Is it a horror story? Mirrors has always been associated w/ horror for me, lol :D Are there a lot of horror children's books around? I mentioned it's sort of a children's story because it deals with issues that I think kids might be dealing with. @fadel: only decent? Haha.

Okay, so I'm back to do another shameless self-pimping. I've mentioned this before, but I was considering switching genre to children's books, and so I've decided to try and write a children's story (sort of...). It's posted here in Wattpad: http://www.wattpad.com/59649907-behind-the-mirror This ...

OK, I think I'll keep up with it thanks :) I've been working on a children's story (sort of) for the past three days. I've posted it up now if you still want to see how I write my longer pieces. http://www.wattpad.com/59649907-behind-the-mirror?d=ud

Uhmm Hello there. I was just thinking before, May I ask you how to did u practice your diction/choice of words until you're able to write perfectly ? :) I wouldn't say my writing is perfect. There are still so many better writers out there. Hm. I've been reading a lot more than writing, I gues

guys, i'm wondering, what's the antonym for "angry fasting man"? is it "happy slowing woman"? Fasting is the practice of not eating, usually for religious purposes. The opposite of slowing would be speeding, not fasting. The opposite of fasting in this case would be... eating?

You can let me check on your work if you like too. I have a lot of interest with original stories from fellow writers though it's hard to find one person who really adores to write their own story. :) I've just written for few months, and I don't think I've done much in writing. I see that you m

John Green is the guy who wrote The Fault in our Stars. U should have known if u really likes writing I don't see the connection between this and that. So, since you really like writing too, you should know Cressida Cowell, Herman Melville, Edgar Allan Poe, and G.K. Chesterton? Haha.

I'm not interested in anything romance-related, mostly due to Hollywood. Got bored very quickly. Amateur is not the same as novice, in the same way professional does not equal to expert. It just means I don't do what I do for money. Not exactly original characters. Kyrin is mine, and I suppose, to

Oh God, I hate that thing. I haven't watched it, but every time I turn on the TV I see a darned ad about that movie and it annoyed me to no ends somehow.
