Who here is a writer?
October 31, 2013 at 6:56 pm
Either serious fulltime writer, or hobbyist. I know I am and I see people on here mention it all the time
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.

I have written two books of a trilogy. The first I self-published through Amazon.

A better question would be... 'who here is NOT a writer'. Because lurkers are at least an applicable answer, in that case.
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day

Writing is my hobby, seriously, and I seriously write as a hobby. I'm serious.

My writing privileges have been suspended due to misuse of diction; that, and (may I add) - using way, too, many, commas. Plus I'm not creative and I lack a sense of humor, so... yeah.

I write for both money and fun.
This is a good time for this thread, because NaNoWriMo begins tomorrow. I'm in; is anybody else?
Here's my NaNo page. We can be writer buddies.

I write as a hobby. It will be my career if I ever complete a screenplay and manage to sell it. If I can complete one, I should be able to complete another.

You should join up, then. It's a great way to teach yourself how to produce at a steady rate.
