Novel and Novella

Posted by WritersBlock - January 5th, 2009


One of my new year's resolution for 2009 is to write a novel. I began writing the other day. Progress is slow, but good. I've found the start to be the hardest part to get right, so, if all goes to plan, once chapter one's finished, it should all slot in to place. It's called "The Wilder Saga", and, if all goes well, one thing I'd love to do is look into getting it published. Even though I've still got a lot to learn about the creative writing business.

Some of you may have seen my story "The Beating Heart of Mr. Lincoln". Well, it's finished now, and you can read it through the following links:
Chapter by Chapter on Newgrounds-
Chapter 1
Chapter 2
Chapter 3
Chapter 4
Chapter 5
In its entirety on Camp North-

That is cool. ^_^ also what kind of mod are you?

Thanks.
And I'm an audio mod.

You say some strange things sometimes...

doesn't matter because SEVEN LEGS

That's not the same picture I drew, I wouldn't make a mistake like that.

The beating heart of mr. lincoln was an awesome read man. Too bad you didn't make it longer though. The ending gets a nice message across, though all the suspense from before lured me into thinking there would be a much bigger plot. Still very awesome though.
LOLOL THAT REMINDS ME OF A STORY I ONCE WROTE.

Can't wait to see what other stories you're coming up with this year :3

Yeah, I know what you mean. Perhaps I should work out the kinks and make it my next novel when the Wilder Saga's done.
You should write something for the writing competition that opens up on the 15th. You should try to write a story in english. :3
Either that or I should learn to speak Netherlands-ish-ian. =P

of course I say strange things, it's the INTERNET infusing my brain with stuff about things like people composed of slime and doing a barrel roll and falcon punch

what about *insert meme here*.
Personally, I find *facepalm* appropriate. :/
Partly because some of your comments have little to no relevance whatsoever to what's going on.
The other random comments, yes, they're relevant.

*tries to think of a way to convey something relevant through odd statements, EPIC FAILS*

nice story you got there, if you're into violence and dark themes

I am into violence and dark themes.

I dislike violence

well, actually I'm ok with the violence, it's the darkness that disturbs me

Reminds you of star wars and Luke's dad.

Let's both learn how to write a story in muslim.

Agreed.
It'll be our new New Year's Resolution.

let the hate flow through you!

...

this explains why the only Star Wars thing which I saw and didn't like was the last bit of Revenge of the Sith

I loved it all.

Havn't read your blogposts in . . . months. Nice to see some literary works, will read through it someday when time allows. I promised myself to get a book published this year too, good luck with the resolution!

Let me know how that goes. I'm currently about half way through my first chapter, and I've got to say, just from that I've learned a hell of a lot. It took 3 or 4 attempts on the first page before I realised that my approach was all wrong. ;D

I catnapped your bed.

I love you.

No, not my... not my bed! You heartless bastard.

I'm sorry, I just gave my last one to the guy in my profile picture. He needed it badly...
