Mroning, Van. Hope you don't mind if I call you that. Welcome to the random thread >^.^<
watch out for carrots and smoteners

Writing in author's style, I'd probably go with Rick Riordan, mainly because he manages to put so much snark into a medium that doesn't transfer tone easily.

Suzanne Collins. She wrote hunger games too.

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.

Welcome, new people! Looks like you've been warned about carrots already c:

If you had to write a story in another author's style, who would you choose and why?
I'm gonna have to agree with Bucket on Rick Riordan, or maybe the author of Sufficiently Advanced Magic (Andrew Rowe, I think?). I try to build humor into my writing, but the level of snark they both use is far beyond my level.

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.

If you had to write a story in another author's style, who would you choose and why?
Is it edgy enough to say Lovecraft? That is who I am going with anyway. I find my writing style differs in between too simple to borderline verbiage. I have a long ways to go in means of perfecting my craft, so I have been reading a lot. Many of my friends have found inspiration in his writings, and I basically worship their writing styles as is.

Either Marie Lu or Rick Yancey. Or both. Yancey implements comedy into his work so effortlessly and in a way that really just makes sense to the storyline. Marie Lu makes heckin’ lengthy desrcriptions that actually don’t take anything away from the story. I know that sometimes descriptions can get a bit boring, dragging on about how the walls catch the sunlight, but she’s very good at replicating images and making them come to life.

Greetings newbies.

Hi! Stay away from Carrots!

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

I um... Hm.. Maybe James Patterson? He has a pretty good style and writes first person really well. Though Maximum Ride is the only series of his that i've read and a little of the... Daniel series that he has.

So yeah.. Most likely James Patterson. Or the Woman who writes the Gregor the Overlander Series. She's good too.

I love that series! It's written by Susanne Collins (not sure if I spelt it right), she's also the one who wrote the Hunger games

Probably Tolkien tbh. Listening to Dad reading lotr to my younger brother is really awesome and love the style. So yeah, Tolkien ^-^

Hey, welcome <3

why is everybody typing in strikes

Stieg Larsson, because he puts plots twists in so perfectly, and he's so to-the-point, and original, and genius, but I will never, ever in my existence be nearly as good as him, so that's flickin not achievable- okay, I'll shut up now.

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.
