Title: Question for anyone interested in a small lil writing gathering...
Post by: deep_eyes on December 05, 2002, 12:50:47 am
I was reading alot of short stories, poetry etc. the last few days (its mad cold in the city), and i was thinking, hey, HLP got alot of good talented writers, theorists, and artists, why not have a lil Thread sometime this week or weekend, where we all get togeather, post a poem, a story, short story, writing, picture, etc., and the administration of the forums, rate em. just a thought, i would love to participate in something like this, it doesnt have to be entirely freespace related, just whatever your mind speaks. i mean even for example when me and stealth had out lil "battle" he had a rhyme i think about a woman, i think it was knigh templar i forgot, but it was deep, and i think we all (who's willing) should get togeather and hook it up.

any thoughts?

I'd be in that, if it was a matter of posting short stories and the like. That reminds me - I still have that fanfic to finish hey?

I suppose you could make a thread in the Art forum for submissions.

Heh, I wrote a short story on Freespace 2 for English last year and got an A+ for it :D

It was 26 pages long though I did have to shorten it a heck of a lot from what I originally planned (I could prob end up with 50 pages) because I had to make the deadline.

I've been planning to finish it totally but never got around to it. I might finish it and stick it up here sometime in the future if anyone interested.

Yea there is good stuff there...

ok, ima compile a listing of peoples who want to atleast submit some writings etc., but i think we keep the thread in the general forum. writings an art but i think we all respectivly frequent this forum section more then anything else...

So, all we need is some Admins to wanna judge the works...

any admins up to it?

I have written a small fiction piece on the PI website, but that is more like a historical overview.

Try asking some Nodewar people, after all Nodewar is about stories.... (and we have some really good writers... like Moddy, Crazy_Ivan, Ace and a bunch of other excellent writers)

Of course I'm typing in English. But talking with people over net is a little bit easier than writing a book. :D

I might do it. Depends on how much time I have, though (Math test Tuesday, and Mid-terms in two weeks)

I think its a great idea!!! I've always wanted to write a story based on FreeSpace Universe but always didn't know where to post it up on.

By the way, I think anybody who wants to post it up here should save it as a Word document and then post up the link here. For those who do not have a server to upload it to, they can ask one of the Hard Light guys to upload it for us.
