@Shoryu MagamiWow, sounds very impressive and strikes a few chords with my 'origins' into this world I suppose.
I too have always loved to write and that's probably how I first got interested, like I said saw the forums on Runescape and what folks were doing - I suppose a basic version of this but in the RS world. If I recall my first one was called 'A Noob and his Dog' and their quest for the vastly powerful copper dagger. I bet that was pretty bad...
But aside from that I too 'GMed' a kind of story with two of my friends, initially we drew a fantasy map together and called it 'The Map'. Then me and one of the two continued for about five years, lost the map and just basically ran a RP in our heads talking. Did that from like 14-17 - cuz we were super cool guys.
But I've always loved to write too, constantly throughout the years tried to write something longer than a short story. Only succeeded once or twice, but I get distracted waaay to easily. That's why I like RPing on here, other people keep me interested and I'm less likely to go do something else suddenly if other people are counting on me to keep a story going. Plus I really struggle to find anyone in real life that wants to read anything I write - my friends are uncultured plebs I guess. My other half tries but has a very busy life. In a perfect world I'd be a writer, but I just don't think I've got the discipline to actually write something lengthy.
Along those lines I'd love to have a gander at anything you've done though.
@shylarah I shall have to have a looksee at this subeta you speak of. Not heard of such a place. Though an adult version of neopets fills my mind with slightly disturbing images, but I'm assuming/hoping its not quite like that.
I'm not quite sure how I first found this place. It was pre-guildfall, and boy was that sad times. I used to use this site as a notepad to store almost everything I wrote. I lost a lot when this place went down... Now I back everything up... hmm... actually I'm still using a PM to myself to keep lots of things I haven't backed up. You think I'd learn.
