Writer's Dump

Everyone has been writing about their old stories, so I'll just jump in the bandwagon.

Note: I can edit the blog templates to include pictures and make it look less squished. Comment if you want something done, I'll see what I can do.

I've been writing since middle school mainly, but none of my works from there remain in written form, anything that was significant now sits in a dusty corner of my memory until something reminds me I actually thought of it. High school is when it mostly started and I discovered the wonders of RP (role-playing), which is basicly you and several dozen other people taking turns making a story in 3rd person. All my original ideas are in several tiny notebooks that I drag around with me everywhere.

WRITERS! Always bring something to write on! Who knows when the raving rabid plot bunnies will get you?!

This list is more or less in chonological order.

Heeeeey~ I'm trustworthy, most of the time.

Tara C said...

What about the story we're supposed to be writing together?

Anonymous said...

I've been plotting. I know where you left off but I'm not sure how to mesh the two stories together. Maybe we should blog it out? xD

Tara C said...

That'd be interesting. What me and Ellen do is spend sessions on our emails unsnagging parts.
SO, Acey's going to get kidnapped, and taken away. Sekaar goes to rescue her, and then our characters meet. SHe'll get kidnapped soon. In the meantime, I guess you can start writing to set up your characters and the world outside Acey's little village.

Alrighty then, I can work with that.

Tara C said...

By the way, what does plot count mean?

Tara C said...

Oh, once you get some of it done, send it to me!

Plot count means how many different stories are attached to a certain idea.
