So, I joined MythicScribes back in 2011 when I first saw the link on NaNoWriMo, I believe, but I failed at being super active after that. I've been lurking and replying to threads here and there so I figured I might as well actually try and officially come back.
I pretty much ended up going like eight months (from like January 2012 and on) without doing any real non-role play related writing (I run a Star Wars message board role play) and I think that's part of the reason I'm finding it hard to get started on a new story/novel/whatever it ends up being. I have plenty of ideas in my head, but one of the main things I'm having issues with is actually pushing myself to write without my brain going "no, this is stupid, how is this supposed to work?" etc. Which doesn't usually happen, really, so it's interesting.
Anyway...for those who don't want to read my old intro thread, I'm twenty-six (almost twenty-seven) and I write original fantasy. I tend to call it high fantasy/sword and sorcery. I thought I wrote stories for young adults, but technically my characters tend to be in their late-teens-to-mid-twenties, so I guess that doesn't really fall under young adults- the main thing that would qualify as young adult, I think, is the lack of any sexual or super violent description/scenes. I sadly do not have anything finished. I've been writing stories since at least third grade, but fantasy stories since my sophomore year of high school. Otherwise I used to write Star Wars fan fiction as well, back before I even knew the term 'fan fiction' existed.
There's a story I started writing for NaNo 2011 that I haven't finished but want to try and rework and continue at some point. Otherwise I just have a lot of ideas that I want to use but know that they won't all work in one story. So my hope is basically that this place will help push me into the right direction so that I can actually start working on a project again.
