After seeing a recent poem dedicated to Sarahfeena, I thought it would be good to have a thread specifically for that. Sarahfeena ballerina today she may do a plié.

For those who wish to write further on the backgrounds of their characters in the ongoing Star Trek campaign.

Hello everyone! 'Tis Froddy. :3 I love to draw and doodle in my spare time. I'm not a professional but I have been doing it ever since I was little. It's one of the way I express myself. Here's a doodle of a chameleon. I attempted to make him...

I notice while browsing through old books in the store that in the past, say before 1990 it seems to have been common, perhaps even standard to write your name and the date or year you got the book. More curiously perhaps it seems to have been...

===== Prologue==== “Forget all that, what really happened?” The president scratched at a fleck on the window of his railcar and turned to face the other character, “Something very bad. We know that,” he stabbed a finger into the air, “for...

I've been playing with this for a while, but it finally got expanded into something more than just some randomly generated text. Behold, the romance novel plot generator. It does standard straight romance: The girl's name is Elizabeth and she...

"No Horse of Mine" Sam was his name, or at least that’s what he told people. Not that many asked, not these days, not when they saw his eyes. He had once worn gray and cheered the Confederacy as loudly as anyone, but victory was no closer...

The old thief began his story, “This one is about a friend of mine.” New York, 1953, the city is near its apex. The New York Yankees have just beaten the Brooklyn Dodgers in the World Series; making it an amazing 5 titles in a row. Will it...

It all started one day when my wife would be out for the day and I had settled down to surf the net looking for transgender sites, I was only dressed in a black lace garter belt, black hose and high heeled black pumps. I had just found a promising...

It was early evening as the crowd gathered round the gallows, while being held back at a respectable distance by a set of guards in the local count's livery. Pikes were jabbed out and sharp orders given to the soldiers as the onlookers were waiting...

Well, to make up for the completely pointless thread I started in the Lounge, I thought I'd try to contribute something different. Here are some of my lyrics. Praise and constructive criticism welcome! Your Fountain You don't have to...

About 9:40PM, it was time to try once a gain to get Demon & Devil to come in side. Demon will usually come in when the White skunk shows up... Well, right on time, I looked out and there he was. The white skunk. This time I took a camera. The...

Okay, it's a really small barn. The story behind the barn: When I was little, my step-grandpa started building this thing. I loved it as soon as I realized it had to do with horses. I wanted to look at it every time I went to their house. But...

There was a wicked old tavern just off the waterfront in Port Royal - mind, it could have been most anywhere in any of half a hundred islands not so very far different one from another, for let the law do what it might in those days, even the King...

The house was left over from some other generation, before the entire neighborhood had gone to shit. It looked out of place largely because it had been kept up well. Most of the other big houses had been split up into apartments, or knocked down to...

You have to type at a certain speed or something happens? Meant to get you concentrating on volume rather than finesse I think.

I love 'em, can't get enough of them. Ok some huge percentage of them are just shit but there's so much gold. Here are some I've cobbled together using ragebuilder and similar sites.

Here's a short story I found on my hard drive, one I'd written a year or so ago. Tourist Trap Tourist Trap The signal echoed throughout Dyrinian controlled space. Come to Earth, it said. Visit a beautiful, unspoiled landscape. Observe the...

I just had a drunken argument with a Russian about music, and it seems we have different ideas on what it is. So, is it a bunch of sounds that make you feel stuff? A mass-produced commodity to make rich people more money? A mode of expression?...

A Wilki Jhanden story The worldlet had no real purpose, and thus had no real name. It was a spec of a world, a moon really, adequately habitable by anything from a biosphere similar to Earth’s. From a galactic standpoint it was the planet which...

I write fiction only nowadays, but I used to write poetry in high school and college. Most of it is not fit for human consumption, but there are some pieces I still like. I'd love to hear what people who don't know me think about them, since the...

This will be shorter than my lyrics thread. ---------------------------- Too Proud, Too Numb Across a landscape, created by dreams Dizzy with colour and weak at the seams A patchwork of fantasies, tattered and torn And each little...

A Wilki Jhanden Adventure Up until that moment, it had been a disappointing week for the Mayor of Siceltown. His thinning hair and pasty skin had not improved under the stress of a gamble that was far from paying off. It had taken every ounce of...

