He has to defeat an evil queen with his friends before the sunset on a lunar eclipse, or the world itself with collapse under the power that is released.
I’m also writing another book and this one is in the present. It’s called In Their Hands. Its about 4 people with superpowers including mind moving, fire (I like fire!), Force fields, invisibility, speed, mind reading, ice and strength (They each have 2 powers) If you could plz reply and tell me what you think I would be so happy!

I like the idea of writing a book…
Well, I am doing it rigft now.. xP
I have some ideas for the book i want to write. I thought about writing it, like about a year or something ago, but my teacher forced me to write this year.. I have to finish it at the end of my next clas, but i still don’t know wich story to pick out..
I don’t know,if I should pick one about mythology and that stuf (mythology creatures for my book: vampires, werewolves and ghosts) or one with a girl, who helps her best friends to say no to drugs, and falls in love with the most popular boy on the school… well, both ideas are stupid, but my head is empty, so i can’t get any other ideas..
but i still have to choose the place for the hapening. i thought about somwhere in usa, and i’m from slovenia so i don’t know many places there.. can someone please help me with that?? thanks.
by the way, i’m going to check if stardust is in our library and if it is, i’m going to read it..

I am writing a short story that is called the islander. It is about a man from France named Pierre who loves to sail and goes out to sail and gets caught in a storm and lands on an island and makes a log cabin. then goes to anouther island and found a little boy whose name is Alexander whose parents died in a battle against some other people. Alexander tells the man what the name of the two islands are, Nagasaki and little Nagasaki. Alexander is not very sure about Pierre because he looks exactly like the men his family fought against and lost. What else do you think should happen next?

girltlk12, this author came to my school a couple of years ago and and told us how to sometimes write a book. First you think about what type of story you want to write about, either a mystery, a fairy tale, wahtever yuo want. Then he said that a lot of times he would just spin around, while closing his eyes, and then open them. Whatever he saw he would write about.

I need ideas. I’m only on page 12 or so, and I know i have a long way to go. The book is called Oliver the Fire Dancer.

I’ve already written twenty-three books. Most of them in Kindergarten and first grade. Those weren’t very good, though. But now I’m in fourth grade, and I wrote a book. It’s about my third grade class going to a party and our parents came also. A man who made an invention to become invisable kidnapps the parents so the class of twenty has to find them. Along the way, they find gagets, comfert, notes, and lots and lots of trouble. When I first read three chapters of my book to my class, I found that it was a class favorite. It’s going to be a series. I’m writing my second one called, On Another Planet. It’s about the class going to a different planet, sent by there master, Manny, and they have to stop the most dangerous plot that the planet has ever econtered.

When Prince’s owner dies, he’s sent to the animal shelter and makes friends with the animals. When he finds out when you stay too long at an animal shelter, you get killed. Prince wants to find a way to let all pets free and find a home. Will he do that? This story is about love, sadness, silly times, and times that make you MAD!

BUT THE POWERS AREN’T LIKE SHOOTING LASERS OR SOMETHING!!!! It is seeing things or whatever you want to call it. It’s like reading minds and seeing ghosts and angels and demons. But she still has to deal with normal problems like popular girls, boys, and oh evil cheerleaders. Like evil evil. Not just High School evil. PLEASE Help me with a title!!!!

Okay. The book I’m writing right now is called “Waterfall”. The three main characters are Alexndrea, an eleven year old girl who collects pebbles, Ian, a sixteen year old boy who doesn’t care very much for Alexandrea, and Jamie, Ian’s twin sister who’s always being polite and absolutly has to see her boyfriend, Gabe, every day of her life. This story I’m writing is ery different from my other storys because it’s a very sad one. It’s not very funny at all. “Waterfall” takes place in a stream in Alexandrea’s backyard. This leads to the plot, so listen carefully. Alexandrea collects pebbles from the stream in her backyard. One day she finds a very unique purple pebble and decides to keep it. Her grandparents are coming for Thanksgiving si Alexandrea decides to clean up her messy room. She gets so tired of it, she wishes that her family could hire a maid to clean up for a change. Just then, the doorbell rings and it’s a maid. So Alexandrea decides to test the pebble to see if it’s magic and it is! Don’t go, this is the good part. Alexandrea tells Ian that the pebble is magic and he doesn’t believe her. Alexandrea tries to convince him that it’s real, but he still doesn’t listen so they get into this silly arguement. Then Alexandrea accedently wishes that Ian was very very sick and would never get better! So Ian got really sick and alexandrea couldn’t find the pebble anywhere. I think you would want to keep readig my book because it’s very emotional and very magical and there’s so many very impertant events that take you through to the end. I may be only 9, but if you ask my friends, they’ll say I’m a great author. (I don’t mean to brag or anything like that)

The title of my book is Cars Cars Cars. The main characters are named David and Sam. My story is funny because David and Sam do a lot of crazy things. The reader will not learn something from this because it’s just funny and adenturus. The setting is mostly at a car rcing track or David and Sam’s house. My story is mostly about how really expensive cars appear in David and Sam’s driveway every day. Such as Lamboghinis. The problem in my story is that David and Sam can’t figure out how the cars are getting there. Hope you have fun reading my book!

