How to Write Books Good, Part 1


Thinking up the idea:
  • Think of an idea.
  • Lie in bed and think about the idea some more.
  • Dismiss idea.
  • Walk around house. Do menial tasks. Allow the mind to wander
  • When the mind has wandered around to an idea, stop doing menial tasks and pay attention.
  • Write it down.
  • Read it over.
  • Change it.
  • Lie down on sofa. Let idea form a story.
  • Dismiss idea. Hates idea. Idea is stupid.
  • Decide to write from the headlines. Switch on news. Read newspapers. Look for inspiration. 
  • Ebola, eh?
  • Brand new idea. A plague that wipes out most of humanity! The few survivors come together under some vague supernatural (religious?) pretence. 
  • But evil people have also come together! Drama! Conflict!
  • Realise your idea is The Stand, by Stephen King.
  • Read The Stand, by Stephen King.
  • Go back to original idea, decide it's good enough. 
  • Congratulations! You now have your idea!

(Hey Blake how art thou?)

John said...

Blake has mixed emotions right now.

Had an alright day but when I got home this came in through email from Rose.

"I've officially overdosed.

14 pills.

Because I can't take this anymore.

Call me an idiot, or naive, or anything you want... But I'm dying tonight.

And after today... That small flicker of a crush I had on you... It's gone.



My heart is aching... So are my lungs...

If this doesn't work, I'm hanging myself.

Just so you know"

I'm not sure if I should believe her or not...

Inky Flame said...

(Feck...
Okay
I dedicate this page to...*thinks* to puppies...and awesome writing techniques)

Matex Von Darkhour - マテクス said...

How long ago was that?

Inky Flame said...

(*gasps* no...nonono!)

Tanya Halcyon (Kas) said...

Blake...

It's true.

:c

Star Inkbright said...

@Blake: . . .
I'm sorry, but I don't even know anymore . . .
Just . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . yeah. I just . . . don't know what to say or do. :/
Sorry . . .

Dragona Pine said...

(I'm back. :) )

Star Inkbright said...

Hi again. :)

Dragona Pine said...

(That's the first time I've ever seen a pheasant in the dark. 0_0

It was rather surprising.

When you aim the torch to the side you don't expect to see a pheasant looking back at you. :S)

Star Inkbright said...

@Dragona: O_O It does indeed sound surprising. :P

Dragona Pine said...

(I like birds though, so it's all good. :) Idk which I prefer better, birds or reptiles... But they're both pretty cool. :P)

Mary Contrary said...

Sorry for vanishing

I had to do a thing

And then I upgraded my box
It is now space box

Plus, Tia, I added my email to my profile while I was at it, if you still want that? ^^




Rose :/

Star Inkbright said...

Reptiles are cool. :)
Birds . . . meh. I actually encounter them in life, so they kind of link into the every-other-creature-on-this-earth view, the one where I'm scared of any animals larger than a cat and have a mutual you're-okay-but-don't-come-within-an-armlength-of-me relationship with everything cat-sized and under. :P

Mary Contrary said...

I like reptiles and birds, too.
Good textures. :)

Dragona Pine said...

Inky Flame said...

(Tawnee appreciates peoples likings of reptiles)

Dragona Pine said...

(On one hand, reptiles have snakes...

But on the other, birds have penguins.

... And I don't think reptiles have anything that can beat a penguin. :/)

Inky Flame said...

(penguins are cute)

Dragona Pine said...

(Penguins are awesome. :P)

Inky Flame said...

(Rose called me Penguin...)

Matex Von Darkhour - マテクス said...

Even Derek likes Penguins... There was a conversation about them on twitter earlier

Dragona Pine said...

(I have the sudden urge to make an image of a penguin wearing N7 armour...)

Inky Flame said...

(that would be nice, Dragon)

Dragona Pine said...

(Food brb. :) )

Mary Contrary said...

*hugs Rose tightly*
Dying isn't your solution, Rose.
Please don't. :/

Inky Flame said...

(I'm okay Rhos *huggles tightly*)

Dragona Pine said...

(Brb.)

Garret Falcone said...

