If you’re inclined, write sequels or prequels to anything I’ve done, and I always welcome comments and notes.

Accidental Rob is a husband, dad of 2, gamer, podcaster and casual writer (my sister’s the one with that talent). He is also known in certain circles as;
Lord-Governor Wavering Particle, Master of the Levitating Bun and Seneschal to the King of Shimmering Curtains.
I like to write science fiction and fantasy, mainly. I have a secret love for steampunk and superheroes, but also ninjas and super-spies. One day I shall endeavour to write a story containing all four.
-
I am not a writer. But since these stories are short I decided to give it a go. If you would like to write a prequel or a sequel to any of my stories, feel free. Also, if you have any words of wisdom to help me with my writing, it would be appreciated.

A sometime artist and writer, Lady Grey likes to sit in Idlewild and dream of the west wind. If thoughts are the children of an idle brain, then she has more than a foot in the gate of fantasy.

I’m 18. I live in Chicago, IL.
Uhhh I’m going to school for illustration, but sometimes I just, like, love writing.I was on this site all the time maybe two years ago, but I haven’t been checking routinely in over 10 months.

Kicking it at the University of Oklahoma. I like writing, science, almost all forms of music (literally), creating constructed languages, graphic/visual arts, and a good book. I will not hesitate in saying I am a Christian and I am darned proud to be an American.

Dr. Tim’s Neurotic Rules of Ficly Life
[Disclaimer: This is not intended to be binding nor in any way an expectation of general members of Ficly, league members, family members or wearers of Member’s Only jackets]
1. Comment to Story posting ratio must exceed 5:1. Goal is 10:1. In other words, I write a story then find five others (at least) upon which to comment before writing another.
2. For every solo shot or sequel of my own material, I must write a sequel or prequel to the work of another author. If I’m going easy on myself, participating in a challenge also fulfills this requirement.
3. If someone comments on one of my stories, I go find one of theirs upon which to comment. It only seems fair, and I like to think it encourages commenting.
4. Awesomeness is the goal, always. Call me on it when I fail, please.
5. Clearly mark mature content and err on the side of caution.
6. Golden Rule remains in effect for all sequels, prequels, and comments.

Follow me on Twitter: http://twitter.com/kaellinn18
I love to write. One of my life goals is to write a novel, but right now work, church, and family take up most of my spare time. This site helps me scratch that writing itch that pops up occasionally.
My policy is quid pro quo. If you follow me, I will follow you. It’s as simple as that! I’m all about building the community.
Want to write something with me? Send me a note! I’m up for pretty much anything.

J. A. Keane has spent the majority of his 18 years trying to act like a somewhat normal member of modern society, but seeing as nobody else seems to be acting normal these days (which basically makes the entire concept of “normality” redundant and nothing but a bad joke (my inner Comedian-from-Alan-Moore’s-“Watchmen” talking there)), he has decided to give up on that, and continue along his path of random offbeat-ness.
When he’s not doing that, he also likes to write long-winded rants on Tumblr, miniature rants on Twitter, medium sized rants on Facebook, and adamantly refuses to use LOLspeak (as he finds it annoying, and believes that it’s a slightly differentiated (but not THAT much, really, if you think about it) form of Newspeak).
And when he’s not doing any of that, he likes to write exaggerated biographies that are intended to make him sound more interesting than he actually is.
And after all that, he also really likes to end his website biographies on a joke.

I’m a student of software engineering from Lithuania. Even though my English isn’t really good, I’ll try my best and will improve it over time. I promise. If you find any mistakes in my stories, please point them out in the comments.

A writer who tries to explores the human heart, as passionately as possible.
Any criticism or advice would be greatly appreciated!

Hi. I’m Eric…
and I’m a PC.

Nothing much to tell, I love to write and can easily spend all my spare time doing it. Thanks Wil Wheaton for the recommendation!
Please feel free to give me feedback. I’ve also decided to do NaNoWriMo this year and will be using http://ficly.com/stories/15966 as the premise.

“If people never did silly things, nothing intelligent would ever get done.”
—Ludwig WittgensteinMy name is Wednesday, and I guess you could say that for the most part that quote personifies me. If there were no silliness in this world I would die.
Unfortunately, recently I have been suffering a nervous breakdown. I don’t mind saying that here. The people who know me I trust enough, and to the people I don’t – well here’s an insight. It’s not all shits and giggles on my side of the pond. Because as much as I’d like, life is not just silliness.
Cheer Captain of the High Seas in the League of Awesomeness.
‘Cheer’ suggested by ElshaHawk
Named ‘Jae’ by the marvelousness that is Mr.GabrielRest is not idleness,
and to lie sometimes on the grass
under trees on a summer’s day,
listening to the murmur of the water,
or watching the clouds float across the sky
is by no means a waste of time.