Right now I’m working on a story about a girl and her younger brothers. and when her younger brothers get kiddnapped she’s the only one that can save them from a teribble escaped murderer/kiddnapper.I show what I write to my friends, Katie and Kendal,and they say I should get it publeshed but I don’t know how to.
Then I’m working on what I want to be a seris about a girl that finds out that when she was born she was dying and when the docters couldn’t fix her and said she was dead a vampire came and gave her some of its life making her hair turn from brown to black on will and giving her powers and later on in her life a boy comes up to her and tells her that she is a vampire and that he needs her help.

I have the idea for a book about a world underneath our world and a boy named Charlie is the ruler of it even if he doesn’t know about it. That world underneath our feet (I named it Mantage) is in danger of being found so one of the inhabitants Paydi comes to find Charlie and bring him back to keep Mantage from being found out.

I have a book idea about the future about 100 years from now. By just asking the government will geneticly alter you if there’s something that you don’t like about yourself. Some people love the idea of changing themselves to be “perfect”. Others think its a horrible idea and plan to out a stop to it one step at a time. Step 1: dive down from helicopters and begin to putting signs and banners up that say “THE REBELION HAS BEGUN”. Step 2: avenge there leaders suposed death. Step 3: prepare for war against the government.

Star Wars VII: The Hidden

Gunshots filled the air as Princess Leia fled the city of Macchu. “C’ mon, c’mon!” she muttered as her blaster stubbornly refused to work. There it was! The ship that would be her only escape! So near, but so were the gunshots! “Stop her!” a voice boomed behind her. Leia’s feet yearned to stop running, but she knew to stop would be certain death. The Macchu Air Ship Dock (MASD) was so close the sound of rumbling engines filled her ears.

“You are sure your men have tracked the Princess?” “Yes Master.” “Very good. Your payment will arrive shortly” “Yes Master.” And with that General Kane left the robed man’s chamber “Ha,ha,ha!” he chuckled sinisterly, “Princess Leia is as good as mine!”

Minutes went by… Then hours. Still no help came. Before she knew it, night had fallen, casting shadows on the bloodstained ground.
Each passing breath was agony; she could feel the thick warm blood oozing from the fatal wound in her side. But aside from the pain, all she could think about was that old homeless man in the gutter, back home, all those years ago. He had been right, when he had said that the one she trusted the most would betray her, and she would pay dearly for it. It had scared her-so much that she had pushed it out of her mind.
But he had been right. And now, all she could think about was Brayden, the boy who had called himself her friend…and just as willingly, taken her life.

I have an idea for a book about three teens who have different powers. One is super strong and can fly, One can run super fast and another can disapper and reapper suddenly in a different place. Even though they have normal lives like everyone else one boy finds out that they have powers and finds he can hear and see things up to 100 miles away! So they have to band together and beat an evil villan that can take their super powers away from them. But I need a name for the villan and I need a title. Could you guys help me?

Has anyone here read any on the Narnia books? (They are some of the best books!) I am going to make a series that Narnia inspired me to write called The Witheresby Chronicles. William, Emily,Timmy and Susanna are on summer vacation when they go to their summer mansion, there they fin adventure and a world they didn’t even know existed!
I know this book is going to be set in the 1900s probably around 1915. Any suggestions on a good time period for mansions, carriages and other things that might be more old-fashioned?

World War II was from 1939 through 1945. I’m thinking a little earlier than that, since they aren’t going to be kids from the war going to the countryside for safety, they’re just on summer vacation. I still need a name for the magical land.

Yea actually i have a few ideas…
my first idea is about this girl who is in an accident and she goes deaf. the ebginning is ok but i nees some help with the plot. any ideas???
Also, a few weeks ago, i had an idea. why not write a book that somewhat goes along with the transition that i had going from catholic school to homeschooling. itll be the exact same story that happened to me, except ill use different names for me and my family and friends. so far its coming along good.
have you been homeschooled you r whole life or have you been to school before???
DolphinDreamz

I went to a private preschool, but went to public school Kindergarden-2nd Grade. I have been homeschooled from 3rd grade through now. I like your ideas for books. For inspiration on your book about the deaf girl try reading Hurt Go Happy.(It was recommended to me by a friend)I’m reading it currently. Have you already thought of a name for the other ‘you’ yet? I could help you woth it if you haven’t yet.

oh kool… i went to school up until 6th grade.
i will start a search for that book you recommended. maybe that will help. thanks!!!
well since my real name is chloe, i was thinking to have another name that started with “c” too. i was thinking maybe claudia or something. if nothing else sparks interest, i will just write it in 1st person (you know, using “i” insead of a name).

while you are writing your book, dont try to get it perfectly right the 1st time through. write a draft, and then use that as a guide to make your story even better. go over it two or three times. hopefully, that way, you will eventually find the right words to express yourself.
and dont put so much perssure on yourself!!! all books are different and there is no right or wrong way to do it!!!
if you need more help, just give a yell!

Well, you get used to it after three years! !

P.S. To stop just push both skates out, scraing the ice. This will slow you down and eventually stop you.

The worst thing is there is also a spy for the scientist and one of the heroines (Nephthys) falls in love with him! Can the world get any worse?

