mind.

Jo (Penname8) | 1574 comments ...if you mean the diabolical fanfiction "My Immortal"...

Colby (colbz) | 3211 comments Overattempt at being gothic:
c-r-o-s-s (there's no way I'm writing that)

YES I LIED. This is like a hideous car wreck that I can't peel my eyes away from.

Jo (Penname8) | 1574 comments What's wrong with "cross"? That wasn't very funny, you know.


message 416: by Jo (new)

Jo (Penname8) | 1574 comments Are you talking about the fanfiction?

Colby (colbz) | 3211 comments Jo wrote: "What's wrong with "cross"? That wasn't very funny, you know."

It's from My Immortal. Shitty Harry Potter fanfic. She didn't write the word cross and then included a little author not that said there's no way I'm writing that.
I found it quite funny.

Colby (colbz) | 3211 comments New worst line:
"Abra Kedavra!" he yelled at Snape and Loopin pointing his womb.


message 419: by Isaac (new)

Isaac | 8014 comments I love that line. XD


message 420: by Colby (new)

Colby (colbz) | 3211 comments Gotta love it.


message 421: by Colby (new)

Colby (colbz) | 3211 comments I would probably hit her.
So am I the only one who noticed that the exact three lines from chapter twelve are repeated in chapter thirteen?


message 422: by Colby (new)

Colby (colbz) | 3211 comments Haha. You really have to continue. Chapter 15 was rich...she said Viewer discretion (well, she said 'excretion', but I knew what she meant, sorta...) is advised because it's a really scary chapter. I almost died of how unscary it was.


message 423: by Colby (new)

Colby (colbz) | 3211 comments Ahaha. I'm ready for Chapter 17 but I think I need to be done for the night.
I. Must. Write. Something.


message 424: by Colby (new)

Colby (colbz) | 3211 comments Hahaha...haha...heh...about that.
I didn't make it farther than day three, okay?

Yeah, I don't know why.

Jo (Penname8) | 1574 comments Gimme a link. I might either have convulsions from the disgust or die laughing.

sucre'd fiend (sucredfiend) | 79 comments You know you're a writer when......
you cry after writing something sad you knew you'd had planned for the start for a character you come to love.

It's priceless. xD

"[Dumbledore] started to cry wisely."
"[Hagrid] paused in the air dramitaclly, waving his wand in the air. Then swooped he in singing to the tune of a gothic version of a song by 50 Cent."
"He started to scream. 'OMFG! NOOOOO! MY SCAR HURTS!' and then... his eyes rolled up! You could only see his red whites."
"And then the roses turned into a huge black flame floating in the middle of the air. And it was black. Now I knew he wasn't a prep."
"'STOP IT NOW YOU HORNY SIMPLETONS!' shouted Professor McGoggle"

Jo (Penname8) | 1574 comments "I cried sexily."


message 433: by tesni (new)

tesni (akhmatova) | 5031 comments ...How is it possible for one to cry sexily? O___o

Jo (Penname8) | 1574 comments That's a quote from My Immortal.

STORY OF MY LIFE.


Jordan, The Picture Magician (aka Probie) (thepicturemagicianakaprobie) | 2218 comments apparently, this character (ebony or enoby or whatever the hell her name is) does everything "sexily".

I've felt sad about killing off a character before. Actually, I couldn't do it. I had this death scene planned, and on the day I was going to write it, a friend of mine passed away and so then when I tried to write it that night it was so similar to what had actually happened and I just couldn't do it. I come to really like my characters.

I know. How someone can be sultry they even weep sexily is beyond me.

She must.


message 440: by Isaac (new)

Isaac | 8014 comments My favorite line:

"Sudenly a gothic old man flu in on his broomstick. He had lung black hair and a looong black bread. He wus werring a blak robe dat sed 'avril lavigne' on da back. He shotted a spel and Vlodemort ran away. It was...DUMBLYDORE!"

The reason that's my favorite line is because I heard a dramatic reading of chapter 17 and the guy started laughing when he read that line and the music was so dramatic... it was hilarious.

Jo (Penname8) | 1574 comments WEIRD.

YESSSSS.

If I don't kill this one character off, my whole plot will collapse, but every time I write about him I love him more and more and I think I'm going to sob when I kill him.


message 443: by Jo (new)

Jo (Penname8) | 1574 comments I have this part where there a school massacre, but I really only kill one minor character. I feel like a pussy for not killing more.


message 444: by Jo (new)

Jo (Penname8) | 1574 comments You mean her charrie or more of mine?


message 445: by Jo (new)

Jo (Penname8) | 1574 comments Why, thanks.


message 446: by GSGS (new)

GSGS | 68 comments A few months ago I read seven or so chaps of My Immortal and physically couldn't read anymore without my brain exploding/imploding/whatever.

That's my excuse.


message 447: by Isaac (new)

Isaac | 8014 comments YOU MUST READ ALL OF IT BECAUSE IT'S FREAKING HILARIOUS.

You know you're a writer, when you realize winter break is coming up soon, and the first thing you think is, "THINK OF ALL THE WRITING I CAN GET DONE!"

Anyways, you know you're a writer if when hear a perfect name for your character, you get so excited.

I've had several anger attacks when the perfect name for a character is my friend's/relative's name.
