I'm lazy too. I've been writing this story. It's so immense that I've been writing it for the last 11 years. Spans over 1400 years, 9 worlds... etc etc... but I haven't decided what medium to portray it in yet.

sounds interesting to this guy.

make it a movie or an HBO tv series though, as I'm too lazy to read these days.

(unless hunter thompson comes back to life to sum up the last decade or so)

lmao... It's too long for a movie, even a trilogy. HBO series... I'd need maybe, 11 seasons and about 6 spinoffs with their own set of seasons to tell the entire thing.

I could use funding. If I didn't have distractions like ffxi, work, and stress, I would finish this in a few years. lol

Try an organized writing technique. Helps a lot, you end up banging out writing much faster.

I'm personally going to try the snowflake technique of writing this summer to see if I can bang out a 50~ page story prequel to my novel. Which, like yours, is almost 10 years old at this point.

Same, I have a story in my head, I can't write it down cause its futile, something like....5 Series, a mini movie series, side movies, prequels and an end final loop closing it all together, with it all happening within like 500 years or so with some stuff in the distant past. So I wish you luck sir!

On another note......ughhhhhhhh I feel sick.....

I'd volunteer... but the last time someone offered to let me use their idea to write a book didn't turn out so well. He skimmed it after I was finished and said 'that isn't how I wanted it to go'.

Not doing it again, nope :P

Well it would take me a LONG time to even just jot down the key moments in it all to make it important. Hell, a TIMELINE I would have to adjust all the time cause I forget a lot of it. o.O

The person you did it for was probably not very detailed. Unlike that, I am very detailed with my adventure. It's like... I have all the major and minor events down but it's the in-between these events that lead up to them that messes me up and takes a lot of time. I hate filler.

He wrote out the first page for me, which is what he had in his head and told me to go for it. It was only afterwards he decided to tell me the rest of it...

Ugh, I'm with you on filler...

So don't write "filler". Stop thinking that way, it's pretty *** that you need "filler".

Y'all are aggravating me with your beatin' round bushes and proclaiming how well you know your stories but are just too damn scared to write 'em.

Shut up and write, or stop talkin' bout your stories.

No. I want to prance around the fact that my brain is so fantastically large in terms of capacity so I can prove that no paper will be able to contain my story. Ever. I never heard of anyone getting angry by beating round bushes. I think there's medication for that. Unless they contain Rupees but then again, swing away.

Morning Kaly

Weird n sad morning. On my way to work, I listened to the News Channel half the ride (I am old, I prefer news vs the music playing now a days) and one report was of a college girl found dead in her dorm Monday. There was no definitive reason what caused it but didn't seem to have any foul play either. I usually have some smart *** remark I say to myself but I was like "well that sucks..."

I get to work, and I got a email from our VP addressing the office staff saying that one of our Foreman, had his daughter found dead Monday night in the dorm. I ran quick memory check, yep, his youngest daughter went to the Uni that I heard on radio...

death is all we're really guaranteed. It's just as natural as you & I talking.

the really wierd thing to think about is that if that was you, they'd all go "Oh bummer, poor skull, he was a good guy" then they all just shrugg thier shoulders & go back to work. no week off. no parade. just another squished bug, & the planets spins away with no regard to the fact that a good ole' skull was lost. calling our lifespans a blink in the timeline of the world is a gross overstatement. strange eh?

I agree, that is only thing guaranteed at our birth. I still need to figure out immortality or transferring me to a cloned body (unlikely till they figure out how to solve the Telemere problem, let alone a mind trasnfer) or cyro sleeping me for future. I was born to be a Mech Pilot....I was born too soon! >_<

Ok, that's it....PARKER!!! Divert all power to the Super Storm Sandy generator!!! We'll get that *** this time!

So you'd be before they found the new world? I can see 200 years too late for you, but back 600 years ago the weaponry was much crappier, what was before muskets? Matchlocks?