(*huggles tightly*)
Rose, something else i know that can help, do these five things everyday:
1:get up
2:have a shower
3:get dressed
4:eat some breakfast
5:go outside
(they may look like trivial things but I've learned from a course that they help and its been proven to help)

Garret Falcone said...

*food not breakfast)

Inky Flame said...

(Death.. If you are reading this
Don't you dare do it
We don't talk that much but that doesn't mean I value you less than any if my friends,
But somethig I live by, suicide eliminates the chance if things getting better...)

Dragona Pine said...

(I'm back.)

Inky Flame said...

(Welcomes Dragon 🐉)

Garret Falcone said...

(Hello Dragon.... How be you?)

Dragona Pine said...

(I'm fine, thanks, Garrett. :) Yourself?)

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

Yay he wrote.-Zaf

Garret Falcone said...

(I'm ok thanks Dragon *nods*)
(Hello Zaf how be you?)

Jemma said...

Something tells me that this is a process that every author alive has or will go through.

Queen Flora Ophelia of the Flowers; Leader of the New Land of Stickers; Prophet of the New Order; General of the Shadow People said...

Death, I don't know what you said but please, don't do anything. It would be such a waste.

Emerald Melody said...

I am so disgusted at this blog.

Rose tried to kill herself last night because she thought all the fighting that happened last night was her fault.

She loves this place, she has tried to fix this place because all her friends are here.
Like I have.

But I realise now that some people on this blog are just nothing but bloody right fighters who won't stop until they have proven their point or broken someone to the point of suicide.

You should be ashamed of yourselves. And I am going to make sure that Rose just has one important focus in her life. Which is her life because that girl is so important to me and so many others that it wouldn't be fair if we lost here.

Hate this fucking place sometimes...

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

Thats fine, take my friend away. I have it happen all the time. -Zaf

Mary Contrary said...

Please do, Em. :/

Matex Von Darkhour - マテクス said...

Zaf what are you even talking about, nobody is taking anything away, jesus.

Em you're right and ironically enough she cares about is making sure you're okay.

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

*shrugs* I dunno. I'm irritable.-Zaf

Inky Flame said...

(Yes Em please do)

Tanya Halcyon (Kas) said...

(I'm keeping quiet.)

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

I'm probably......Irritable.

I should go tweet that now....-Zaf

Matex Von Darkhour - マテクス said...

*hugs Zaf*

Inky Flame said...

(I don't know what to do anymore... Just sit an wait)

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

*hugs Matex*

I asked Derek to comment, he tweets, he should visit us. We never get recognition, not like the Good Old Days. I miss that.....

-Zaf

Chione Asahina said...

Hello everyone...

Chione Asahina said...

What was the fight last night... what happened?

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

Nothing, its in the past.

Inky Flame said...

(Hey Chi... *laus down in the corner*)

Snow said...

Remind me to show this post to my advanced english teacher today. XD

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

I should show this in AP English tomorrow, my teacher would get a kick.

Matex Von Darkhour - マテクス said...

Exactly, i feel the same way. It really does seem like the blog has been forgotten.

Oh. OH! YES!
"Ow what was that for?"
"Its doesn't matter, its in the past!"
LION KING QUOTES <3

Elleni the Ghost said...

But the past can hurt...

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

I think if Derek would comment, it'd help. He totally abandoned us. I feel neglected here. This is Minion abuse.

Can we even charge him?

I now charge him as Grand Mage of America.

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

*sticks dynamite on Derek and explodes him*

NO MORE NEGLECTING US!

Or more boom booms.

Matex Von Darkhour - マテクス said...

Oohhh yes the past can hurt.
But the way i see it, you can either run from it, or learn from it!!

Elleni the Ghost said...

You skyped with him. Please stop complaining.

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

Learning from....past works.

For example- Never let Derek control your fate, you either die, or end up with Serpine.

Elleni the Ghost said...

... What can I learn from it? That there will never be peace on this blog?

Matex Von Darkhour - マテクス said...

No Ellini. Thats not what Sikba says at all :P

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

There will, if everyone is willing.

Elleni the Ghost said...

