Finally, a thread after my own heart! I hope you don't mind I post in here. A lot. I'm trying to get back into reading.

So I recently bought a whole bunch of books to read for this new upcoming semester. First is The Hunger Games.... Halfway through, it's actually really cool so far!

Anya, I read the Sword of Truth back in, like, 7th grade... I remember NOTHING about it, and didn't continue with the series, but I don't remember it being bad. I dunno why I never continued with it.

EDIT: I've also read the Warrior Cats series. I stopped in the second "series" to it, but I really really loved it until then. I just kinda got bored at that point.

Internet always soaks up reading time for me, too... It's almost depressing that it does. I'd just rather surf the internet than read these days. And I call myself a writer.

Bleh.

I plan on writing actual BOOKS. I put a thread about it in the creative forum (though no one read it ).

I tried writing a fanfic once or twice as a joke. It never ended well. I still kinda wanna write a Harry Potter fanfic called "No One Likes Ravenclaw".

I need to start working on the Wheel of Time again... but I got SO MANY things to read, you don't even know! xD I stopped last time at, like, book three. And I remember so little about it I might as well start again.

Same here. I need to get out of my current job and I think this is the way. I've never been confident in what I write until a few months ago. I've always written for me but now I need to write for my readers, which is a whole different ballgame. Just finished the rough draft of my first book at around 50K words. I'm writing for young adults, mainly because that is my style. I really, really hope it works out. I've always wanted to do this, but too scared and unsure on how. Good luck with your book series. I saw the thread and I'll have a read once I get some quiet time.

I'm sure it'll work out great! Good luck on getting it published, and thanks. Read at your own leisure, I'm pretty sure that's a really old rough draft of stuff. I may remake a thread for my book series, or edit it with updated info. We should all make threads in the creativity forum for our books.
