I'm going to look for the "fat meanies" thread and tag you.


JK wouldn't approve of that

Does anyone on here hope to become a published writer one day?
If so:

Fiction or Non-fiction?

What kind of writer do you want to be? (Novelist, poet, journalist, etc?)

Who are your literary idols?

Favourite novel?

Do you have any particular goals relating to your writing? (To finish a novel by the age of 20; To be published by the age of 25; etc.?)


I'll get things started: I aim to have one or more of my short stories published (in a reputable journal) by the age of 20. I hope to have finished my first novel within one year of leaving university. My favourite novel at present would have to be Wuthering Heights, though this tends to change frequently. My literary idols include Hunter S. Thompson, Ernest Hemingway, F. Scott Fitzgerald, J.D. Salinger and the Brontë sisters.

Let's bask in our outlandish ambitions together, friends :u:


Fiction and Non-fiction

Novelist

Fiction (crime/thriller)

Novelist

None

I have too many :mmm:

Finish a specific part of the book by September
New book - launching Friday :smile:

Spoiler



This is my third book so far, but it's actually a prequel to my other two, so technically not part of the same series.

I wrote a textbook to simplify maths proofs, but the traditional publishers don't like these sort of books.

I have written many stories, ranging from satire to adventure, and I'm implementing my adventure story into a game. It was originally a book but I don't think Richard and Judy would like it.


Would you be willing to sell a copy by yourself via Amazon or eBay? :3

I'm selling it on Stuvia at the moment. I'll definitely sell on Amazon once I have more followers. :smile:
