Welcome to Gaia! ::

'ello! I'm Evil_Excel but you can just call me Excel for short.
I'm 17 years old and am currently unemployed but looking like a mad woman...-.- I am also a Senior in High school.

I write poetry and short stories. I also write songs but their pretty rubbish. I just got into short stories but I especially like coming up with longer stories, plots, twists, characters, etc..The problem is I never get around to finishing them because i'm so lazy. I've dabbled a bit in script writing but again most of it is rubbish and so I don't even think too much about it.

1/2 my writing just sort of comes out of me. I wouldn't say i'm creative just inventive. I like to twist, prode, and tear apart concepts then reconstruct them in a way that makes sense to me. The other 1/2 comes from being inspired by movies i've seen, books I've read, or arguments i've heard. I try not to copy plots or anything. I mostly look at the style, tone, setting, and character motivations. Sometimes I do take a bit of their main ideas such as morals or lessons or subjects but like I said I like to twist them in a way that's inhuman. 3nodding I really like imagery but I'm rubbish at trying to be symbolic or something so I end having a good laugh when someone reads some of my stuff that didn't have real meaning in it and thinking it means somthing. But then again I get really let down when I try symbolism and it doesn't work or people just take it at face value, refusing to open their minds to what it could mean. But I guess it's hard to find readers now a days who are not looking for something hidden but just see it. Most people are just looking too hard or not hard enough. I admit to being like this sometimes.

The person I admire would have to be John Lennon. Not exactly because of what he writes more because he has the balls to be free and loose with his writing. And I try not to be so uptight but trying to be loose is terribly hard. lol

Hello! I'm Elf of the Shadows! You guys can call me Elf for short. I love writing! Typing too for that matter! I like to write all kinds of literature, but biographys...no. I really enjoy writing fantasy and am writing a book. Let's see how far that gets! I'm very happpy to be here and am looking forward to everything here!

Hello, You can call me Salome. I am a college student, studying Law. I love writing and have been writing stories since I was 7. I have written at least three books but need to get more motivated to send them to an editor and a publisher. That's my real problem procastination and motivation.

Not sure what catagory my writing falls in some short stories, a bit of scifi, but I really like to write normal everyday people. Not really true life cause I make it up but...Normal everyday things people go through.

I do work too, so I'm not alway on gaia but when I'm home I am. Maybe to much. biggrin

Wow. I feel belittled o_o Ahm, I'm Keriea, but you can call me Kat, Katrina, K, Kate, CauliFlower, Pentagon, Ina, In, Ker, Keri, Riea, Katriciano, or whatever you can think of!

I am 13 years old, I like writing poetry and quotes. I enjoy playing on my computer and sketching, and I'm a very tardy student. I do well in school, except Geography dares to befuddle me *shakes fist in the air*. Ah--I get hyper sometimes, but sometimes I can be very mature. My voice changes to an adult voice when I answer the phone/talk to a stranger =O

This is so cool! whee *hugs everybody*

Sorry. I know I shouldn't do that.

But yes, as was said, this is the guild mule. I'm hoping to get the avi glitch fixed eventually.

Did you read the rules? Um.. whatever rules I could find.

Will you follow the rules? Sure, why not?

What do you like to write (poetry, short stories, etc)? Well, this is a very interesting story. I took Creative Writing last year, and sort of towards the end of the year, I started writing my autobiography, more or less, but then the class ended and there was nobody to critique my writing anymore, so I went out looking for a casual forum of amateurs to fill in, because I can never take that creative writing class again as long as I live, sorry, that's the rules.
