What? You pay for this stuff!?
Download GIMP, it is free, and better than photoshop (takes a bit of getting used to though).

I listen to Peter Gabriel music when i need inspiration. His lyrics are amazing and bring out the artisitc side of me. Sometimes i will listen to Queen too.

Otherwise, if i am really stuck... i will stare at a blank screen after school everyday until i get something down lol. It usually works. One time i had writer's block for 3 weeks. I sat on the comp for a couple hours each day trying to come up with something... when i finally did... it was the best written peice i had ever done. That same day i did an entire painting (one of my best paintings). That was extreme though... its only happened once.

To Frozen_Fox:

I know you dont write poetry, but even if your bad, you should. It is the one thing that if yourt really stuck, can get you into the swing of things quickly.
I usually give myself strict guidelines.. or, if im really in a bock, i will write a Partrachan or Shakespearean sonnet.
By strict outlines i mean.. i give myself a rhyme scheme.. how many beats per line.. how many metaphors etc. I really lay it out. That is if i have writer's block... otherwise.. i wing it.
When i finally get through that poem, even if it sucked, my writer's block is usally gone and then i go back to my story or script.

k, I might send it to u on sunday though cuz it's just easier to remember on the weekend, then again I got allot of homework so I dunno

hey maybe my friend (who plays guitar) and I (who plays drums) could make a song out of that for the flash project!

Oh and I have writers block and need inspiration....anyone got any ideas on how I can inspire myself to write something thats actually decent?

I suggest just listening to music in the audio portal and trying to match stories or ideas u get from the songs.

Damn haven't worked much more on the preview anymore, might take another week to finish. BTW my dad is sending me a full version of flash mx so no need to worry about getting the full version. wow where would we be without computers.

I had a really random idea for a flash movie in my science lesson today.. Its a parody of the Wizard of OZ bt instead of dorothy going to oz you take on NG user and take them into the Newground sland where they meet up with various members of the NG population that are well known. Tom Fulp would be the equivalent of the wizard and the wicked witch would be someone on the forum that everyone hates.
And instead of the munchkin village you have the clock village where all the clocks live.
The main character would be joined by various members of the Bbs for example we could have the guy who hold the lowest score in the portal join up and ask the "Wizard for some talent"

I spent way to much time thinking this through when I should have been working in chemistry :P

I liked the poem Myst, good work.

I think, if written right, this could be a hilarious flash movie. I like the concept. I might take some time to come up with a few funny scenes.
I really like the idea though. Does anyone want to volunteer as an animator?

Thanks... its one of those very broad, but sensitive poems. I tried to touch alot of metaphors and topics in a short amount of space. Although, it did turn out to be quite a long poem, considering i usually write Sonnets.

Outsmarted
A Shakespearean Sonnet
By, K. Myst Williams

I awake when the outside world is dark
The moon bright and my tired reflection cold
The night before we fought, you left your mark
Something un-right, our relationship unfolds
You are not home, no answer, no response
My hand shakes as the moon dies on my heart
Something un-right, fire flicker’s upon the sconce
I cry at your side not ready to part
Time passes, but my darkened heart still aches
Move on, live long; continue with your life
I try so hard, but it is all a fake
I grieve, die inside; nothings left in life
We argue, you drove home upset… car… lake
Visions in my mind, I again awake

Sometimes all it takes is a little reminder.

Hope you like it... i wrote this about a month ago. I am sure you can figure it out. Not very metaphorical... there is a few though.

Cheers,

Some of you know that not only do i write, but i paint and sketch as well. I am quite good actually.. i have been in a few exhibits etc.

Anyway, my love for art is mostly surrounded by Surrealism and Abstract painting. I also have a love for verse, there for, mixing my love for poetry and my love for art, I attempted to write a Surreal Poem.
Make sanse? not really. I wrote a poem that was extracted from my subconcious. When i finished and read it over... it really does not make sesne. it does to me, but i know to you it will be a bunch of good phrases and mumbo-jumbo.
However, i think it is an inspiriing poem in a weird kind of. I am sure it would be interpreted differently by all. However, it took some effort and it was an experiment. I dont think anyone else has ever attempted this before. Its weird i kno, but give it a chance and see how it effects you.

I find experimenting with writing and art is what really helps me grow in my fields. I hope you can appreciate this... this is the first time i am posting one of my experiments.

I'd love comments or critique.

I'll post it next.

Cheers,

Alenio
A Surreal Poem
By, K. Myst Williams

Swallowed dark unto itself
The book of gold leads fall the shelf
Mix and fade while Tic leads Toc
Open closed, conscious yet to knock
Pace afar, card or not
Fold alone, dagger meets the sign of the cross

Stream of red; drip and drop
Wrong beneath, tide lifts center’s top
Through forward, time ponders stop
Un-lifted past, all ponders change
Pumping right, left off the stage
Soon the end as we began
Where light has done al lit can

Rise and toy; religious void
Cup an aero, not yet deployed
For being, time and hand, is will destroyed
Stare tear, no fast that can avoid
Tense before grab, tension in modern sound
No option; what’s left is what surrounds

Witness; kind cunning, but crowd
Perfect wrong, not behind, but loud
Under stone; feel the heart not yet but found

Thanks for reading another of poems... i think im done for poetry for now. As much as i love it, i have to get back at my novel. Plus i am writing a short story series. One of which might be turned into a flash this coming new year. A collaboration you might be excited to see. :)

Cheers,

Nice poems there myst.Hmmm I should try and work up a poem........maybe not oh well if I do i'll tell ya.

You really should... i feel poetry is what helps me with my growth in writing. It is the very artistic experssional side of writing that helps me explore different aspects of writing and apporaches.