I have written a story about a twelve year old girl named Heather, who is also a sorceress, because I prefer the term sorceress,(it sounds more magicy and mysterious, doesn’t it?) who saves the world with the help of her friend, a South African foreign exchange student. She had to at least live somewhere in Africa, because she needs to come from the same place Swing Low Sweet Chariot was written. I thought it was Greece at first, you know, ’cause of the chariot thing. But then I saw in my flute book that it was African, so I had to change it. She started off being Ehtiopian, but I needed to use an African country that I knew the language of, and since I know a guy from South Africa, I knew what language they speak there. Anyway, now that you know why Jordan, (that’s her name.) had to live in South Africa, I’ll tell you about the story. Her art teacher is planning to dominate the world, so they both have to defeat her, and a jerky kid I based on my two biggest enemies. The police catch the art teacher, but the cops tell her that she is part of a group like the Death Eaters in Harry Potter. Her principal tells her that she and Jordan are the Chosen Two. One of them has to kill the other like in Harry Potter, and it will happen three years later. Not Heather and Jordan, but the leader of the evil group her art teacher belongs too. It was a choice between the two magic numbers, 3 and 7, and they didn’t need seven years of mental preparation. This is the first story I’ve ever finished. I’ve started writing another one, what happens when Jordan takes over the story, next year. I’ve gotten the first two sentences done, what an accomplishment.

Cool Nephthys/Isis! It’s so hard to find girls who like Star Wars! I like your idea for a book! I personally love spy/mystery books! I kind of gave up on my 7th star wars book though… I didn’t want to at first but there had already been at least 3 people who had carried on from where Return of the Jedi left off. I am now working on 4-5 books. (I’m not sure about one of them.) Tell me if you like these ideas…

The Witheresby Chronicles

William,Emily,Timmy and Susanna think it’s going to be an average stay at their family’s summer home in quaint Victorian-Age England until Susanna discovers a secret tunnel in her room, she then discovers a new land with talking animals called Animalia. Soon after William, Emily and Timmy follow suit and are bewildered at the vast land of Animalia. Will their greedy housekeeper betray Animalia for money? Will the Witheresbys be able to avert the Great War in the making? Will they even survive? Find out in The Witheresby Chronicles…

SPACE CAMP

Cynthia is dissapointed when she can’t go to Moon River Adventure Camp with her friends, instead she had to go to Space Camp at the Halo Space Center. Thinking that this will be her most boring summer yet she is shocked when their supposedly rocket simulator is a real rocket! Shot up into space with only a limited supply of food and water will all 7 kids survive? Most importantly of all, was it really an accident that the rocket wasn’t a simulator?

Snowed In

Mia’s on her way to Alaska to meet her Mom who’s working as a missionary to the Eskimos when her plane crashes in the middle of nowhere. With the pilot dead and her only company her dog, Sally. Will Mia survive the Alaskan wilderness with only God as her guide? Will anyone ever find her?Find out in Snowed In…

The Wimberly Wood

Everyone in Kai’s village has always been afraid of the Wimberly Wood that bordered where they lived. People went in and never came out. Even if they did they were so stunned they couldn’t talk about or had gone mad somewhere inside the mazelike forest. But one day when Kai’s mother is sick Kai must ventire into the Wimberly Wood to find the Golden Orchid which nectar can cure all illnesses.

Sydney on Her Own

Foster kid Sydney Johnson had no family, no home, and has been moved from foster home to foster home in search of the perfect family. Finally she decides to run away, her oppurtunity comes on a class field trip to the aquarium. She lives at the aquarium avoiding the night guard and steals snacks from the concession stands. Suddenly one night she hears of a heist to steal the aquariums famous and rare Indigo Shark. Will Sydney be found? Will the Indigo Shark be stolen? Find out in this book!

Please tell me if you like these ideas! (I have created all of these story plots so please do not use them for your own story-writing purposes. Thanks!)

To DolphinDreamz:

I don’t think you should give up on the seventh Star Wars. But that’s just me. I would probably just write a story about Obi-Wan when he’s a Padawan. Maybe I’d call it Star Wars: Episode 1/2.

Here are a couple of my stories.

(Trying to think of a title)
Chloe watches the beatiful Alyssa do ballet one day in the theater, and when she asks where she learned such beatiful dancing. Her life gets insanely more comlicated when Alyssa reveals that some girls were not born on this planet. Instead, they were born Zyrgia, a planet in the far reaches of space. They need to learn the skills to survive before they come back. And one of those skills is, yes, ballet.
Chloe needs to learn these things.

The Stars are Shining
There is great peace in the land of Otherworld. The Otherworld is rich in green pastures and azure lakes. And yet, Lindsey wishes for the outside world. A trip out of the Night’s Gate should garuntee that. Will Lindsey find her way back, after she is transported to 21st century, New York City?

Graceful as a Stream
Bella lives in Yosemite, and when she finds the nymphs who are there, she learns ballet to charm the Greek gods. She needs to protect the environment, for her friends.

