Writing what you know  — 1 month ago

I’ve been writing short stories since I was eight years old. I’ve written three or four short novels as well. The thing that I really want with this goal is to write about something I know. Not necessarily non-fiction, but rather, I would like to write something that might make a difference.

Development  — 3 months ago

Been working on something since 2004. Not steadily, mind you, and it’s been quite dormant for most of that time. But new inspiration has come about and I find a pen in my hand and thoughts in my head more often than not. =)
I mostly attribute this newfound inspiration to the books I’m reading. Hamilton’s writing style is very image-inducing, and so new trails are being blazed as I read her words, and thus my brain is being more and more stimulated. :)

Dude, I would love to write a best-seller  — 4 months ago

I ‘ve always loved writing, ever since I was really young. I used to write all these stories and now i just never have time.

I’ve started writing two books. But the thing is that I find that what I write best about are my personal experiences and i’m not sure I want some people who are very close to me to read it, because I’m scared of what they would think.

Untitled  — 4 months ago

I’m working on my first novel. There’s a lot that needs to be ironed out but I’ve got the main story down. Now all I have to do is to finish it and polish it up. Well, not really. i have to find someone who’ll be willing to publish it. I think it will be a good read though :D

Pratchett on writing  — 6 months ago

“Writing is the most fun a person can have on his own”—Terry Pratchett

Freewriting  — 7 months ago

I just stumbled upon the “Freewriting” technique through a Google Ad on this page. I might take a stab at some of the exercises later.

Now, I’m better of to do some physical exercise first, ‘cause I’m not yet fully awake.

Kill, kill, kill!  — 7 months ago

Today, it’s time to kill some darlings. I’m going to see which ideas are still fresh enough to carry over from previous versions of the manuscript. The rest has to die, die, die!

I had to get back to this ... eventually  — 7 months ago

So, I’ve returned to an old book title of mine for about the fifth time. This is the one book which I just have to compulsively keep rewriting every time soon after I’ve decided again that, now—yeah now, I’ll really bury it. We’ll see if, this time, I can make something which I’d honestly want to read myself, and than we’ll see if I’ve made something which others want to read as well.

I’m back to my old, child(ish) dream of having written a bestseller. Here’s to hoping that writing it will be as much fun as the image of having written it. :-P
