DOWN WITH THE GRAMMAR NAZIS!

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.

What to say, what to say… Ok, think I got it.
In general, I am the kind of person that sits in the rain, drinks out of bowls, and yells at inanimate objects. I talk to myself a lot, but don’t let that fool you… I am not a social person (socially awkward is an understatement :D). I, like so many others, am still waiting for my acceptance letter to Hogwarts. Some of my weaknesses include my fear of sock monkeys, my inability to breath under water, and the fact that I cannot move while I’m unconscious. I don’t like long walks on sandy beaches; I’d much rather walk through a cemetery at midnight.
On a more serious note, the two most important things in my life are writing and music. I am not the best writer by any means, but I love it. It’s like a pressure release valve in my head (very useful indeed). I cannot tell you how many stories I have started and have not finished. Most of my writing is done in the middle of the night (curse you, insomnia!). -
I’m a serially enthusiastic, caffeine dependent {web,mad,computer} scientist and {tech,scifi} writer. I work at the Mozilla Corp. (where they make Firefox), and I live in Livonia, MI, USA.
I was once a refugee from Ficlets, and those stories are now self-archived over at http://decafbad.com/skein/

A very strange man whose strangeness is only partially due to Asperger’s Syndrome. He is an English major and now a grad student, in case you couldn’t tell, fighting a constant struggle to set aside some little time for writing.

I’m a lubber not a writer.

“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.
However, I guess 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’ 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.

Master of the Armory and Chief Nibmaker of Our Strange and Wonderful House. It’s a pleasure to meet you.
Like many others in this community, I have no qualifications for writing except a head full of ideas and a passion for good storytelling.
You can find me at shusamchen@gmail.com, or you may bump into me elsewhere on the internet as HSAR.

I’m just this guy, you know?
-
I comment on what I love and what I hate. Mediocrity is the greatest crime a writer can ever commit.
-
My name is Emi. I welcome any constructive criticism because I know I need it. I love to read and write, among many other things.

Eternal I was made, and eternal I remain.

I love a well written story. Writing has never come easy to me. Time is my enemy and my friend.

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.

“The world is full of ugly things that you can’t change. Pretend it’s not that way. That’s my idea of faith.”
College-bound dork in Indiana. It’s a fun time.

I have consumed copious quantities of fiction. I would now like to offer some of my own. By joining into the creative cycle of giving and receiving, I hope to improve my skills as a writer, but also to improve myself as a reader.

Goals as a commenter:
1. Comment/Ficlet ratio = 5:1
2. Provide consistent feedback
3. Provide feedback to lightly commented ficlets
4. Comment on unfinished drafts.Goals as a writer:
1. Fully convey an emotion or idea (don’t force the reader to read a prequel or sequel to enjoy the writing)
2. Explore diverse formats (human interest, comedy, horror, sci-fi, fantasy, etc.)
3. Original Work /(Sequel + Prequel + Challenge) ratio = 1:1
4. Crowd-source writer’s block – publish unfinished drafts. -

Another one of the refugees from the old Ficlets site. See my old FICLETS HERE!
Not much to say about me really. I write. I play music. I write music. And I enjoy reading Ficly-Stories.I’ve been writing since high-school – which was so long ago, we walked to school in 4ft of snow with no shoes on and bread at the store cost a penny… ok.. .25 cents.. but i was able to get 10 candies for 5 cents.
SUCCESSFULLY COMPLETED AND WON NANOWRIMO 2008, by writing a novel over 60,000 words long called: Amethyst: Outer-Rim based on a ficlets series written here!
I’ve been bestowed the great honour of being part of the brother-and-sisterhood known as: The League of Awesome. Henceforth I shall bear the monicker: The Master of the +10 Guitar of Awesomeness!