Lyght and Dark
Artemisa and her sister, Sonja, are the sun and moon goddess. When Lord Darkholme is going to end the world, they need to stop it. Will they do it in time?
DolphinDreamz
July 9, 2010, 8:48 pm

I like your ideas! The Stars are Shining sounds pretty cool! I don’t think I will completely give up on the 7th Star Wars but I will do it for fun, not for being published like at first I wanted too. Are you published? I have one of my poems published. (If you go to the April poem listing then look at the one by me called Winter Song you will see it!)

WELCOME BACK STARZ321! I was beginning to wonder if you’d moved to Alaska! Do either of you like to write poetry? Oh, I had another ice skating competition in June and got 7th and 2nd. Nephthys/Isis do play any sports? My choice for a preview would be the ballet mystery one. Possible names: The Discovery, Ballet Secrets, Secrets in the Air, Not What It Seems: How My Life Got Extremely Complicated (If it’s in 1st person)
I am thinking about writing a book about a girl who is walking her sister on a horse when she falls of and dies. She then swears to never go near a horse again, but one day she meets a wild stallion she names Miracle. Will taming the wild horse renew her love of horses or is it just too much?

Hey people! So I have serious writers block. I can usually come up with ideas by just writing a sentence, but I just can’t find anything. I’m not asking for story ideas, I just want to know if anyone’s got some ideas for getting rid of writers block. Thx in advance. TTYL!!

To smabby1210: just write something that is randomally crossing your mind. Hamsters, how hot that guy is that lives down the street, how wars are absolutely stupid,bunnies, I WANNA HAVE A VAMPIRE BOYFRIEND LIKE BELLA, Spagetti and meatballs is my favorite food in the entire world…you get the idea. And then just randomly smush it all together.
The hot guy who lives down the street is a vampire who now is your boyfriend (like in TWILIGHT.) And you two now have to stop the hamsters and bunnies who are fighting a war over spagetti and meatballs which is stupid…actually all wars are stupid…

And then you write it out. Hopefully that’ll help!

Tell me your story idea if my method works!

Here you go Starz321:

A thousand conversations flowed all into the distinct buzz that marked the sound of a party. The sky had lost it’s flame from the sunset a long time ago. It was too early for the moon to be shown, though. Couples were dancing while the DJ played his songs.
Then out of the blackness, a figure approached. No one saw her, for she had a cloak, black as the night itself. A pale, almost silvery, hand reached out from the cloak’s many folds, and made a small gesture. All conversation halted. The CD stopped, and time seemed frozen. In a quiet, low voice the figure said, “You’re late.”
Another figure approached from the opposite side of the plaza.
In an equally low voice,their voice even,” I’m sorry. I had to check the cloud cover. We need the cover. Don’t blame me you had more time than I do.”
They both laughed and ran toward each other.
As they ran, their hoods fell free. As they did, the area lit up like somone had turned a light on.
They met in a hug that could’ve defined hug itself. “It’s been so long, Sonja,” the silvery one murmured.
“Oh, I know, Artemisa,” Sonja said.
They pulled apart.
“But you know why we are here,” Artemisa said.
Sonja’s eyes, like the sun itself, dimmed.
“Darkholme.”
She said the name like a curse.
“Yes, the Black Holes are gathering. We will need to go underover at this school. Or else, Earth falls.”
Sonja nodded.
“We should go,” Artemisa said.
“Okay, but can I ask you something?”
“Sure.”
Sonja’s mouth turned into a smile.
“Which one do you want?”
Artemisa gaped at her in disbelief, knowing what she meant.
“The world is just possibly about to end, and you’re asking me which boy I want!?!”
“You said you would.”
There was a pause.
“Fine, then. That one there.”
She pointed.
“Good choice,”she said, approving. “As for me, I pick that one over there.”
Silence.
“And now we go.”
They stepped backward to the edge where they had been before.
This time, Sonja made the gesture.
The party resumed.
Both stepped back into the cloud bank behind them.
A minute later to the oohs and ahhs of the partygoers, the full moon appeared behind a tree, shining brightly like never before.

So tell me what you think, anybody!

I have one about a girl who loves to read, but is in an accident and becomes blind. It takes place in the time when Braille was invented.

Another one is about a kid who is murdered and must journey through the underworld horrors to move on to the Egyptian “Next Life.”

Yet another about a magical world seperate from ours. (OK I admitt, it is common. But I have my own special twist on it.) The world is in danger from an ancient evil and the two kid rulers are the ones who have to battle it. I hope to make this one a trilogy.

And another during medival times, where a brave knight leaves his family and friends to get revenge on the people who killed his brother.

Now,anyone who’ve I’ve (hopefully) intrigued, please write back saying which one you want to hear an exerpt from!!!

Nephthys/Isis – WOW that is amazing!!! Keep up the good work!!! And ohmigosh, I’ve read Spilling Ink a few weeks ago, and it was by far the best instruction book I have ever read in my WHOLE life!!! I reccomend it it anyone who has the slightest notion of wanting to be a writer!

DolphinDreamz – Thanks!!
While we are on the subject, have you ever read any poems by Edgar Allen Poe? I like his stuff, although some of it is a tad creepy.

smabby1210 – When you get caught in the nightmare of writer’s block, quit working on your story and take a long walk. Think about something different for a while. Read a book. Maybe you will get some ideas from there.
I also second what Nephthys/Isis said. Write whatever comes to mind (even if it doesn’t make any sense at all.) Your sure to get an idea then.
(Oh yea, you could also tell us Dogeared people about your plot. We’d love to help!)