What did he say?

Elleni the Ghost said...

...

I'm done.

Dragona Pine said...

(Penguin?)

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

PENGUIN!!!!!!!

Matex Von Darkhour - マテクス said...

*shh my phone spelt your name stupidly*

Also, Zaf, i do agree. I support this decision.

(And what the hell, dont attack her, thats got nothing to do with this. This is a complaint about blogland :c )

Chione Asahina said...

I read it. Tsk.

Dragona Pine said...

(Mass Effect Penguin. :D)

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

GRAMMAR ERROR: How To Write Books Good is grammatically incorrect, 'good' should be replaced with 'well'.

Matex Von Darkhour - マテクス said...

Well, im pretty sure he ducks under the staff, having learnt how to avoid trouble, and then runs off and says something like "i know what i have to do" , and then he goes and defeats his evil uncle.

The moral, obviously, is we should all band together, defeat the evil uncles, and my phone is retarded.

Elleni the Ghost said...

Zafira, I'll be holding you accountable.

I really need to close this window...

Elleni the Ghost said...

The evil uncle is among us...

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

I'm not accountable. I can't be....

*explodes*

Star Inkbright said...

*hugs Elleni*
Yeah. I get you.
Just . . .
Yeah.

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

No he isn't. If anyone says its me, I'll make you pay.

Chione Asahina said...

I hold Zafira accountable too. She always starts this. That's why Adra isn't fucking here. And i said that last time she started shit too. I agree with Blake and Trip. I love Adra.

Edward Fletcher said...

(Hello all)

Dragona Pine said...

(Hey, Star! How are you?)

Elleni the Ghost said...

THAT'S NOT WHAT I MEANT AS "ACCOUNTABLE"

Star Inkbright said...

Dragona, I keep forgetting it's you even as I look at you without your yellow picture. XD XD

I'm fine, thanks. :) You?

Chione Asahina said...

Yeah well, i did. Zaffy, you know how i feel about this. You know how everyone feels about this.

Edward Fletcher said...

(Good picture Dragon)

Elleni the Ghost said...

God, so sorry.
What I meant by accountable is that I will be there to make sure you do what you promised.

Star Inkbright said...

. . . But that penguin profile picture is very cool. :)

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

Point? I lost caring. You want to dwell on the past, be my guest. I'm moving on.

Inky Flame said...

(Hey Ed and El and anyone who came on
*resumes sitting in corner*)

Dragona Pine said...

(Thanks Edward. :D



Star - SORRY. I just had the urge to make a Mass Effect penguin and then was like hey penguin and then I decided to make it my picture and idk.

I'm fine, too. :) )

Elleni the Ghost said...

The.

Past.

Hurts.

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

Too bad. Deal. Just like everyone else.

You stay hurt, not my problem. You move on, good for you.

Edward Fletcher said...

(Dragona, how be you?)

Dragona Pine said...

(I'm fine thanks, Edward. You? :) )

Mary Contrary said...

(Folks.

Please don't fight over this. :/ )

Chione Asahina said...

Fuck off Zaf. You caused the fight last night, you drove Adra and you think well just fucking forget?! you fucking bitch.

Edward Fletcher said...

(Tired but fine thanks)

Chione Asahina said...

*looks at Taia and calms down*
Ok, sorry, i just had to say that because i wasn't on last night.

How is everyone?

Elleni the Ghost said...

*trying really hard not to explode*

John said...

*Hugs Chi*

Trust me, you're not the only one who feels like that.

Inky Flame said...

(I feel... Nothing)

Edward Fletcher said...

(Fine thanks Chie

Hello Chloe, how be you? Sorry, my battery died earlier)

Star Inkbright said...

"Why did you feel the need to kill someone?"

"Why do you need to keep bringing that up? I did it an entire week ago, it's in the past. If you want to dwell on the past, be my guest, but I'm moving on."

