Any budding authors among us?

<< < (4/13) > >>

The extra letter:
I'd like to think of myself as a writer/poet/whatever, but I don't really have the ability to back up my enthusiasm or aspirations.

I *have* written some pretty atrocious angsty poetry, though.

POTTERPORN!

Gosh, I love writing.
But, not as much as I enjoy other things.  It takes up too much time.

ThePQ4:
Oh god, you found it.
How mortifying!

--- Quote from: TheFuriousWombat on 22 Feb 2007, 14:22 ---I write, or begin to write, all sorts of poems and short stories on a fairly regular basis. I've had some of the former published in some local literary magazines and such but nothing big. I'm generally very unhappy with everything I write so i rarely even show it to other people. Even my gf, whom I trust with everything, has read almost nothing of what I write. It's not that it's overly personal or anything, I just don't think it's generally good enough for other people to read.

--- End quote ---
You never will unless you allow yourself to open up and accept criticism from people who know what they are talking about, either.  It's something I've had to learn the hard way.

Anyway,

Any body know a decent non-Blog place that will host stories?  My first revision is all done.

Morokrat:
I'm a...performance-author? Is that how you say it if you want to feel educated?
Well, anyway, I am a Poetry-Slammer. Started slamming in December 05. So far, I love every day of it, every single performance, every town. Went to the GIPS, the German Internatiol Poetry Slam, started in the Youth(U20)-Category.

Does that count as being a budding author?
