Default Why dont you write a story?
I was wondering, why more people haven't attempted writing new stories. Lazyness, lack of imagination, or did you just not know about the forum?

Please get involved and make a story, you could win something!

At least you said.
Can I ask, has anyone actually read any parts of any of the stories?

Although I'm interested in journalism in the future, I'm not really interested in storywriting. I'd post some of my friend's novel he's currently writing but I doubt he'd want me to

As I said elsewhere, the season six Mystical Realms final episode has been posted.

If anyone wants to do their own storyline set in my Mystical Realms franchise, let me know so I can give any needed background.

Meanwhile I have other projects before I can get back to my franchise.

I'm a writer, and although i do write fiction, i prefer to write lyrics (I have like. 3 notebooks full)

Any fiction I do write tends to end up malexmale, which i'm sure most forum users wouldn't be interested in.

I love writing, but most of the stuff I write are scripts and screenplays to film in my media course. I'd like to try my hand at novels and stories in the future but at the moment i'm too busy.

I have two ideas in embryo, related to my Mystical Realms franchise (sort of), but at the moment I am preparing a presentation for 13 April, which will be entitled 38 Years on - Spiritual Lessons of Apollo 13 which means scripting in word and then transfer to PowerPoint and trying to get movie clips to embed.

then I can get back to my writing here

At least it gives others a chance

If anyone remotely cares, I have started my spin of Mystical Realms tale, or possible season seven, not sure on that one as it is early days.

Am currently down in Hampshire for a season, so am using my laptop which seems to have gone unstable wrt Office 2003
