Fictional Experimentation

Sun Oct 7, 2007, 10:11 PM
So, I know its been a while since there has been any activity on this account, but today is different from the status quo. I originally made this account to post any fiction I may write, and that is still the case. I have just completed the initial education phase of this experiment. In other words, I have read some books on how to write books. The books I have read are:

Techniques of the Selling Writer by Dwight V. Swain
Plot and Structure by James Scott Bell
Character, Emotion & Viewpoint by Nancy Kress
Dialog by Gloria Kempton
Setting & Description by Ron Rozelle

In my opinion, the latter four books are great companions for the first book listed. I found all of those books to be most enlightening. Now the next step is to actually write something. Since my educational background is in the sciences, you can probably guess how I am going to approach this endeavor. The next step for me is to brainstorm some plot ideas and then enter the planning and preparation phase. After I have a rough outline of a plot, I will get to work writing the first draft. These things take time, so if you are eager to read any of my work, you may be waiting a while. Hopefully the wait will be worth it.

Until next time ...

Two natures beat within my breast;
One is foul, one is blessed;
The one I love, the one I hate;
the one I feed will dominate.
Welcome to dA!! :'D
Yay, I got a 3rd game designer now tagging me as a friend. Of course I know all 3 of you game designers in person too.

If it aint French or Japanese, then I use Google Translate
Hey, thanks for the greetings. I set up this account for any fiction that I may write. I haven't got anything ready to post at the moment, but when I do, I certainly will post it. It may take a while though, since I'm just starting out. This is a bit of an experiment for me, so I expect that my first submissions won't be anything too impressive. However, as with any act of creation, if you want to be good, you have to be willing to be very, very bad in the beginning.
Welcome to DA :hug:
Have fun and share some :D
