Story Board Brainstorming & 'Mentor' Thread

This is awesome. And while I already have a beta reader, its still really cool, because a lot of people here have kickass ideas but don't know how to form them properly. yay!

and i think my beta reader (cinder24) would be really into this thread *runs off to tell rhiana)

HA! I submitted another story. It has nothing to do with GD, though. I wanted to expand.

It's been buzzing around in my head for days now and I finally did it!

I know this might sound completelly stupid...but I need help with some drunken typing for my story because I still haven't learned drunken English, I swear it's not as eassy as it sounds.

Where is Rose when you need her?

Right here.

What do you think of this idea? I'm working on a new story called Billie Joe And The Other Woman. The other woman is Christina Scabbia from Lacuna Coil.

Sounds like a good idea Queen Gothic Chick. If you ever need any input, just PM me.

Thanks!! I'll keep that in mind.

Don't you hate it when people call you stupid for something you like to do...like writing?

God, this girl is pissing me off. She saw one of my stories on the computer and called me stupid.

She hates reading..

..Because she's dyslexic and can't read worth a damn. -_-

I guess some people aren't intelligent enough to grasp the concept of imagination...

I hate that. My parents are the same way. They call my writing stupid. It makes me feel that my writing is worth nothing.

I think everyone's parents do that, simply because it's about Green Day. I'm getting a book published in a few months though, so my parents will likely think different.

I don't think this is on topic though.

Congradulations!! Hopefuly I'll get my story that I'm working on published some day.

Wow. I wish I could get something published.

Good for you.

Congratulations! What kind of book are you getting published, if I may ask..

Pickle:

I need an outside opinion on No Particular Reason on a way, way future chapter. This story builds up, has a breaking point then goes back down. Then it has to rebuild back up and during the rebuilding there's some stuff I want another opinion on.

I'm up for giving a new opinion...LOL... seeing as how you saw a WAY future chapter/story of mine

I don't know if this is the right place to ask this, but I need a little bit of help with a story I'm writing. A character is aboutto get a tattoo, and I was wondering if anyone could describe how it feels.

A tattoo feels like a big sting over and over again. The one on my lower back hurt a HELL of a lot worse than the one on my shoulder...

AFTERWARDS though... the site is tender and anything brushing up against it hurts like a bitch...

Okay, thanks for the help.

ok I have a question. I think this is where I should ask it? ANyways, I have a couple stories that I don't update anymore, and don't plan on it. Is there a way someone can delete the stories I want deleted?

Okay..

I'm thinking of writing a one-shot based on The West Memphis Three event that occured in the early ninties, but with a little American Idiot behind it.

I've been hovering around this idea for quite some time now, but I'm still not sure if I want to continue.

IF I write it, I'll call Prevent This Tragedy, Handguns For Hearts, or West Memphis, Please. I got the idea from a song, by Alkaline Trio, called Prevent This Tragedy.


Prevent This Tragedy


Here we are again with handguns for hearts
They had a master plan, wanted to tear us apart
Nothing to hold. All hope deleted
Our demise has been completed now
Nowhere left to go but

Down, the flames of hell they give me hope
I Drown, in oceans of this tragic part of
Town, where nothing's heard for miles but the
Sound of children wishing they were safely underground

We are the walking dead, we hold this ghost in our arms
We take our daily breath and thank our unlucky stars
Tried to get by on bread and water
Craving blood poured from the altar now
Not much left to do but

Drown in flames of miscommunication
Down and out and often in search of someone
Proud to translate what we truly dream
About, as we lay in this bed thinking out loud

I'm screaming Uncle, Mercy me
And my broken telepathy
For I'm left with nothing but this
Bloodless river bank, West Memphis
Please, I'm begging you to stop praying for me

Down, the flames of hell they give me hope
I Drowned in oceans of this tragic part of
Town, where nothing's heard for miles but the
Sound of children wishing they were safely underground

Any thoughts on this?