I dabble a little in a lot of things — writing, webcomics, gaming, photography, web design, music, and more. I’m also a full-time professional at Purdue University and a part-time farmer with 40 acres, 11 horses, a White German Shepherd puppy, five cats, 30 chickens, and far too much to do.

When they close the book on me what will they say?
To be honest, that book needs to be opened first and I’ve been a lackluster book owner thus far. The experiences that have defined this life have been wonderful and plentiful but I can’t shake the feeling that they will not truly ripen to full memories until they are committed to the page.
Hands and fingers walk the mind’s talk and I’m supposed to pull the strings. A lethargic and procrastinating puppeteer willing his will to be stronger.

The pen is mightier than the sword. How outdated. In the 1900’s, it would have been, “The typewriter is mightier than the machine gun.” But in modern times? “The word processor is mightier than the particle-beam weapon.”
I play video games, build things with Legos, and try to kid myself into thinking that I’m mature. I love dorking around with computers and I have a strange obsession with hats – nice ones, that is, no baseball caps. My dream is to either become a Masterbuilder or a drummer, and neither seem very close. Such is life.
Since joining Ficly, I’ve come to realize that I love playing off of other people’s work, reshaping their ideas to form some coherent things. Half my stories come either from challenges or from hitting the “Random Story” button and writing a sequel (I highly recommend this, the things that you’ll find are amazing!).

A no-name, aspiring author who can’t stop writing. Looking ahead, he strives for perfection. Shackled by various forms of entertainment, he dreams of success. Most stories here are an invitation to YOU, to join me in creating new stories, new worlds, and a different tomorrow.

In short, the Electric Hillbilly is a free and untrammelled citizen of the great state of Alabama, who lives in the hills, has no means to speak of, dresses as he can, talks as he pleases, drinks whiskey when he can get it, and fires off his rifle as the fancy takes him.

Hi, I’m Paul.
Winner of the 2009 All England Pro-Am Hikikomori Championship via Unanimous Disqualification for not getting out of bed and turning up. Currently studying for a Degree in Classics with a bit of Archaeology and Creative Writing thrown in for fun. Collector of bad films, reader of trashy vampire romance, writer of, so far, short stories and bad poetry.
Defeated the Spider-Queen of Mars in hand to hand combat for the Sceptre of D’Hash, but doesn’t like to talk about it.
Once loved a sparkly chested vampire so much the body glitter wore off.
Enjoying Ficly far more than is good for my assignment schedule.
Usually found hanging out round the northern end of Manchester, UK.

It is said that actions speak louder than words. Here instead, words do all the talking.

I’m open to any critiques, no need to whitewash it. I want to improve my writing and enjoy the flow of creative juices even if they go splat.
I joined Ficly to challange myself and break out of the writing box I’ve constructed over years of just “thinking about it” instead of expressing it through written word.
I live in Minnesota and love everything oriental including sushi and goldfish but not at the same time.

“It is not beauty that endears; it’s love that makes us see beauty.”
Leo Tolstoy, War and Peace (1869)
I’m an uncle, a brother, a son, a friend, a writer, a reader, a believer, a breather, a responsible constable, and a sensitive salamander.

Around the serpent’s tail can’t replace a single lover.Robert Bly
One of the most difficult things to say to another person is, I hope that you will love me for no good reason. But it is what we all want and rarely dare to say to one another— to our children, to our parents and mates, to our friends, and to strangers. Especially to strangers, who have neither good nor bad reasons to love us.

“Difference is a blessing, not a challenge. We define ourselves by knowing other people. We know our world by learning about difference. What is the word we often use? Tolerance. Is that a positive notion? Not really. ‘For the time being, I will tolerate you?’ I’m against that concept. It means difference is a threat. Difference is a blessing and you don’t tolerate a blessing. You embrace it.” — Mohammad Mahallati.

As a self-proclaimed Knight of Ficly:
I, Sir Bic, do solemnly swear -
To befriend those who befriend me
To follow those who critique me
To make my giving (my stories) but a tenth part of my gifts (my comments)
“Long live the land of Ficly!” – []o)
I strive for a 10:1, comment-to-story ratio, cause the math is easier.
I hope to have as many Ficleteer friends as I have Ficlet stories.
“Give me Ficly or give me death!” – []o)