To starz321: All of the stories you are doing sound absolutely amazing!!!
My vote is I would rather read about a kid living in some random person’s attic.
To DolphinDreamz: I am really sorry about not updating. I know your vote is Secrets in the Air, but 6th grade started!!! Maybe I’ll be able to get to it soon.

Spilling Ink rocks!!!

Nephthys/Isis: I think that sample of your book sounds intriguing. I’ll try to check out Spilling Ink.

Starz321: I would rather hear about someone in a library. Some of Edgar Allan Poe’s poems give me chills. I LOVE the idea you had about the blind girl. (It would be SO cool if she meets Louie Braille in the book)

heya guys I just read all ur comments and it took me 45 minutes! I lurve writing AND reading books! I always start writing books but I never finish them because I always come up with more ideas! right now im trying to right a book about a family that go on a month cruise and their ship crashed and when they wake up ion the morning their floating on their beds in the sea and she cant see anyone and then this black dot starts floating towards her and she thinks its a shark so she uses her hands as paddles and then the black dot catches up to her and it ends up being her teenage sister in her bed still asleep. when the teenager wakes up they decide to paddle to a distant island and finally they get there and she goes into the forest to find food and she finds a little puppy and she names him Milo. I actually have a puppy called milo so datz how i decided to have a puppy in it. trust me but every one of my stories has an animal in it. im not sure wat shud happen next and i dont know shud i publish it or not cuz i think itz gonna be bad but im gonna post it on here and u can comment to me and tell me wat u think wen its done. im scared of showing my frends and family my stories so sometimes my sisters and my brother try to steal my stories to read them. wat shud i do to keep them safe or shud i just let them go? im scared to read them out in class even though there is only 11 of us and sopmetimes i dont even want to show my teacher. wat shud i do?
Nephthys/Isis

To iLUVbooks: It is scary. But actually, you can ask people for comments. I always got really scared by sharing my stories. Even today, I wrote a poem with a friend, and neither of us wanted to share it. And if you still don’t feel comfortable, you can always hide between the mattress and the box thingy in your bed. Or in your pillow. Or put it in plain sight, under your homework for school or something.

To DolphinDreamz: I know I havn’t given you your preview choice, but I kinda lost interest in it.

I started working on my spy story though! Yay! Record Achievment! Victory Dance!

Thank u Nephthys/Isis. dat means a lot to me and good idea bout where to hide it but im afraid because everyone might think that its bad. i want to get it published but if my frends read it and think its bad they wont like me and my family would read it to and den dey wud tease me. im confused and dont know wat to do and im not sure wat shud happen next in my story and no matter where i hide it my brother and sisters still find it. and since my sisters r older than me dey luv to tease me but my brother doesnt as much since hes younger. im ten and the second youngest in my family so everyone is quite old in my family the oldest child being 25. 25 sister of mine used to like writing stories wen she was my age too and den she lost intrest and im afraid i will lose intrest too but i dont wanna lose intrest cuz everyone says dat me and my sister r really alike. thx for de encouragement. now wen i finish my island story im gonna show mom but only mom. thx. from iLUVbooks

Oh my gosh, I feel your pain, iLUVbooks! my siblings are always trying to read my stories!!! I SOMETIMES show them my stuff so they’ll leave me alone, but there are some I am keeping for myself. I hide the rest of my stuff way in the back of my closet. Personally, I love sharing my stories with people I don’t know, like on blogs, so I don’t get offended if they critisize it. We on the Dogeared blog would love to hear your stuff!!! Don’t be afraid to ask us for opinions or encouragement!

Dolphindreamz, this is for you:

I want to scream! Can’t they understand how much I am hurting inside? I won’t ever be able read again!
As I go upstairs to my room, I trip over every step. In my fury, I miss the door and run into the wall. Stupid eyes! Everything is always black, still, quiet… Why couldn’t I have died with my parents? Without my books, I don’t know what to do. Tears well up and I collapse on my bed. I cry myself to sleep.

“I have good news, though. Right now, a certain man is trying to invent a system for the blind to read…”
I sit bolt upright in bed, John’s words echoing in my head, from yesterday. In my anger, I had blocked him and his words out. Could it be? Could someone be inventing a new system for the blind to read? Is there hope after all?
“That’s what I must do,” I say outloud. I must find this man, and find out if it is true. What had he said his name was? Oh yes, Louis Braille.

That was the blind girl story, in case you forgot. Hope ya like it!!

I am currently writing a ton of books: Space Camp, The Witheresby Chronicles, A Warriors Book, The Wimberley Wood, Sydney on Her Own, The Kai Chronicles (If you like Avatar: The Last Airbender that book is for you) and Snowed In. PHEW! I know- I’m in way over my head! starz321: I absolutely LOVE your sample of your book! Keep up the good work! GylfieTheOwl: I did that with one of my books too!

