Dear random reader of my profile,
I'm never on this site, anymore. I'm still writing, but mostly it's for fanfiction, and that can be found out my fanfiction account:
Mother Nature's Daughter
I don't write orginal works anymore, I've put all my orginal ideas up for later, and the stories I wrote before have just been discontinued. I stopped, not because my passion for writing is gone--I still live for it, I assure you--but because there are still certain areas of my writing that needs improvement if I want to become a professional writer.
Which is what fanfiction is doing for me; I have really good friends over there that give me great tips, and every story I write helps me understand characters, plot, planning and dialouge.
I don't suck, I don't think, but I do know quite a few writers that have better skills than I do. I'm learning from them, though, and I'm getting better.
We still got some work to do, though. ;)
All the stories on this site will remain up, but I'm sure no one cares because no one reviewed hardly any of my stories. Because FictionPress sucks; no one is ever on here, anyway.
Be warned, though, that most of the stories aren't all that good.
On the other hand, I actually think some of my poems aren't all that bad. I really like many of them, and still continue writing poems quite often, though I don't post them up here anymore.
I guess the overall point of this is just to say that this account is pretty much inactive, so far as reviewing others stories, and posting new fics. If for some ungodly reason you feel you need to contact me, my email is: dreamergirl122@hotmail.com and I do have AIM, MSN, and Yahoo!, so just holler and I'll send you those.
Send me a PM if you must; not that I'm expecting you to. You can still review, too, if you liked a poem or something so much you had to say so. Or vice versa: perhaps you hated one of my works so strongly you had to review and tell me how badly I suck.
So, aside from receiving PMs and reviews (I won't be sending or giving any, sorry) this account is inactive. And, well, I doubt any PMs or reviews will be coming my way, so perhaps it's even fully inactive.
Good-bye,
-Sam
PS: I received some advice and I've learnt that posting works on the internet makes it extremely hard for that work to be published, and that I should post with caution.
That same source has told me that if posting on the internet is fine, and can be a useful tool, as long as you don't plan on publishing that same work later (which means I can continue FanFiction, since those characters, etc., don't even belong to me).
Now, none of these stories are being published. Ever. Most of them aren't even done, truthfully. So, I'll let them stay, is someone thinks they have tips to help me improve.
However, I am extremely proud of most of my poems (I can name a few silly ones probably written on sugar highs) and maybe one day I can afford to publish a book myself, holding these poems from my childhood (actually, "My Very Best" is already published (non-profitable to me) in the 2006 Fall version of "A Celebration of Young Poems").
Anyway, since I think that publishing my poems would be nice, I'm taking all of the poems (and the only thing that made this account worth anything, since the stories were awful) off the site. If there is anything you would like to see published in the years to come, I'd advise doing the same. Or at least considering it.
And now I'm leaving you again, before I can think of anything else to say.
