Do you mind if its posted on the forum or do you want it sent to you in an email.

Post it on here if you want, but since i've already read it on email, it doesn't really matter which way you do it

I cant even remember what I said in it lol. I have such a bad memory :-( Meh anyways. Are you going to carry on with your story?

Response to The Book Club 2004-10-28 17:38:10


Hell yes. I've been writing it for about 3 months, but the time taken is mostly brainstorming, during the quiet periods at work and then I write a little every week. I don't know when I'll be finished writing this, but then again, I don't even know what's going to happen in the end of the first story.

I have big things planned for this.

Well, I've never found any kind of job I actually enjoyed doing, but I quite enjoy writing stories. I figured that I'd give this a go and hopefully get myself published one day

Oh fianally a post!
Yes I have heard that is very good,Can you tell me a bit about it?

Response to The Book Club 2004-10-29 15:32:52


Ok, i realise im not a member but i felt it would be ok to post in here.

Im currently reading The HitchHikers Guide to the Galaxy, has anyone read it ? Its a very stupid ook, im not really enjoying it to be honest. I hope it gets better, because the last few books i read were really quite good. Christine by Stephen King and The Shining by the same authour, were both excellent reads, and i enjoyed reading them. This Hitchhikers is like a chore to read but im compelled to finish it so i know what happened.

Anyone had any similar experiences ?

Your the first person that Ive heard of that doesnt like Hitchhikers guide to the galaxy. Hitchikers is one of the funniest books Ive read.

But yeah I know what you mean about reading a book even though yuo dont want to just for the sake of knwoing what happened. I had to read a book called " I am david" at school and it was by far one of the worst books ive read. ButI carried on reading even though we had stopped reading it in lesson just to
se if he did find his mother.

Wow, i had no idea there was a book club.
I would love to join.
My favoutite book is Jude the Obscure by Thomas Hardy
My current favourite author is James Patterson.
And i am currently reading, Suzannes Diary For Nicholas (which is much different than James Patterson's normal novels, but it is soo sad *sniff*)

So... uhh, what else is new?

I will agree, its funny as hell, but its not the typical novel i read. Im reading it for the sole reason i saw it on the 100 greatest novels of all time. Of which iam a master of the best book, Lord of the Rings by John Ronald Ruell Tolkein.

OMg yes!
Okay Thomas Hardy is a classic novelist. Most of his books are early 1900's. However, Jude the Obscure is both twisted and amazing.
James Patterson wrote the books 'Along Came a Spider' and 'Kiss the Girls'... which both are motion pictures. He also wrote '1st to Die' which was a tv movie.
He is the bestselling author today for mystery thrillers.

So if you like mystery thrillers... James Patterson.
If you like classic lit... Thomas Hardy
Thomas Hardy is also an amazing poet.

Although, now i have o resort to reading books in which i chose to not read. right now i am reading Eragon, pretty good so far.

I've heard of the Dragonlance series. I didn't really like them, because I had a hard time empathising with the setting, as it's based around Dungeons and Dragons, which I play a lot.

Maybe it's just me though