January 19, 2011, 8:24 pm

Nephthys/Isis: Here is a little sample from Space Camp:

The car sped down the highway with me in the backseat. I was watching the scenery fly by the car in quick succession, “We’re here Cynthia.” Mom saud from the driver seat as we pulled into the HALO Space Center parking lot. All of my friends had gone to the new cool camp called Moon River Adventure Camp. The only thing was it cost $200 a week and my family just couldn’t afford it. The space camp at the HALO Space Center on the other hand, was only $40 dollars a week and it was either that or staying home all summer while all my friends were at camp. I chose Door 1. I jumped out of the car and waited for Mom to gather he stuff, turn off the car, shut the door, lock the car, make sure she had everything and walk over. We entered the lobby and walked over to the check-in desk for the camp. A lady with a blonde ponytail checked me in and told me where to go so I could meet the counselor. “Have a nice time!” Mom said as I started through the maze of hallways, looking at all the exhibits as I went. Then a big pair of doors appeared in front of me. I walked through them and gasped at what I saw, a giant room with a space simulator, life-sized model of a rocket, and machinery everywhere. “Ah, you must be Cynthia!” I turned to see a man who must’ve been in his late twenties standing wiht a group of kids. To my surprise there were two other girls, I had been worried I would be the only girl. “Yes,that’s me.” I replied and was greeted with awkward silence. “Well,” the man said breaking the tension, “let’s get started on our tour.”

Hope you liked it! DD

Hey Guys!
I am new here, but I am not new to writing. I have a single folder on my computer stuffed with story ideas and I have one I have turned into a novel. I am still writing it and it is over 30,000 words right now.

I am going to post a bit of it and if you like it, please let me know and I can send you a link to my story’s website.

Oh and BTW: All stories posted are copyrighted by me. If you copy them and claim them as your own, you will get a HUGE lawsuit and I have proof of my claims as first author (dates, character and story outlines). Just letting you know… be warned.

Well, Enjoy!

Chapter One:

She screamed in mortal agony, but she knew that her screams did not fall on sympathetic ears. This was where she needed to be the most fearless and without pain, but she was living in pain and fear in the horrible prison. Another wave of pain entered her blood stream and raced around her body, leaving a feeling that she was on fire and burning from the inside out. It was poisoning her mind, her heart and her soul. She knew she would never be the same, if she did get out, of which the chances were dwindling. As she tried to hold back another scream, her field of vision began to fade. The last she saw before fading away was a weredemon, taunting her and… she didn’t know what else because her conscienceness slipped into the past and she began to relive what she had done….

She was much smaller and she could feel the arms of another human begin holding her, and the gentle, but quick motion of the person walking. She turned in her sleep and drank in the peaceful, sweet scent of an elderly woman. She was handed to another person, a young man this time.
“Demetré, she needs caring for.” the woman told him.
Andrea, for that was her name, was carried into the nursery and given to the nurses to be cared for. After a bath, a feeding and getting some new clothing, she was lain down in a crib next to a rambunctious little boy.
“Shh, Aidan.” whispered the nurse. “Your destiny will soon unfold. Sleep.” And Aidan closed his golden eyes and fell asleep. Hearing the gentle rise and fall of her neighbor’s breathing, Andrea soon fell asleep too.

Here’s a preview of my first chapter of the spy story:
PLEASE NOTE: THIS IS NOT THE FULL CHAPTER. I REPEAT. THIS IS NOT THE FULL CHAPTER.

“Where is it? Danged thing.”
I silently cursed my iPod.
I reached into The Box, fishing around for it. Of course, it was probably buried under my German dictionary, my South African flute, 2 pairs of sunglasses, 3 pocketknifes, and lock picksand…well, you get the general idea.
I also have several illegal weapons in there, so don’t even think about going near it.
As soon as I found it, (Under the laptop and Danish copy of William Shakespeare’s Hamlet, by the way. Figures.) I scrolled through my playlist.
Now, I have a couple rules about my iPod.
#1: Absolutely NO cuss or swear words.
#2: Must have Broadway.
#3: Must have nature sound.
#4: Must have Vocal Majority.
#5: Must have Simon and Garfunkle.
And finally, number 6,
If it can make me dance, it’s on my iPod.
I listened to my favorite song, Like a Bridge Over Troubled Waters by Simon and Garfunkle, when a VERY angry voice behind me said, “No you don’t!”

Constructive critism appreciated.

I just started a new book it’s called the ‘Orehrepus Academy for the Gifted aka Superheroes in Training’The book is about a girl named Katy who has invisibility powers and she has to be transfered to the school because of her always skipping class. At the school she meets lots of other girls who are just like her and they quickly become friends. One day Katy is selected for showing promise as a superhero and is moved to the superhero in training class. The school isn’t without dangers though- the government- curious as to where it’s money is going has sent kid spies to the school to see what it’s using the money for. Now Katy has to be careful who she can trust because if the government became aware of kids with superpowers they would try to experiment on them… or worse.

I also have several illegal weapons in there, so don’t even think about going near it.