At 11/9/04 01:32 PM, LordSkeletor wrote: Hey havnt been here for a while.Anyway I have started writing a book called 'The Ruins of Courage:Ovmit's Tale' its about a forgotten hero telling his wonderous tales of adventure but his grand-children dont belive him until the find some stines with strange markings on them in his attic....

Feel free to ask questions.

Is it more of a children's book? Like geared towards grade 6 -10 or something like that. Or does it get away from the gandchildren and more into the past of the hero?
I feel that if it was less about the grandchildren and more about the hero, it would be a good book to have suspence and excitment. It sounds like a plot that could be spontanious and full of jaw dropping twists.
Then again, a childrens book would not be so bad either, i have always wanted to try and write one of those.

It is very good, you have a unique style of writing. Some suspence and attention grabbing moments... i was impressed.
I would give a better critique, but i am in a rush... i have a huge visual arts project due wednesday that i am behind on. Maybe tonight if i find time and get alot done today i'll give you some more comments and critique.
Very good though... I enjoyed it.

Cheers,

I think the writer's guild should do its first flash movie...
If you want to be involved post a reply and state your idea and/or position.

Ex// Writer or Animator or Audio etc.

I think for our first flash we should do a comedy... i really liked the idea about the Wizerd of Oz spoof. However, we need to fit in the writer's guild as part of the Oz community... where do we fit in?
Maybe we can be a bunch of guys sitten around telling the story to little kids in a library or somtehing.. and then when something stupid or funny happens in the 'oz book'... one of us says something rediculous or unsutable for the children to hear. Or we could quite possible just be the main charcters... like the tin guy and what not. I dunno, but i like the Oz spoof and thought we should at least make use of it.

**If you know an animator or are an animator who is interested... please post with a link to one of your existing portal entries. If you havnt any... post a snapshot of your animation style (graphics).

If this doesnt fly because ppl want to do a more serious flash... please post your idea. It is open to discussion. Either way, id like it if the writer's guild came up with a collaborative flash movie.

It would be fun, give something more for us to discuss and would let the ppl of Ng know that the Writer's Guild exists for the writers and animators of NG and that we are a serious respectable bunch.

Would probably bring more interest to our 'club'... and gather us more members. If you are apart of the Lat Night Lounge... get some of those guys to join here too.. for during the day. lol.

This club is serviving, but i want it to grow.

Comments, ideas, etc is welcome... please post.

Cheers,

Okay... one last poem i whiped up. I know i said id take a break from'em... but i love poetry... and this club is to post and discuss literary forms... so here it is:

July
An Artistic Ode
By, K. Myst Williams

You struggle as another person
Feeling the fire in your chest
You yearn for an obsession
Desire at its best
Yet adrenaline red-lights your rest
Wind inside, a forced collapsing sigh
Desire on high

A subtle touch of soft red lips
A comfortable hand moving down your hips
A curve, a thigh
Lust at its best
A movement to succeed your highest tests
Heat inside, an exhale of romantic breath
Lust or meth

For a moment you lack all sense
Union and climax makes you grow tense
Losing hold, building suspense
Pleasure at its best
Beating in their chest
Deep inside, a choke, a cry
Pleasure in July

Make it worth something.

Thanks for reading... all my poems are always given 100%... so i appreciate it when ppl respond and comment or critique.
Until later tonight...

Cheers,

If we do the Oz thing then We should be the story tellers that make a comment and the characters hera it and start argueing or something like that.

I think we should use well known people from NG as the main charcters so we could use Tom Fulp as the wizard, one of the mods as wicked witch and the clock crew as the munchkins but of we cant think of well known NG users to represent the diufferent characters then we could use ourselves for them.

btw Myst I too your advice for the poem writing and Im going to have an attwempt at it. Ill post it when its done.

well I thought that we were going to use my VAMPIRE NINJA idea, dont know if I'm too interested in the Wizard of Oz story but it sounds kinda funny, it could be called uh...The Wizard of the Portal, or The Wizard of New Grounds. I think I might do an independant clay project cuz I just bought all the equipment I need to make one, it was only 30 bucks on amazon.com, not to sure if I could use my Vampire Ninja idea with clay though cuz the characters have no arms or legs just floating hands and feet. anyway if anyone wants to help me, or has a story I think I should use feel free to ask.
BTW I have to reformat my comp so I wont be able to post for a couple of days.

I hope the poetry experience helps you grow as a writer as it does for me.

I very much like your flash idea... it needs more work though. So i was thinking we would get a flash movie done with that we can all take part in first before we start doing more specific flash.
The oz one can give us all a part in creating it along with parts in the the actual flash.

Make sure you post here when you submit your clay movie... so we know that it is i nthe portal for viewing. Hopefully the Oz project and your clay project will finish around the same time so that we can re-evaluate your ninja idea.

P.S. i dont think the vampire ninja idea will work for clay, but it might be worth a shot.

*** A reminder... we are looking for animators who want to animate our comedic Oz collaboration. If you are not too keen o nthe Oz idea... please post your own ideas. We can always compromise. ***

I got to go to my art project some more :S.. .so much goddamn work. I cant wait till i finish.

On page 6... i posted three poems if anyone is interested in reading them. The third one is called 'July' and was just posted a couple hours ago. Its about sex if that intrigues you to read it any. lol.

We havnt exactly setlled in. Forzen_Fox posted his idea and i liked it so i simply expressed that i thought it was creative and good. If you have an idea you think is better. Please post it.
What about *in milton's voice from office space*... whats that mean? Maybe i missed something when i was banned?