Just sayin'. :P

We can't let go of the past very easily. If I let go of the past all the time, I would be like that guy in The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy who doesn't believe in any of his memories. Every day, he picks up a pencil and a paper, and he puts them on top of each other and next to each other in different ways, and every day, he discovers that a line appears if he holds the pencil on top of the paper correctly, and he makes a pleased noise at this new discovery.
If we want to learn anything, we have to accept the past as true, or at least some of it as true, otherwise we will live the same day every day and never move on, never learn, change, grow.

However, the past is a guide, not a hitching post. Zaf's correct in saying that we shouldn't cling onto it. However, we shoudlnt' ignore it. If so, it counts for nothing and we may as well have not lived it.

I have a thing I like to do, and whenever something happens that may have gone nowhere, I think "Well, what did I learn from this?"
Even if I'm not asexual, and if I have to un-come out to everyone . . . yes, it'll make me look like a total idiot, and yes, I will feel liek a failure who overreacts all the damn time and can't trust her own judgement, but either way, this little discovery journey and the things I've found out the the knowledge and perspectives I've gained . . . if I never did the "maybe I'm asexual" thing, I would never have gotten there, and as such, even if I am overreacting, I'm glad I got here.
And I think there's something important in that. We should learn. Even if we have to take steps backward, we still learnt from taking those steps.

The past is important.

Inky Flame said...

(Don't worry Ed)

Matex Von Darkhour - マテクス said...

Chi, you'll find that Trip did a lot of provoking when it wasnt even needed. Please, stop being so rude. We are trying to make things better.

Star Inkbright said...

Chi, I understnad how you feel, trust me I do, but as proved last night, yelling and swearing for no purpose other that the satisfaction of your immediate emotions will help nothing. :/ *hugs*
If you need to yell and swear to satisify your immediate emotions, feel free to email me. I don't mind. :)

Jophiel said...

Chi.

Fuck.

Off.

And.

Forget.

Mary Contrary said...

(Fighting nor insults have solved anything so far. That's not changing... :/ ^^)

Chione Asahina said...

Sorry guys. But i've been on this blog for 3 years now. I know how perfect the blog used to be. I hate the fighting too. But Zaf is out of line. There was a time that Adra was all the time and used to RP with everyone and Zaf drove her away because Adra supposedly did something and Zaf held a grudge. Then Adra slipped further and further away untill she only came on to RP with Alastair...now you hardly ever see her. And its all Zaf's fault. Derek even wrote a post telling Zaf to stop, and has she? No. I hate her. I miss Adra...

Garret Falcone said...

(*picks up dragon the penguin and puts him in a box* that says:
to the zoo handle with care)
(*offers Chloe a huggle*)
(Hello Blake and Chi and Ed and dragon and Taia and El and anyone else here that I've missed)

Dragona Pine said...

(Guys, can we just stop all this? :/

Idk... there wasn't really a problem here. It just seems to have kind of developed into one.

I KNOW what Zafira did was bad. And I don't blame anyone who won't forgive her. BUT it isn't the past which is important, no matter how painful it is. It is the future. We all need to focus on the future rather than dwelling on the past.

Because like... the more you act on the dark past, the darker the future will be. By no means forget, but forgiving her should be an option. So make a brighter present for a lighter future.

Fighting will get no one anywhere, due to people being unwilling to listen and people generally being far too stubborn about all of this. I am aware that it is a serious issue and stuff but continuously fighting... it doesn't seem the way to go about it, for me.)

Mary Contrary said...

goddamn
I have to go
bbs :/

Emerald Melody said...

"The one who does not remember history is bound to live through it again."

This is a quote over one of the buildings at Auschwitz.

If you ignore what has happened in the past, you are just going to repeat it over again.

Edward Fletcher said...

(Well said Dragona and Star)

Star Inkbright said...

I miss Adra.
We all miss Adra.

It's not all Zaf's fault. A lot of it is her fault, but not all of it. Adra has quite a bit of real life shit as well.

And please - if you're angry, put it into something. Like Cinna in The Hunger Games . . . he put his emotions into his work, and he created something beautiful. :)

I'm not Cinna. My emotions go into ranting. But I try to make it productive ranting. Maybe I fail, but I try.

Jophiel said...

I'm sick and I'm in so much pain. I'm struggling to ducking breathe.

But everyone just lay off.