#1: Absolutely NO cuss or swear words.
#2: Must have Broadway.
#3: Must have nature sound.
#4: Must have Vocal Majority.
#5: Must have Simon and Garfunkle.
And finally, number 6,
If it can make me dance, it’s on my iPod.
I listened to my favorite song, Like a Bridge Over Troubled Waters by Simon and Garfunkle, when a VERY angry voice behind me said, “No you don’t!”
Callie’s eyes seemed to be boring a hold through mine.
“You are NOT going to the orientation looking like that.”
“They won’t care. They never care.”
“I care.”
“Please,” Katie said. A note of tension crept into her voice. “We’ll be late!”
“No, we won’t,” we chorused at her.
She sighed. “They one thing you guys agree on just has to be your timekeeping,” she muttered.
We both glared at her with our ‘I’ll kill you just as soon as I kill Callisto/Nike’ look.
“Come on,” I said. “The new kids coming in won’t care if I wear jeans and a T-shirt to their orientation.”
“Yes, they will.”
“Maybe you do, Callisto. But they don’t.”
“DON’T CALL ME CALLISTO!”
You can guess that most of our conversation consisted of this.
“Guys-”
Katie tried to intervene, but Callie was in the middle of yelling at me.
“FINE!”
We both stared at her. See, usually, Katie is a pretty level-headed person. She usually doesn’t blow up.
“WE ARE GOING TO BE LATE! AND SO HELP ME, IF I HAVE TO DRAG YOU THERE, I WILL.”
Her blue eyes blazed, and instantly, or fashion issues were forgotten. Thirty seconds later, we were on our way.
We were only seventeen seconds late, but you should’ve seen the look on our headmaster’s face. He’s my stepdad, and I often have dinner with him Saturdays while I’m at school, but right now, I was just another of his students.
But then, my dad and him both had been late once.
Stop it, I thought.
I shoved out the unwelcome memories. Besides, Dave’s speech had begun.
“Welcome to New Tech@Coppell High School. Some of the older students know exactly how new-” here some snickers broke out, and amused looks were exchanged”-and then you younger ones don’t.
“And since a select few of their party displayed such excellent punctuality, the sophomores will do the actual orientation for the freshmen.”
The entire ninth grade turned to glower at us three. Callie should have been concerned about her own personal health and safety right then, but she just simply smiled and said, “Fine. As long as you tell us when he’s coming.”
The entire sophomore class’s look changed from anger to surprise. I felt shocked myself. What did she mean?
“Very well,” Dave sighed. “I suppose.
“For the first time in history, a new student is being taken on who is not a freshmen. He will be in the sophomore class.”
I felt like I had been punched in the stomach and been tripped. Whoever he was, he was making history in this school. And he hadn’t even crossed the threshold yet!
“Now off you go, Miss Odgen. You do have a freshmen orientation to do.”
There was a huge scraping sound as the chairs were pulled back.
We all filed into the hallway, and the junior and senior years headed back to their dorms, while the freshmen milled around, between sophomores who were really, really reluctant to do this.
“How did you know about that guy?” I whispered to Callie.
She shrugged. “My parents were the people that found him.”
Just before 8:00 P.M., Callie cleared her throat, and started.
“Like our headmaster said, welcome to New Tech. And as he hinted earlier, you guys don’t really know exactly how new. Let me explain.”
She took a breath and continued.
“To be down to the point, we receive the newest technology the government can offer. We take their products and improve them.
“Our alumni include some of the most famous names in history. Like the ones you hear about all the time in history class.”
Another sophomore named Troy Bourne chimed in. “We’ve built civilizations some of you can only dream about. We’ve gathered intelligence from every culture, and now, the future will lie in your hands someday,” Troy said.
I knew it was my turn. “And not only did we create the world of yesterday, but we have living legends out there right now.”
A girl named Elizabeth -according to her name tag- raised her hand. As soon as she spoke, I could tell that she was the brains of the group.
“Does this mean-” she started, seeming to not want to end her question.
I grinned. “Yep. Welcome to spy school.”

Also, for Secrets in the Air, DolphinDreamz, I got thinking. Why only girls? Why not guys? So what if Chloe and Alyssa came from a planet where the females of the Zyrgian (it would be called Zyrgia II) culture go to live ’cause the guys run the government and think the women are only good for cooking and cleaning and having babies and looking pretty? And what if that government doesn’t like Alyssa because she often vocally expresses her views, and they kidnap her to take her for “re-learning” and Chloe had to go rescue her?

I shall go and write a long and wonderful story called Secrets in the Air for you now, DolphinDreamz!

Here are some of my ideas
1. A group of robbers decides to run away to another city after a narrow escape from the police in a robbery that went horribly wrong, but something goes wrong with that too.
Name: Roadkill

2. I haven’t actually thought much of this story. I know it has something to do with a much disliked, unintelligent boy who forms a group called The Plastic Eaters.
Name: The Club of the Plastic Eaters

3. A man starts losing his money one day after his finger starts itching, through some accidents, misunderstandings and just plain bad luck. Plus, his name is Charles Manson and his fingerprints spell out the word “Misfortune”.
Name: Son of Man and Miss of Fortune

Maybe I’ll post the first sentences of each of these and some new ideas later. Till then, so long, kid.

