I'm a Girl Writer. That's right, look at me! I'm a writer and I'm a girl!

Ok, that's enough of that.

OT: I write on and off, but these days I'm usually off. I do like fleshing out ideas, though.

I've completed five manuscripts over 50,000 words and am in the middle of a sixth. I've also written a ton of fan fiction because it's fun and harmless. I have a short story collection self published and up for sale.

Yeah, I like writing, a lot. It's what I want to do with my life someday.

Yeah, I'm a writer. Just finished the second act in my series, The Chainsmoker's Trilogy. It should be going up on sale in the next few months. I just love the whole process of writing. Sculpting the characters, the worlds, and so on. The best feeling, by far, is that warm fuzzy glow at a book signing when someone you've never met before comments about their favorite character and you realize that they're talking about something YOU gave life to.

Really? Since when?! This is surely news to me!

Ot: Uh, no, I'm not. But I have started writing reviews for funsies for the first time this year, so who knows from there. I may write the greatest thing in the history of everything.

I mean, if it's not too much effort that is.

SHHH, it's meant to be a surprise! Besides, I've been very restrained in this thread so far. You know what usually happens when I have an audience. *meaningful scowl*

I'm write stuff. I mostly write detective stories, or stories that deal with split personalities/madness. My main project that I think about the most is actually a combination of those. I tend to focus the most on characterization; little personality tics and what-not. On the flip-side, my plots could use a little work, though... they're not bad, but I've certainly seen better.

I do various amounts of writing. Depends on when the mood takes me. I tend to focus a lot on the craft because I find it incredibly interesting, though I've not been published in any major capacities. Save the time I did it on this site, which is still one of my favorite accomplishments.

I tend to favor writing fiction stories, though I've written on just about every topic under the sun. Like many other in this thread, I hope to publish for a living, but I'm well-aware of the pretty grim statistics involved with that actually happening. Here's to hoping.

I'm a fiction writer myself, on and off. Trying to be more 'on' than 'off.' I'm unpublished and just struggling to get myself going. Still, I love doing it. Wouldn't give it up for anything.

I feel tempted to run with this in-joke.

I love how much in-jokes annoy people! :D

I don't think you would be interested in my sex-fics.
I wrote a series of them for an ex-girlfriend. I can't read them any more without feeling uneasy.
Were they nice and creepy cause if they are I'll take em.
Nice. But I think they're a bit awkward now in retrospect; however that may be due to the way I feel about my ex now. I'm surprised anyone else would want to read them.

I suppose I can call myself a writer. Dunno though. I wrote a few fanfictions as a kid, they were horrible but eh xD I'm in the process of getting back into it though.

I try to write but most of the time I suck a describing stuff, the characters and plot I can always get down in my head but I can NEVER describe anything in the story without re-typing the sentence over more than twice, and then I still think it sucks.

Plus I also suffer from chronic laziness, oh yay.

You're the type of person I wish I could be.

When I can actually sit down and pump out more than half a page, I can write some good shit.

Too bad that never happens.

I'm a writer. I wrote some short story stuff then really got into writing after doing NaNoWriMo last year. I just finished my first large scale project and am starting my second.