Chione Asahina said...

(I'll not forget Death. I never will. But i will lay it to rest for now because i have very little time left.)

Matex-sama! hello! where the hell have you been? *hugs*

Inky Flame said...

(Maybe I should go for the night
Blogland is my happy place and I can't stand any of this
My email will be open, and my twitter
Night chloe signing out)

John said...

*Cough*HisnameistotallyMax*cough*

Edward Fletcher said...

(Bye Chloe, if you wish to talk then my twitter is open)

Matex Von Darkhour - マテクス said...

Derek wrote a post telling people to stop being mean to each other, and that includes attacking Zaf every god damn day. I have my problems with her too, i have problems with a lot of people on this blog, that doesnt mean i have the slightest interest in bringing them here and causing more pain for people. No one wants an argument. No one. Not even Rose, not even when people tried to "take her side" and "defend her", she doesnt fucking care about that. Honestly why would anyone, Adra included, want to come to a hell hole like this if all we do is insult each other. Its pathetic.

Jophiel said...

Chi. Zaf is my fried.

Adra is my friend.

So is that damn noose hanging in my wardrobe.

Just relax, okay??

Garret Falcone said...

(BLWDI HELL QUIT FIGHTING! (<that is the be all and end all!
I've said my peace.)
(Ok Chloe, feel free to email if you need my help)

Tanya Halcyon (Kas) said...

The noose does not wish you well, Danni. We do.

Dragona Pine said...

Matex Von Darkhour - マテクス said...

I have been "away", for various reasons. And I'm not really all that glad to be back, but here I am.

Well i missed you Matex. Im glad you're back. And i'm sorry.

Matex Von Darkhour - マテクス said...

*hugs Chi* stupid fights aside it is good to see you.
*punches Blake* its definitely not.
*hugs Rose* I am just glad you're alive. I hope you have read my emails, even if you don't wish to speak, please, get help, you could be poisoned still.
Dragona... You remind me of the Club Penguin days.

@Taia: YOU have no idea?

. . .
Oh, dear. :S

WHY DO CLEVER PEOPEL WHO ARE OLDER THAN ME HAVE NO IDEA?
WHY THEY MAKE ME DO THIS?

. . .
anyway.

Chione Asahina said...

(I hate maths...Lowest mark i ever got was 19% in maths.)

Edward Fletcher said...

(*Goat screams and turns into giraffe*)

Star Inkbright said...

@Blake: . . . . . . . . . . . . . yes, but what does 'a' equal?
(If I'm being an idiot and missing something obvious, sorry. :P)

Dragona Pine said...

(*climbs on to the giraffe's back*)

Star Inkbright said...

I . . . *coughs* I find maths exams enjoyable . . .
But um. :P

Chione Asahina said...

(Um...how many x's are there?)

Edward Fletcher said...

(*Giraffe sneezes and takes penguin to the lake*)

@Star: Um

*researching*

*o0*

Chione Asahina said...

*her mouth twitches into a smile* Oh no...i'm fine with fire...

Mary Contrary said...

BUT I ALREADY HAVE A PAGE TO DED.

AND I'M TRYING TO DO MATHS

BY WHICH I MEAN MYMATHS

BUT ALSO HELP WITH STARSMATHS, HOPEFULLY.

UM.


*will hold onto it for now*

Star Inkbright said...

. . . Oh, yeah.

Um . . .

The function f(x) is defined as f(x) = (x + 1) *divided by* (2x - 1)

The domain of f(x) is all x except fot x = a.

What is the value of a?

. . . Once again, I've not been taught, so . . . :S I can do f(3) and f(4) and that (or I think I can O_O), and I comprehend domain and range (mostly), but the whole 'a' thing, I don't think I've encountered.

Dragona Pine said...

(Drink, giraffe. And tomorrow we will conquer the world.)

Star Inkbright said...

It's okay, Taia. :) You don't have to help. :) :)

Edward Fletcher said...

(*Giraffe drinks from lake*)

Necromancer, thank you. My wife and I are slightly against heat and light. But I'm sure we'll get along...

*Examines the stranger*

HANG ON.
