I've wrote short stories averaging at a few per year since I was young and in school.
In highschool I wrote a report on the Kurt Cobain conspiracy (why his death WASN'T suicide) that was over 300 pages, I enjoy writing.
I was considered trying to write a book that was good enough to be published and actually be bought and enjoyed by many people, and even though I have wrote a lot of short stories (most of them under 100 pages) I've shared very few of them, most of my writing is to pass the time, however I shared a small section of one of my stories on here and seemed to get very good feedback, and put one of my full stories on a "writers" website and got amazing feedback there.
But like I said, I havn't read much since I got out of school and I have no clue what is popular, or what people enjoy these days.
I'm purely a fantasy writer, I have done a couple short stories about modern times, but they were horrible... So no matter what, I'm going to write a fantasy story... dragons, monsters, demons, knights, barbarians, giants, that kind of thing...
This post has 2 main reasons....
I already said one of them, which is wanting to write a story that would actually be published and sold in book stores...
The other reason is what I've been wanting to write... For around 2 years now I've wanted to write a story like a journal. So instead of going far into detail and telling every step the hero makes, I'm wanting to write a story that looks like a hero's journal... and a real one, not a new entry every single day, maybe make some of the journal entries weeks or months apart from each other, but still having enough detail to tell the full story of his adventures.
I remember when I was alot younger I read a book that was made of Kurt Cobain's journal, the font used in the book made it look hand written like a real journal (but it wasn't, it was a massly published book, not a real journal) and I REALLY enjoyed the experience of reading it.
But would that even interest people in todays world? I mean, I expect journals of celebrities, especially dead ones, are still pretty popular, but this isn't a celebrity, it would be a made up character writing about things that never really happened in the real world and even though I know I would enjoy writing that kind of thing as well as reading it, right now I'm pretty interested in publishing a book and actually selling it, so if this isn't the type of thing that people would be interested in buying and reading, it will just have to wait until I atleast attempt being a "real" author.
