*Messed up an accidentally edited his previous post* [:'(] Aww, i'm sorry! accidental editing is never fun... but the "cancel" button is always good! Guess who? Trinki Bell!!! /me is very excited for tomorrow's mini-release 1. quote:
Now give the same answer in as many words as you like. Ok, I personally daydream a lot and most of my creative process comes out of daydreaming. Random events can become long stories, certain songs inspire poetry (or alternately, a whole new story line...), reading something will make me want to write a script based on it, ect. Its really just what comes to mind at first. Then I go in and add descriptions, flesh out the story, change things, make it longer and better, ect. Then I proofread and repeat the previous steps. Thats about what I do. That being said, any advice to a fledgling writer? Of course! Read a lot of well-know literature... like Tolkien for instance. Dont just read for the story/plot though. Pay attention to how he weaves the story, how he describes things, how the dialogue is written, ect. Write some stuff and get help from others. Dont be afraid of criticism and learn from your mistakes! Also, always read something outloud when you are proofreading. You're more likely to catch the mistakes. 2. quote:
How many books do you own? Lost count a long time ago. I have two bookshelfs full, two storage shelfs, two shelfs here at college, and some in storage in my attic at home. I have no clue how many. *Glances furtively at his piddly pile of books and feels insignificant* *patpats* Dont worry, I've been termed as a "book-aholic" or "bookworm"... so dont feel too bad! 3. quote:
What book am I reading right now? hmmm, random guess, but is it The Wizard of Oz? Actually, I'm reading The Dark Tower, but seeing as there are Wizard of Oz references in there, I'm going to give you that one. Hmmm, havent read that one. I'll have to look into it... 4. quote:
Hypothetically, what would be the name of your DF guild? All Fairies Alliance! (aka, learning all our magics, causing mischief, and taking over the world!) Why do I get the feeling that I would not belong? *Resists urge to sing 'Greeny and the Brain.'* HAHAHA! OMG, i loved "Pinky and the Brain"! It was SO hilarious! 5. I believe you mentioned being in college. What are you there for? Specifically, are you attempting to turn your writing towards more lucrative ends, or it writing a hobby for you and nothing more? Yep! I'm a Music Education major. I just enjoy writing, but I love kids and music more. :D Writing is more than a hobby, its a outlet for a lot of things (including my overactive imagination). someday I might try to publish a book though. :D
