I sort of got motivated to start writing by a few friends so I somewhat planned a story and wrote the first chapter and none of the people who initially motivated me to do it have even read it. I think it's sort of unfair of them but anyways, I want to make some friends who I could possibly get some pointers from about writing and also would be able to help me in terms of reading what I've written and giving me constructive criticism. I'm sort of new to writing so I'm not the greatest but would love to learn from others. In return I'm willing to do the same.

Sure! This guild is for people who are willing to get critiqued and are not afraid to do the same! Write away my friend! Write away.

Shared it with you. I made it so you can comment. Highlight whatever you want to comment on and right click then press comment, then you can make suggestions for certain areas and I can fix it or whatever. I've actually had a lot of trouble with the tense. I keep changing it so I changed parts of it but I don't know which one sounds better.

I guess since your story is already posted here, I will read it here, unless it's on google docs since that seems to work pretty well for me.

I don't think it's on google docs so yeah just look at it here. It's always good to experiment with the tenses and point of views as long as you settle on one for the final draft. I'll check it out as soon as I can smile
Oh and also I realized it might not of been smart of me to post my email so
I edited it out.

Alright, I think I have a few tenses in there actually. I need to decide on one before I finalize the chapter. I also haven't settled on a name for the story and one for the chapter.
Oh yeah, that's a good idea haha

I commented on it. And a title doesn't really matter at the moment. I wanted names for chapters but since I suck at titles, I decided not to have them. The way I came up with my title was through playing Skyrim haha (I'm such a dork). War Maiden was one of the shops or something and I really liked the way it sounded. It seemed to work really well with the story too. So, yeah, you can come up with a title later. Maybe something will hit you near the end.

Yeah, I saw your comments. Thanks a lot, and don't worry, I'm not offended at all. I'll take it all into account when I start editing it again. I was thinking of something like 'Four Minutes left' for the title, but still not sure. I actually sort of wanted to upload it chapter by chapter on some other website but only once I'm fully happy with it.

Another you can do is to make a blog and place your stories there.
The blog world is filled with very friendly people -- I have made a lot of friends through blogging.

But I admit, it takes time before take interest in certain blogs.

I could always use some contrasting minds smile Pm me and I'll send you my email, My work is posted on DVA however. You won't need a DVA as long as you don't plan on reading the 13+ material.

(In my opinion, 13+ may include mild violence and mild gore)

I should have some 0-12 work there

However, It wont be much seeing as my main fans were fans of smut x_x I'm currently going non smut untill I have at least a dozen or so 17 and younger reading materials.
