1) What experience do you have as a writer and as a literature critique?
I've been writing since kindergarten (I'm 21 now) but most of my early stuff was well... childish, lol. As of now I have two novels written (they're in editing mode), writing a new novel and planning another one. I take writing seriously. As a literature critique? Um... not much maybe?
2) What part of the guild interests you the most? Where do you think you'll be spending most of your time here?
I haven't really looked around but I like to wander through guilds.
3) What do you want to do with the skills you get from this guild?
Better myself?
4) Anything else you want us to know about you?
I'm kind of a lurker but I'll do my best to post!

1) What experience do you have as a writer and as a literature critique? (unofficial stuff on the side like hobbies counts too. Don't be afraid to say you're just getting interested in writing if that is the case.)
Well, I've loved writing for a really long time. However, although I've been writing fiction on the side for around 5-6 years (i'm 16), I've only started to think about getting serious recently. It's hard to write long stories, or even short stories, while juggling schoolwork, but I try.
As far as critiquing goes, that's also mostly unofficial. My friends and I frequently critique and edit each others' writing, so I guess you could call me a hobbyist.
2) What part of the guild interests you the most? Where do you think you'll be spending most of your time here?
The original works forum interests me the most! I always write with original characters/storylines, so I'm excited to see what other people think of my work if I post it. smile
3) What do you want to do with the skills you get from this guild?
Well, hopefully my writing will improve enough that I'll start placing and/or winning writing contests on Gaia. Also, since my dream job is an author, this guild could possibly help my skills improve and get me closer to that goal.
4) Anything else you want us to know about you?
As I stated before, I'm fairly young for a Gaian; and my writing not be as good/mature as many older guild members. However, although I am just 16, I hope to make some friends and give/get some honest critiques on my work smile .

I write in school. Like essays and stuff. I also write online, like for fanfiction and fictionpress. I've been writing since 2006. smile But I can never say I'm perfect at writing. I'll just have to say, I keep getting better and better everyday. (:
2) What part of the guild interests you the most? Where do you think you'll be spending most of your time here?
Hmm. I guess the part where it's about writers. We can share our thoughts and teach each other. As for the second question, I have yet to search around the guild.
3) What do you want to do with the skills you get from this guild?
Write more. :'D
4) Anything else you want us to know about you?
Nah. Just find out for yourself, I don't bite. (:

Hello everyone.
1) What experience do you have as a writer and as a literature critique? I've written stories for years, but very infrequently. Recently I've started writing seriously and am enjoying it immensely.
2) What part of the guild interests you the most? Where do you think you'll be spending most of your time here? I've looked at the guild some and all parts of it seem pretty cool. I like writing contests because I'm a fairly competitive person, though not ever unsportsmanlike.
3) What do you want to do with the skills you get from this guild? I want to improve my writing to the point where I can publish some of my works.
4) Anything else you want us to know about you?
I'm awesome, if I do say so myself.

Well, I've always had a thing for writing, since I was very young. I just love writing stories (I am best at fiction, horror and romance). Now I'm thinking about taking it more seriously, and maybe go on to study it when I leave high school. I helped judge a writing contest earlier on this year, and I think I am quite good at giving advice to others.
2) What part of the guild interests you the most? Where do you think you'll be spending most of your time here?
The contests and competitions! I love to enter writing contests and see how well I do in them.
3) What do you want to do with the skills you get from this guild?
Just improve my writing.
4) Anything else you want us to know about you?
I'm not the best of writers and I'm sure there are people here with better skills. But I hope I can get some good critiques out of this and hopefully build up my skills too.

My name is Fayte. I've beed writing all my life and most reciently picked up serious RPing. So as you can imagine, its more of a hobby for me (an awesome hobby). I've written and illistrated a childrens book but I've never had it copyrighted or published (though I've been told to many times). I'm nearly 21 years old and am an aspiring artist going to college for graphic design. Though my love for drawing is rather new, (I picked it up about three years ago.) it is the carreer path I've chosen. But I still LOVE to write. Most of what I write is poetry and short stories.
Its kind of a dream of mine to one day write a full blown fantasy novel, but I know that may never happen considering the fact that I don't do deadlines well.
I know I'm pretty old to still be on gaia, but I have friends on here who still get on and this is the only way we communicate. Plus, I love entering writing contests and dressing up my avi! ninja

I've been writing since seventh or eighth grade and I'm in 11th now.
2) What part of the guild interests you the most? Where do you think you'll be spending most of your time here?
I don't know enough about the guild yet to say.
3) What do you want to do with the skills you get from this guild?
Continue writing my stories, only better.
4) Anything else you want us to know about you?
Hm... I go by Dh or Sarah, I love writing pointless stories about my own imaginary worlds, mild horror, emotional stuff, basically anything that makes me happy. I can write about anything though.

I've been making up stories since I could talk, writing since I learned how to, and role playing online since I was around twelve or thirteen. I'm finishing up my junior year of college where though I'm majoring in history, I've taken a number of English courses.
2) What part of the guild interests you the most? Where do you think you'll be spending most of your time here?
Probably the games and getting some feedback.
3) What do you want to do with the skills you get from this guild? Improve as a writer.
4) Anything else you want us to know about you?
Mmm. Not really. I'm open to PMs if anyone wants to talk to me about anything.

i write aaaaalllllll the time on my free time. I'm in the middle of 3 different books, and i have soo much fun doing it. Sometimes i sit in a tree with a notebook and my ipod and just write for hours xD
2) What part of the guild interests you the most? Where do you think you'll be spending most of your time here?
well i was invited into this guild. i read the title and accepted it and looked around; i think i'll be in the "original stories" part most.
3) What do you want to do with the skills you get from this guild?
publish my book. I've gotten a ton of feed back from various places; they all said it's really good xD but i think i can make it better.. ^_^
4) Anything else you want us to know about you?
eh.. ohh i stick to fantasy. i think realistic fiction is quite boring, and its just about everyday stuff that can happen to someone. in fantasy... anything can happen xd

My name is Nikolina and I want to be a writer when I grow up. I've been writing since I was little but really started trying last summer. I think I will spend my time in the classrooms here and I want to get critiques to make my writing better for my books and poetry. I also like to draw and would like some tips on that as well.
