Yup, I spend most of my online time writing. I consider this group a writing group, too. What we do is classified as Interactive Fiction. So in a sense we're all Writers here.
This is why I ask everyone to use good spelling and grammer, etc.
I write a lot. About four chapters a day in fact, way outside of this place. I'm also working on two novels.
So yup. I'm a writer (amongst many other things). _________________ Those who try their best are never at their worst.

::raises eyebrow:: Somehow I have a problem taking a writer seriously who writes the word "lose" as "loose" (one of my pet peeves lol).
The writers were pretty good for teenagers, but I'm hoping as they mature they get out of the writing traps that seem to plague that age group. Over using words, repetitious phrasing, etc.
Not too shabby, though! Definately worth a read and both authors will probably do very well for themselves one day. _________________ Those who try their best are never at their worst.

also,for lack of a better place to put it (or so i figure anyway) sorry about that,i thought when you said the story is closed that you ment just that part no the entire arc part i can be dense sometimes expecially when i get tired as i am now _________________ We of the unicorn clan are the best horsemen in the land,our horses are our lives,we live as one,we fight as one,we die as one.

Practise makes perfect.
I'm not sure when the whole lose vs loose thing started, but it's gotten very bad lately. 'Lose' is when you lose something as in "If I don't put my money in my pocket I may LOSE it."
'Loose' is when something is not tight i.e. "If I don't tighten my horse's girth correctly, it will be LOOSE."
Don't worry about mistakes here, live and learn yanno. _________________ Those who try their best are never at their worst.

Equestra,i feel in a writing mood right now,i was wondering if it would be ok if i wrote a backstory for the village,why its there how long and stuff like that,if you dont want me to just say so and i wont write it but if you do,let me know anything that you want me to put in,such as how long the village has bin around,who founded it and such like that,i mean it is your village to begin with we are just making our home here _________________ We of the unicorn clan are the best horsemen in the land,our horses are our lives,we live as one,we fight as one,we die as one.