Dancing in the basement silently, I wonder if they can hear the echoes up above. My feet pounding in beat with their blood and the music in my mind of the most sublime beauty. If they hear me do they wonder about my identity, or do they even...

A Wilki Jhanden Adventure It was amazing the things a person got used to, without even realising it. As a wanderer of the stars, Wilki Jhanden had witnessed many things, half of which he would not have believed coming from another’s mouth, but...

A Wilki Jhanden Story Wilki Jhanden felt uneasy. The galaxy is a big place, and a human life so short. It was impossible to see it all, and he was content with that. but he did want to see as much of it as possible. Life. Life in a million...

The Foregone Conclusion was, technically, part of human-controlled space. Though the formal boundaries of the Human Domain were blurred, subjective and always changing, the ship was well beyond the outermost worlds that any reasonable person would...

http://soundcloud.com/bigmonsterlove/01-nollaig-na-mban-come-and-gone I wrote and recorded this a few weeks ago. It's on a charity Christmas EP that can be got downloaded at http://heftyhorse.bandcamp.com/

I was bored today so decided to paint a picture in the shop window for Christmas. It came out pretty decent if I may say so myself, it took hours though, maybe 3 from start to finish. It was a lot of fun though.

Is it possible to write a scary story in under 140 characters? We're about to find out. Inspired by a discussion in chat last night, I decided to run a little Halloween writing contest. Write microfiction that's short enough to be a tweet and...

You are challenged to write an effective dating-site intro for the gentleman above. You're intro must be as truthful as possible, but still get this guy calls. Your intro should be in the 75-150 word range. Assumptions: Lives with...

Well, I'm not that creative but it looks as though the BBC have released plans for a DIY Dalek. That's right make your own, evil exterminator out to conquer the galaxy from some plywood and a sink plunger. I believe a Mr. D Avros will be...

For this POS I'm writing. What would you think would have been the biggest American city to escape Soviet ICBMs in a US/USSR nuclear war? What parts of the US in general would you imagine would survive most intact after such a conflict? ...

Inspired by this stretch of Justin Bieber's song U Smile, a couple of us in chat started doing the same thing to other songs. Here are the two I've uploaded so far: Dirty, by Darren Hayes Possibility, by Lykke Li I didn't do any...

The premise here is that Legolas is sending reports to King Elessar. Accompanying him on the journey is Captain Roland of the Citadel Guards, whose letters to his brother Ronceval are included with the reports from Legolas. Ronceval is a...

The purple velvety sky hung heavy with stars as it sagged over the outstretched planes of southern Kansas, which were covered in top-heavy fields of corn bowing and swaying in a breeze that brought the scent of slow roasting, heavenly pork from...

January 12th, 2139 CE "What are those doing in my lab?" Dr. Theresa Barnes stood frozen to the spot in the doorway of the psy-lab. The door began to beep steadily, warning that it had been left open. Due to safety protocols it couldn't close...

The New York Times is saying that Fox is having some sort of contest for scripts for new comedies. Rules are here. Anyone know more about it? (A Rush Limbagh-like character deals with the merry hijinks of his vegetarian wife and...

And how did you prepare before writing it/them? Did you do a lot of research beforehand or just start writing? Did you have a concrete theme or setting decided upon before you started?

That's one odd titke, AG. Where'd it come from?

What absolutely needs to be read right now? What book will finally make my life complete? What will blow minds and inform the masses? Recommend a book. Now. Do it! I'm in desperate need of new reading material and I'd like something fairly...

I am writing a character who is sort of a sociopath, but he isn't. He's a sociopath in that he doesn't feel guilty for what he does. He is unburdened by second-guessing himself. But at the same time, he's not unsympathetic to those around him, he...

This is a story I wrote around 1991 or 1992. The way it came about is that a coworker was taking a creative writing class, which she thought would help make her creative. She came to work one day, and said the teacher had written DEAD HORSE, NM on...

Warning: This fic includes RPS (Real Person Slash) and explicit m/m content. If you don't like homoeroticism or reading fanfic about real people, you probably won't like this story. Summary: Set while The Beatles are in Hamburg. Paul hates Stuart...

I read recently that there is a campaign here now to get all students at Secondary level (analogous to High School in the US school system) using eBook readers instead of books. It isn't an entirely coherent campaign as yet but I imagine calls for...