Note on book no.3: I originally wrote it in Urdu when I was in grade 4. The main charcter was nameless, and it was really short. It just so happened that one day, our teacher asked us to write a story on superstitions and then, within a few minutes, I had created almost the whole story and later, I read it aloud to my class too. They told me that mine was the best story from the whole class. By the way, I think I must have changed the title at least a hundred times.

I’m back!
Anyway, I got a story idea for a version of Cinderella. It’s title is Emberava.

Emberava is the story of a teenage girl during her senior year of high school. The only way for her to escape her miserable life is the theatre department. She gains the lead in her class play, The Steadfast Tin Soldier, but is understudy to the lead in the school musical, Cinderella. Ani, a rebellious teen, takes Emberava under her wing and takes her to a school dance, where for the Midnight Waltz, the gentlemen have to choose to dance with a girl they did not accompany, Alexander Hayes dances with her. He doesn’t know who the girl he danced with is, but he’s never felt this way about a girl before, making his controlling girlfriend, Dana Hyden, jealous. Dana breaks her leg at a volleyball meet, and so she cannot make Cinderella as the lead, making Emberava the star. Dana finds out that Emberava is the one who danced with Alex, and she convinces Emberava’s stepsisters to lock her in her room the night of The Steadfast Tin Soldier and Cinderella. What will happen? Read Emberava to find out!

I love to write. It’s my favorite hobby. I am writing two books now. One is for my cousin for a Christmas present and the other I’m making with my friend. It is so much fun and I wish to be an author. My Languge Arts teacher says I am one of the best writers in my class. I wish I could publish some of my creations. That would bee a dream!!! I’ve had other dreams; this one’s my top by a landslide. Ever since my teacher said how good I was, I’ve been writing and writing!! Well, wish me good luck. Soon, some of you might see a new book in stores by me!!!

November 29, 2011, 5:25 pm

Man! I love to write; I have so much in my brain of what my next book is going to be about….you know, after i finish the other two. LOL

Chapter 1
It’s not just an ordinary day when you walk around to house, then find your little sister lying on the couch, half alive, half dead. That’s what happened to me on that night, that awful night, of September 18, 1990.
I walked out to the bus, my little sister, Brianna, at my side. It was an early, gloomy, Wednsday morning, fog still hanging in the air. Our gravel driveway crumbled as we jogged out to the end, to the waiting bus. I could see the impatient bus driver drumming her fingers on the steering wheel. I sped up, Brianna right on my heels.
We came onto the bus, and I sat down in the front, next to my friend since kindergarten, Holly Gibbs. She was dozing, her head laying on the window, her breath fogging up the glass. I wonder of what she was dreaming. I had the strangest dream the previous night. Of course, I always have the craziest of dreams: I was in my driveway, and there was large storm clouds in front of me. The thunder crashed and lightning flashed in the blakened sky in front of me. The weird thing was, the lightning was a light pink, coming from the ground, not from the sky. I was in a pirate costume, as if I was at a costume pary beforehand. My legs were walking, uncontrollably, to the way of the storm. There was the sound of footsteps around me, but no one was there. I was breathing slowly, lightly, as if there were no worries in my life. Rain started to pour down on me. Suddenly, a car had zoomed in front of me; i was hit. The man inside laughed evilly, and my head spun in circles. Breath leaving my lungs, i fell to the ground. My costume became a blanket and the world spun. The car disappeared; I then saw me, laying in a coffin. My parents, and Brianna were at my side. I was looking down at my unmoving body. I had died. I was looking at my body as if I were a soul.
“Jenna? Hey, are you ok?” Holly looked at my, shaking my shoulders.
“Huh? Oh, yeah yeah….I’m fine.”
“You were sleeping. You were mumbling. You sounded, um, uncomfortable.”
I looked at her, uneasily, my thoughts drifting back to that horrible dream. I turned and stared out the window, not listening not Holly, but listening to a small voice that just came into my head.
You will live, darling, it said to me. You will survive!

What do you guys think!? I think that’s my best work I’ve ever done!! Very good work for a 12 year old like me.

Hi, guys. I got a lot of good ideas from my dreams. Does anybody else get good ideas from their dreams? And doggielover4, that really seems like a good story, no? I got another idea for a book. It’s working title is Cassidy, and it’s about a teenage gangster named Cassidy in New York whose gang goes about doing good, but when the rival gang starts picking them off one by one, what will she do? This story actually came from a dream, but I mostly manipulated it to be a more less frightening story than what my dream was like (my dream actually scared me to pieces). I only went back to sleep because I was so tired (heh heh).

Nephthys/Isis, I’ve gotten ideas from dreams before too. Cassidy sounds like a cool idea, I think you should totally make it into book.

Well I love writing and writing books and reading of course It’s just I plan for my books to have 21 Chapters and 5000 pages and I end with 21 pages and 7 Chapters. I just finished a book today actually about a storm a girl and a penguin but it’s hopeless. When I’m older I’ll rewrite it so it’s long get It published and hopefully live my dream life as a writer…

There are so many people who want to write and it kind of makes me feel down. I’ve always wanted to be unique and always wondered if I should give up my dream to be something more unique. How many of the percentage of people who want to be writers become writers anyway? Most of them I think well I wish everyone who wants to be a writer the best
