 | July 16th, 2006 at 03:55am Handguns For Hearts:HavingAGreenDay:Handguns For Hearts:HavingAGreenDay:Handguns For Hearts:A thought crossed my mind the other day..
What about using images to write? 
Ever think like that? Do you mean puting images in the story if you want? Or looking at photos for inspiration?
I think an option to have photos in your story is a good one. It would help people to visualize more I think. I've already done some writing with pictures, 'tis a shame it can't be done here...
I mean like looking at them for inspiration. Like if you want to write about the ocean, you could look at a picture of the ocean..
Sometimes I just pretend like I'm there though.
BTW, I had a dream about your story. It turned into a movie. A good one. O_O Seriously. Yeah, it is a good way to find inspiration. Sometimes my inspirations just come from going out and actually seeing the things I want to write about. 
That is so cool. I'm flattered, yo. PM me more details? 
Yeah, the places that will be mentioned later in my story are real because I've been there and have picture that I took.
Sure thing, yo.  Is the place Green Day related?
You are almost as cool as Mr. Cool. Almost. |

| July 16th, 2006 at 02:12pm Oh goodness. I'd be scared to have my work critiqued.
But, eh. The most recent parts written for my latest story are gone because of my computer dying out on me.
 WTF. |

| July 16th, 2006 at 02:17pm Oh that sucks! I've had that done to me before. I thought I was going to die. Was it all of your work or did you have some saved in your e-mail or disks?
Warning got all screwed up. It somehow got this weird formating thing done to it and every bit of punctuation had big long symbols for it that I had to go back and redo for about 6 chapters that weren't posted. It was hell! |

| July 16th, 2006 at 07:40pm I've got this idea for a story. Everything in it, well most of it, is alot about me. Like the town, the girl, the plot, everything. Just an idea...trying to 'write what I know.'
PM me for more details...I suppose no one.  |

Damn. No, I dont have anything saved.
I MAY have the next part hidden on my other computer somewhere, since that is where I typed it up. But unforunately that computer is hay-wire right now as well.
 We'll see, unforunately ;_; And I've kept my readers waiting long enough. |

Moose... always send an email with the story as an attachment to one of your online internet based emails accounts (yahoo, excite etc) that way you have a copy saved iin cyber space in case of system failure 
but once again... it's like closing that barn door... |

| July 17th, 2006 at 09:15pm Hmm...I can't make a thread about this because I haven't submitted it. I wrote this thing called The Burning House, Michelle you've read it...
I don't whether to continue it.
I don't know how to explain the plot in a nutshell...
It's like, half made up, half real. |

Did you base it around your life?
Or use real experiences/situations Green Day has been through? |

What you have is excellent.. You just need to decide if you want it as a stand alone 1 shot thing or develop it more and make a story out of it.
Either way, it will work |

It's based around my life. It's not necessarily ABOUT me, it's just alot of it has to do with me. I figure I should I 'write what I know'. The title, The Burning House is just about burning down your past.
The character is alot like me...the town she lives in is real, I just changed the name. The place she works, her house, basically almost everything is real. I even have photos of the place.  |

I don't show anyone either. I don't show the really personal ones...
I'm scared of showing anyone. When they say it's perfect...I get bothered. I think I just LOOK for a flaw in it so I'll have an excuse to make it better, otherwise I won't be motivated. |
