Topic: Writers' Thread

So one_man_show gave me the idea to create a writer's thread.

The idea is to have a thread dedicated to writers, and I don't mean script writers...but story writers. People who write short stories, poems, novels, etc of any kind (as long as they are within the BiM rules of course).

So feel free to post your work here to get feedback on it, and just to keep order, I am going to make a few rules:

1. A person who has posted their work must have at least 3 feedback comments before another person can post.

2. If 2 days have passed without activity on the thread, the rule above doesn't apply...but it is reactivated the instant someone decides to
post their work.

3. Please don't bash when giving feedback to someone. If you think they really need to improve, tell them in a kind and honest manner. Also include helpful tips they could follow. We are here to help each other, not bash!

I will go first to start off the thread, the link to my story is below. And if you have any questions/suggestions about this thread, be sure to tell me thanks!

Re: Writers' Thread

I have one problem: I write in Italian. So far I have two short stories, but in Italian. Too bad I can't post them here, I would have liked some feedback on them.

Re: Writers' Thread

You could put it through Google Translate and then post it here.

Re: Writers' Thread

Google Translate could be aptly described as Google Butcher.

Re: Writers' Thread

I love your stories and giving you feedback when you need them. I've written Harry Potter fan-fictions in Swedish. Too bad. Maybe I'll take some time to re-write the chapters in English.

Hahaha...wait, was that a joke? But seriously, better not: I'll see if I'll get time to translate in english, or see if it is "translatable" with what I know about english.

Re: Writers' Thread

Well I will post another one for Christmas then. mini/XD The first chapter (sorry it's the first draft and it has a lot of typos and isn't completely smooth):

Re: Writers' Thread

Cool story, bro.

Re: Writers' Thread

Cheesy poem I made for school:

Snow
To step outside,
  cold will bite,
    flakes will fly,
      smells of water
        shall fill
          the atmosphere.
            Rose skin
              will show on
                noses,
                  and one's ear.

Cheesy, Am I right? It was free writing (I forgot what it was called) but you had to write a poem and it didn't matter what is was like. I just had to be 10 lines long, and since this is the writer's thread, I thought this would fit well. mini/smile

Re: Writers' Thread

nice, that is exactly what snow feels like! Is like the whole world having a snow day or what???
