Getting Started

This year i'm determined to fullfill a lifetime dream. To write a book. Even if no one else ever reads it i'm making it my goal to write. I choose to write in the paranormal-romance genre because that is what interests me. I'm a big fan of Sherilyn Kenyon, Christine Feehan, Janet Chapman and Katie MacAlister. Right now i'm in the process of making an outline of my characters and aspects of my story.

I have also decided to start writing and putting it out there for other people to read. I havr no idea what I'm doing, but I do know it's something I enjoy.

So with my decision I came on to this site and started poking around. I found that the people on her are great and very supportive.

I found the Write stuff threads and I have particapated in the writers challenges and got some really good feedback on my stories.

I am also a big fan of the paranormal romance genre and I hope that in a few years of learning. I will one day have a book of my own. But I am also happy just writing for myself.

Good luck with your book and come over to the writers challenge and have some fun.

Hi Lisa,

I was cruising around and saw your post and had to stop by. I want to send my best wishes for a satisfying endeavor to you. I have had writing as a companion in my life from way back in elementary school. I've always used fictional characters as a filter for my own experience. The year I got serious about writing and finished my first book was such a powerful time.

I hope you'll enjoy yourself, learn a lot, and find yourself firmly on the path to success (whatever that means for your journey!).

Cheers,

Ellen

I, too, have started doing some writing

At another time in my life I was doing more writing and than I went back to a fulltime job outside the home. My writing time was drastically reduced to nothing. (After all I still have to read!) I'm trying to reorganize my life and start writing again. I found the Writer's forum--there are some wonderful folks over there. Good luck!
