Chelsea | 38 comments Thanks, and I don't know how to post up my writing, but I will read yours. Do you think you could tell me how to post it up?


message 52: by Chelsea (new)

Chelsea | 38 comments Oh My Gosh! I can't believe I don't know how to post it! Man I can be dumb sometimes! lol :) Ok, here's a question that is not kinda stupid. lol Where would I post my writing?


message 53: by Chelsea (new)

Chelsea | 38 comments Ok, you are scary good! How old are you? If you are a teen then I am a very very pethetic writer. VERY VERY PATHETIC! and yes I know I just spelt those words two different ways and yes I know that they could both be spelled wrong. lol


message 54: by Brigid ✩ (new)

Brigid ✩ okay, to post your writing you go to "explore" at the top of the page, then click on "stories & writing" then look in the right-hand corner for "my writing", and on the next page click on "add my writing". it will ask you to give your writing a title, describe what it's about, etc. then you can add it chapter by chapter, by either writing directly into the box, or copying and pasting from a document. does that help?

My story is about when a teenager's parents are kidnapped and the teen and her uncle try to rescue them. I still trying to think of some good titles but have come up with zilch! I am open to suggestions! :)


message 58: by [deleted user] (new)

I've written some short stories and poems, not lately though. They're all in Dutch and I'm not that confident about my writing skills so I've never published, even on the internet. I also keep a diary and like to read the old ones, it makes me feel good about my writing.

message 69: by Sella (new)

message 72: by Dianne (new)

Dianne Ascroft | 8 comments Yes, I write - and I love doing it. I have a few ideas swirling around in my head at the moment, now I just need the time to get them down on paper. I'd written mostly non-fiction articles, a few poems and short stories until I started working on my historical fiction novel, 'Hitler and Mars Bars'. It was released in March - and I haven't had time to write in ages as I seem to spend my free time phoning bookshops, sending press releases and generally promoting it. I have been enjoying promoting it - but I'd also love some time to write again!

Dianne Ascroft,
'Hitler and Mars Bars'



message 73: by Sella (new)

Sella Malin Hey everyone,

I'm going to delete my stories "The Morte" and "Stairway to the Stars" from Goodreads permanently. I'm deleting The Morte because it's finished and I don't want the whole thing hanging on the internet; and I'm deleting Stairway to the Stars because the friend I'm writing it with doesn't want it to be on the internet. So if you haven't gotten to read The Morte or Stairway to the Stars and you want to, then this is your last chance. I'll delete it in a day or two.

The Morte:

Stairway to the Stars:

message 89: by Kim (new)

Kim | 3 comments I write poetry. In fact, my master's thesis was a collection of my poetry. Haven't written in awhile, but I'm changing that. Not big on submitting my work for publication. Perhaps I should change that, too.

Steven | 5 comments I'm still actively writing stuff.

Quite recently, I've just completed a 103,000 word, action adventure novel. However, my current publisher only publishes non-fiction so I'm looking for another publisher for this.

I thought I'd be ready for a break after completing this, but 3 weeks later, I'm already 40,000 words into a children's novel, that I want to write for my kids, prior to writing anything else.

If anything, I find writing to be a great release. There's so much in there, that my appetite will not be quenched for years to come.

A strong statement, I know, but that's how it feels.

Cheers

message 94: by Jennifer (new)

Jennifer (jenna_l) | 3 comments Yes, I write also! I've been writing online for a decade, I have a blog, I'm trying to write a novel, and hopefully in the next month or two I can get paid for writing professionally.

But I'm not trying to make a living off writing; I'm interested in it as a creative, fun, and sometimes financially supportive thing I can do on the side.


message 95: by Gina (last edited Nov 19, 2008 12:22PM) (new)

Gina (grcollia) Hello all :o)

I'm a writer too. My first book came out at the end of September - Utamaro Revealed, and I have another book coming out at the end of January next year. Utamaro Revealed is non-fiction, but the next book is a fictional account of some very peculiar events in my own life.

I write because I love doing it. Where Utamaro Revealed is concerned (and every other book on Japanese art I produce from this point forward), I research because I'm obsessed with Japanese art and can't stop. It's my life. I'll keep going until I drop.

I started work on the book that's coming out next year as a form of therapy, to lay to rest a difficult period in my life. The idea morphed before I began writing it, and it turned from a very serious book into a satirical one.

I've got a number of ideas swimming around in my head right now, so I think I'm going to be very busy for the next hundred or so years. :o)

I have a blog too: Utamaro Revealed Blog

I'm still putting together a web site for the second book, and I'm hoping to have that finished very soon.


message 96: by Kathryn (new)

Kathryn (katymac55) I found out my life's passion about a year ago and now I can't stop. Writing is really the best thing that has ever happend to me. I never realised how many ideas and stories I've had stored in my head. Both of my parents passed away a few years ago before I even reached highschool and writing has helped me with that more than I though imaginable. I've started three novels; bailed on two and am now committed to one that is actually going really well. I have it posted on my profile. It is kind of like historical fiction because the people are mostly real. But it isn't I just love different historical eras of elite society.


message 97: by Julia Trotter (new)

Julia Trotter I've just started writting and I would love some feedback on my first attempt at a novel "Pipe Dreamer". Check it out:

message 98: by Catamorandi (new)

Catamorandi (wwwgoodreadscomprofilerandi) I, too, am a writer. I have been writing in some form or another since I was ten. I am writing my first novel called "Brit's Wild Ride." It is a kind of a humorous look at good vs. evil. It is probably geared to children.


message 99: by Sella (new)

Sella Malin Oy vey. I just finished Chapter Fourteen of Outcast...it was the HARDEST thing I've EVER had to write in my LIFE!! PHEWW!! *wipes sweat off brow, breathes heavily* I'm SO glad I finished it! I thought it would last forever!! 0.0 PLEASE read it and comment for all my labor and grief. >.< Excuse me for the lengthiness and sort of run-on-iss.

message 100: by [deleted user] (new)

I write poetry and stories. I tell/write lots of stories. I have no collection of them. I usually send them off to people.

I am in progress with my first real work, my autobiography. It along with some poetry are located in my writing here on Goodreads. The autobiography is titled Starset Nights.
