I've always consider writing as a side hobby, I've always been told that it is something that I can't turn into a career and so for a long time I kept thinking to myself was what the point of writing. But of course I knocked myself out of that bad mentality and after doing some deep digging I finally found the materials I once had forgotten.
Actually I tell a lie I'm missing just one page and can't find it anywhere which has really annoyed me. But I'll hopefully get over that...JUST. Anyways, I once had a plan for 16 novels, and several short stories and other types of stories in the works before I left everything to go to University. I spent years looking at tips on how to write novels and stories, how to do brainstorms and plant ideas into stories so that there was pace and tension throughout the book. I've read lots of novels because I do love to read, and I even took a Creative Writing course at my Secondary School once during Summer hoildays, but of course that was okay according to my mother because they were free. :D
After doing all of this research, I found myself still at the beginning stages for my novels. The furthest I ever got was one chapter, and after that I gave up. Yes I know writing is hard and it is like everything else in live you need to work on it, and while I've been told many times that I am lazy no one has ever really told me that I'm good. Oh I have been told I can do if I just try, but when I try no one has really ever told me what I'm good at. Now this 2000 word section about me doesn't seem long enough as I am rambling on like this, so I think I'll stop now and just come to my closing statement.
I actually came about this site by accident but I'm glad I did, hopefully with people's encouragement I'll finally start posting my writing again. Though I will warn you I am only a beginner writer, and suffer from bad spelling so Don't say I didn't warn you. :D
