Aleris

Hey I was thinking about writing a book In fact, I am in the initial stages of planning.. The plot will be complex, involving civil wars in a fantasy setting which interact with the future of our Earth, similar to my old story-lines where Xezvimhi is traveling from one realm to another. In this storyline, a fantasy realm would interact with a sci-fi realm. Two genres in one. Hax.

But I'm worried I will get writer's block. I've been able to write some massive stuff but typically I get the most creative in Roleplaying (due to habit, I've been RPing since I was like 12). Every time I set out to write a story, I get stuck after the first ten or so pages. I suspect using multiple characters and settings will ease this transition for me.

Has any one else written a book? The longest independent work I've done (that I'm happy with) was in a creative writing class, ended up 24 pages long. I'm sure some of the stuff I've written even in this realm wide storyline could compete with that, but it's all mingled with other peoples work and impossible to publish. I want to make something much more massive..

Who knows and maybe get rich

Good Luck! That's awesome news!

I've never written a book, I know for a fact the longest things I've ever written were on a forum similar to this one. Best advice I ever got: Write the story you want to read.

If I were to write one it would be about time travel! Maybe with a bit of reincarnation thrown in!

Just be sure to include all the things you search out in your favorite books and it's sure to be great.

I haven't written a book yet but I have plans to make a series of four books. I have already mapped out my world and created a history. Sadly every time I have tried to make progress I lose my motivation quickly. I haven't stopped trying but I wish you luck you have good instincts.

I volunteer myself as your muse, but I want a cut of the profit!

Deal!

I am actually working on the map of my world in Photoshop, and if I may say so myself, it's sexy. I will post it here sometime but I'm still not finished. Once I'm done with the map, I can better understand how wars and political regions would develop so I can make a realistic environment.
