I think I would be in there, if I weren't much n00bish.

So, does anybody have the time for the WOR anymore? I tried signing up for the Immortal's RP, but it's much too confusing for me.

I barely have enough time to keep up with posts in here and the other clubs i am in. So not me anyway, this summer i hope to start it anew with a new world etc. Before then, if you can get 4 or so others to keep it going, i am willing to be a re-occuring character and just pop into the action when i can as a bad guy to keep things interesteing.

I tried signing up for the Immortal's RP, but it's much too confusing for me.

I was apart of that for a few months, but it became hard to keep up once i started getting busyer and what not. They are so deep into it, you will probably never catch up... : P

Time to go work on my essay again. : P

Response to Writer's Guild 2005-03-02 17:26:03


Oh yeah, I was deciding my high school courses today. When I hit sophomore year I will be able to enroll for a class called "Writer's Workshop." I'll do that for that year and then for my senior year again.
I also decided that I was going to continue off of a novel I started a couple months ago.
Aaah, that Jack Gantos inspires me.

And now ladies and gentlemen my take on the song that tigger from Winie the pooh sings.

The wonderful thing about wizards
is that wizards are always in trend.
The hats are really pointy!
And their staffs have knobs on the end!
Their lizards toads ravens and snakes,
are fun fun fun fun fun!
but the wonderful thing about wizards
is that there is more than one!

yes I am that bored! Enjoy ^_^

Well, there was all this 'This happened in Level up' on the Tolkien Club. Eventually, I decided to drop in and say hi and Congrats.

Ahh, i see why you joined. I am not a fan of the LUL so much. I am more interested in helping people out and finding out my stats etc. I jump in there every once and a while though. Did you see my massive catch-up from last weekend?

UPDATE
The story I've been working on's Prologue is finished. Since I wrote it in school by hand, I'm going to transfer it onto my computer, then uploading it to the WG for reviews.
From your favorite friend,

(I've decided not to change back to ImmortalDarkness after a while. WithoutCease sounds better and ImmortalDarkness makes me sound like a goth. Which I'm not.)

Response to Writer's Guild 2005-03-03 20:51:02


Here's my story. Please read and review!

prologue

___The only thing I heard were the echoes of my footsteps in the empty school. My last steps inside. I had just gotten out of the principal’s office. I was flunking out of high school.
___While I was in there he told me what I feared would come. I first received the omen when I found out no matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t even get a D.
___I was waiting in his office. Sitting down on the cushioned seat, looking at the hardwood 70’s wall. An orange shag rug was on the floor. The secretary said, “He’ll be seeing you, now.” She was being blunt with me. I hate it when people are blunt with me.
___The principal’s office was more 70’s than the waiting room. This guy is a friggin’ It had the same wall and rug as the previous room, but instead of chairs there were bean bags. All of his things were on a low, Japanese-style table. A typewriter, jumbled up papers, and a coffee cup.
___The walls were unusually clean, like he sprayed them with Pine Sol or something. He had pictures of Tie-Die peace signs on it, too. I wouldn’t be at all surprised if he pulled out a bong and said, “Wanna hit, man?”
___The man was tall and bulk, with a big brown afro and a bushy brown moustache. Unfortunately, he wasn’t the “shaggadelic” carefree guy I thought he would be. “Ah, Mr. Sanders, come in,” he said in his low, stern, voice. “Now to address the matter at hand,” he said. He reached into his suitcase. Here comes the bong, I thought with a grin. But the grin was quickly washed away when he instead pulled out reading glasses. I’m screwed, I thought grimly.
___He opened his filing cabinet, which just seemed to appear out of nowhere, and fingered through the files until he found a certain one. He picked it up and put it on his table. He put his reading glasses on before going any farther. Opening the folder, I saw a picture of myself, goofing off at Photo Day. I wondered if he thought I shouldn’t be laughing now.
___“Glenn Sanders,” he said, “I see that it has been quite a task for you to maintain passing grades.”
___I nodded my head in shame. It was the worst kind of shame. The kind that you knew you ruined your life.
___He started again, “But it seems for your last three Sophomore years, you could not obtain them.”
___I knew what was coming.
___“You have nothing else to amount to in High School. Your life will lead you nowhere, and there’s no way you can make up for it. The only other time I would like to see you in this school is if you are working as a janitor, or proved me wrong. Both of which,” he had to add on, “I doubt you will even get close to being.”
___I rose, fighting back my tears, and mumbled my farewell. I now knew I’d never amount to anything, period. My live was on a downward slope before, but shit.

Thank you for the review. And I thought I used a couple of repetitive words, but that's it. Nonetheless I'll get someone to read it.

Hey man, i too want to write professionally and i hope you do post some of your stuff. I used to have a hard time with grammar also, but if i can find the time to sit down and spend an hour editing... i usually can demolish all my grammar mistakes to few or even none.

Understandable, i just don't want any flame wars in here. It is a positive enviroment and Manic is a good guy with a sarcastic humour; i am sure he meant nothing by it, but as a joke.

Thankyou for taking the time to respond. IM not sure, but the way you quoted my post, it looks like you think Not Afraid is part of the stanza, it isnt. Or maybe its just how the quote came out. Thanks anyway

Its just the way the quote came out. I know that the not afraid bit wasn't part of that stanza.

And your spelling could use a little work, also. j/k

Welcome to you and Quisty, -noir-

As you said about writing pro, I'm looking to that avenue as well, so that makes three of us (at least) If you feel like passing comment on my work, it starts around page 20 (From Little Acorns, a fantasy tale about a group of friends...)
