stories about undies... (btw, am I wrong when I say there are loads and heeps of really cute girls in Finland? I was amazed by them when I visited the beautiful (and flat) country...) |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
oh yeah... that's right... well it's real early here and I just woke up from passing out last night... Bananas may rule, but banana liquer... it's not any good. |

do you have any typed on your comp? if so you should post some O_o |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
guess I screwed up the story =( maybe you should start a new one? Perhaps not involving any violence at all? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
How do you know there was violence? Just because she was dead.. doesn't mean there was violence.. YOU messed that up... NOW FIX IT!!!@#@!!@@!##! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well... I felt that the story had a very big feeling of repressed violence... sorry... that's just what it felt like, then I explained why that feeling was there, but twisted it way too far. |

Well see my idea was that the grandmother had bone cancer and couldn't take the suffering anymore so she went in her bathtub and swallowed a bottle of pills to comit suicide... then her granddaughter found her.. and her granddaughter never appreciated her and acted cold and annoyed with her cause she'd have to take care of her on saturdays and sundays... (their family had a routine of going to take care of the grandmother on specific days) then when she found her dead the amount of guilt emotionally killed her. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ah, well then it was repressive. But it was no way good/right to twist that nice story the way I did. When I write stories, I don't write like I did with this one... but then I don't write for the messageboard ;) you sure know the minds of old folks. |

A novella is longer than a short story and shorter than a novel -- usually, 15-20,000 words. It's all a bit hazy, as there's a bit more to it than that - some short stories can be 20,000 and not be classed as a novella. |

|
|
can you post any you've written? if they are on your comp..? anon - muahaha... kntting is a skillful sport |

the last shortstory I wrote was actually for school... but it's in Swedish so it is no use for you. it was real good though, in certain ways, interesting story + it had many levels... It was based on a true story, but reading the story - it's not something you're going to realize. |

I sometimes write weird 'improvised' stories, when I'm very tired. They're in french, though... 's one. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Damn, it's in French, as I've just noticed you already said ! |
||||||||
|
|

|
struggling through my stories, Corrupted? :P |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
for me, and I guess it's the same for everybody else, you write stuff better in your first language, then your 2nd... but if I translate it from Swedish - English it's just as good I guess, it's just that it's not the same thing writing directly into english and when I've done my writing in Swedish, I really have no need to translate it. Everybody who reads it are of Swedish origin anyway. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
no. I've started reading the first one... but it's soo long! I don't have time to read it all in one sitting. But ill let you kno when im done it... :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yep, they ain't no 800 word stories ! around 15,000 for the first two, coupla thousand words (maybe) for Magick |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
But so far I think you're a grewat writter.. very very good infact. |
||||||||
|

i'm a writer. it's been a while since i wrote short stories - i'm more of a poet actually. i took creative writing for three semesters in college so i can honestly say i have a competent knowledge of the cfrat. i might post a story... if you're nice to me. |

Oh God - don't take creative writing courses ! All they do is rob your talent ! |
