*Stumbles in to this random thread*

I have found my people

[hops into this thread and sees the pun on the first page]

I believe I have found the right place to sigh my woes.

I am currently under a writer's and artist's block. It hurts.

Helloelloello! As the others have said, beware of carrots and smoteners! c;

Aaah, rip, Wolf. It does hurt :'/ *pats*

Okay, but I really like carrots. However, I have glasses so it's a myth that they are good for your eyes. I cannot give up carrots, they are so sweet and tasty.

STAY ALIVE
R.I.P.
'TIS YOUR FUNERAL M8 D:

why is everybody typing in strikes

strikes are the new bold

Hi, hello.
I write a lot of original fiction, all fantasy. I write a bit of fanfic too, but it's only really Riverdale related.
If you want to take a look at my writing here's a few links! I enjoy constructive criticism, but please be gentle with me. I'm sensitive eheh: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1BgF ... sp=sharing https://docs.google.com/document/d/1nXW ... sp=sharing

I'm currently reading Eragon and I'd like to be able to write like Christopher Paolini someday! His writing is gorgeously descriptive.
Is there a book anyone has read that left an unpleasant taste in their mouth? A Greyhound of a Girl was bland was unrealistic in my opinion, though I enjoyed the concept.

Kia ora, welcome along! I'll be sure to check your stuff out as soon as I can C:

And yes, I most certainly have! Great Expectations left me bored and depressed. I guess, because of the title, I had great expectations that the author failed to meet XD


guys
guys, help
do my interests sound salty??
I meant to be half joking half serious, but me Mum thought it sounded agro....
I've changed it up a bit, but can I just do some crowd-sourcing here? XD

[Aliria]

@Ranger They sound fine to me!

Adding to the other authors thing, I'd also love to write like Lemony Snicket because Lemony Snicket is amazing. Unfortunately, any writing in that style is going to be immediately recognized as someone trying to copy him, so it's not really a good style to borrow.

[TheSongOfTheStars]

@ Ranger, I always thought it was kinda funny,


...
I'm dead.
My writing is dead.
Can we have nano in December? That should give me enough time to resuscitate.

pft... I wish. I need the extra time to update my fanfic before I start writing for nano.
wHY IS MY SCHEDULE SO CROWDED LORD HELP ME

[winged-backpack]

Hello all new people! I'm Dev, have fun and be careful of carrots!

@Ranger Your interests are fine, its quite funny tbh. Never seen anyone so specific about the word "kiwi"

@Song when you say dead, do you mean a writer's block or you've just written so much you can't actually write anymore? Either way, I feel you. I've lost momentum with 10,000 Doors, but I'm trying to work on it ^^'

[TheSongOfTheStars]

I've got writer's block, but I've been forcing myself to work on a story so I'm exhausted and I'm afraid I won't have enough energy to work on Nano.

[emu-tionallyunstable]

Thank you for the welcomes!

I suffer from extreme procrastination, but I think I'm gonna try to do Nano this year. Every other year, I'm always like "Maybe later"

[dogbrain]

I always see Nano pop up on my Wattpad, in my brain I put it on the back-burner and then forget about it. Sure, I could write a novel in a month but would it be qualitative? No. Right now, I am working on the very first chapter of my novel that will span a long while. Ahh, there I go reminding myself about it.

I am a mess, oml.

[winged-backpack]

@song
I can only recommend that you maybe take it easy before nano, just do some planning and character design, then you'll rekindle your energy for it

[The Worst Username]

Goodness gracious, sorry I keep disappearing on you guys. Also, I was busy being an Official Certified Italian making dinner--have any of you tried to make meatballs? My family has this recipe where we mash eggs, wet crusty bread, meat, parmesan, and spices together in a bowl with our hands, we form the mixture into balls, then we fry the balls in oil. It sounds gross but it tastes really good what am I talking about

hello, hello

I am a very lazy writer. :')
Not good, since I am planning on doing NaNoWriMo.
So yay, more lazy writers to chat with. <3

Hey, this is kinda late, but welcome! (Avoid carrots and smoteners--trust me, man, they're not good.) Good luck on Nano. What'll you be writing?

I have so much to do and write about and instead I'm here looking at memes on google

This is the most relatable thing every posted to the lazy writers.

@Steve

Holy heck for some reason I really like your handwriting
What's going on? And what are you going to do if an innocent classmate finds your murder plot?

@Macromolecule

*curtsies low* welcome back to Lazy Writers for however long you happen to stay here, sir

Hey. Just wanted to pop in and thank those who answered my question a while back. I haven’t been posting much here, my apologies. This thread moves too fast for me, haha ^^’

pffft, same here honestly

If you had to write a story in another author's style, who would you choose and why?

I reaalyyy don't know; there's a lot of fantastic styles out there. I'd probably choose to write in a style that's nothing like my own droning, flowery prose...I can't think of any specific author, though.

I have found my people

Heyo! Strange to say, anni said almost exactly the same thing when they joined the thread...

Well, assuming there's no conspiracy here, welcome to the thread! We come here to dork about our writing and/or hide from smoteners/carrots. You'll fit right in.

@Wolf (also dood, do you have a nickname?)

Goodness, so many new people! Hope there's enough piles of laundry and/or stacks of library books for everyone to sit on. Well, welcome to the thread anyhow. Please avoid smoteners and carrots. (You're an artist, too? That's really cool--same here, and I bet there's at least a few more.)

why is everybody typing in strikes

if i had to guess it's because we're a bunch of awkward nerds, all of whom who want to say something, but we're also kind of embarrassed to say it. or because we want to be funny? idk man

Is there a book anyone has read that left an unpleasant taste in their mouth?

Hey, welcome! Avoid carrots and smoteners--also, who's that redheaded woman in your avatar and signature? I swear I've seen her somewhere.

Anyways, I've read my fair share of books that involve abusive/incestuous relationships, and books involving animal abuse/death, which just...aggh. I hate those books so much.

do my interests sound salty??[/quote]

Not at all! I think it's kind of silly and fun, actually, not aggressive in the least. But hey, even if someone did think it was salty, who cares? It's your interests box.

Code: Select all

[b]Do you do any other arts besides writing (e.g., visual art, knitting, photography, acting, et cetera)[/b]

I do lots of traditional drawing, but I don't really do any other arts besides.

Code: Select all

[b]How far do you think you're going to get into Nano?[/b]

haha I'm the pessimist who's not even going to try (plus school. oh goodness gracious.)
