Writewights

[Elenka]

When we eventually get this up, can I be an assistant manager? Please?

[samwiselvr2008]

What kind of sight will this be? And will we all be able to add stuff to it when we want? Like, say some websites are updated ect. by sertan people, sooooo.

[Fred Baggins]

Well, we should have a fanfic area, and maybe a forum, or something so we can post if we have some work of our's published. O, maybe lubyla, we can find out how CoE did there journals and use that. And I think someone said something about a place for artwork, or just plain pictures, which is cool with me if it is with the rest. These are some ideas to start on anywho. Maybe even have a newsletter.

[samwiselvr2008]

A picture/art work place would be cool with me. How about a place to sher VERY good, but nonpublished work? They would have to be completed of course, and spell checked ect., you'll also have to typ it all onto the computer, but that would be fun! You could see what others think about it, since I'm not sher how to publish any work of mine, and it probally isn't that good anyhow.

[Silverstripe]

And, yes, we definitely should have some "managers."

Maybe we should have one area specifically for fanfics, another for poems, and one for short stories/novels that are NOT fanfics?

[Fred Baggins]

That's kinda what i meant by...o wait nevermind. I did have that in thought, just not in words! We should make it a community, so that ppl sign up...that way, we won't have everyone in the world saying "I have something published!" ya know what I mean? But still have stuff that is avaliable to non-members, like if they wanna send us there fanfics, or poems. NOT, methinks novles, that would be going a little to far. But...do you follow me?

[samwiselvr2008]

I agree! So, how is the sight going? Figure out where your going to make one at yet?

[Fred Baggins]

Not quite yet, it hasn't been discussed to much yet, and lubyla's out of town, until tonight. But, hopefully, if my sore throat goes away by tonight, I can go celebrate New Years at her house, and We will discuss it, and maybe ever 'reserve' a place for it.

[Adrian Baggins]

Make it so that you can add to your own story and I do ask so that it is easier to keep up with that we ask all tolkien trail members who join to use their tolkien trail username. This would make it easier for me to talk to y'all. Also on the add to story part is that I don't want to waiyt till I am done with my story to post it and I don't want to have to type it all. I probibly will just copy and paste it.

[Fred Baggins]

Ok, Ab, if possible, it will be done. Unfortuantly can't go over to her house tonight but will call and talk to her about it.

Calling all Writewights! This is a thread for everyone who loves to write, but tends to get a bit carried away when they're into a story, and winds up working on it long into the night ... or all through the night! I call this "suffering from Writewrath" or "becoming a Writewight." So come on in and discuss the many joys and frustrations of being a Writewight.

When I get writing my book, I frequently lose track of the time. I'm the last one up, because I like to work on writing my book at night. I have two brothers and two sisters, and our house is generally too noisy for me to concentrate very easily.

At night . . . quiet. There is peace, and I can simply wrap myself up in the book I'm writing. I look at my watch; it's 10:30. I look at my watch again a little while later . . . oh my goodness! It's 11:30. Oh well, I want to finish writing this chapter . . . (Finishes the chapter and looks at his watch again) Ahem. 1:45, rauther late.

I'm not an all-nighter though .

Frustrations? I don't have too many frustrations any more, though I used to. Nowadays when I run into a scene in my book that I don't want to write, I just wait for a few days until I'm in the mood. Then I write it, and write it hard! It's the same with me with reports. I need to get it all finished while I'm in the mood. If the mood passes, then I'm left with a half completed idea that is difficult to get back into.

Yay! Another Writewraith! I like to write at night, too, because there really ARE just too many distractions during the day. For professional writers, now... but they are considered to be working when they're writing. Most of us aren't that lucky.

[Lubyla]

Yup, I write at night, hey! that rymed. Write at Night Write at Night Write at Night ok, I'm done.

[Silverstripe]

LOL, Lubyla!

I'll have to try chanting "Write at Night" sometime and see if it does anything.

[Fred Baggins]

I write whenever I get an idea. HAPPY NEW YEAR WRITEWRAITHS!

[Lubyla]

Write Write Write Write Type Type Type Type Write Write Write Write Type Type Type Type Write Write Write Write Type Type Type Type Write Write Write Write Type Type Type Type ok, con ye tell I have writers block...arg! And this is REALLY bad, 'cause its fer a report due to Mr.Durr on Monday!!!!

[Adrian Baggins]

Destractions don't bug me they just give me ideas. Weird huh? Then again being an only child the only destractions I have are my 2 cats, 2 dogs, my dad and stepmom or mom and stepdad, and 1 annoing bird. Other then that I can write while I listen to the T.V. and not get caught in the show or lose my train of thought in my writing or I can talk on the phone with my 1 of my BFF's(best friend forever) and listen to her storys and type at the same time without loseing my place. Pretty cool huh? I can write almost any time I want to. I still like to write at night but my stepmom catches me and makes me go to bed. Dern the stupid fact that I don't have a laptop!(if I did I wouldn't have to quit writing I could write in bed till I got sleepy.)

[Elenka]

I type at night, because its so-o-o-o much easier writing at night when my parents have already gone to bed and therefore cannot distract me every eleven seconds with new chores and other bothers.

[Adrian Baggins]

Did I mention that I must be the weirdes Tolkien Fan and Tolkien Fan Fiction writer on the planet?

[Gwaimir Windgem]

I like to write, as well; I am working on my secondary world, and have thought up several plots for it. I've tried writing actual stories, but I don't think it's a good idea until I've fully developed my secondary world.

I have written a few, though; one I submitted to an international poetry contest, and it is semi-finalist meaing it will be published in a book (I think towards the end of 2003), as well as being selected for an audio album. I might even win, who knows?
