I’m interested.

At one time I had a few ideas and way back before I made good grades in a script writing class.

I have a copy of JMS book on screen writing around somewhere. Very good book. The guy who was behind Babylon 5. I can never spell his name.

“With the wind blowing through his hair, that blazing orange hair, liberal leftists dissolved into rage-filled rants at the very sight of him. Storm clouds gathered over their wretched hovels as they trembled at the impending doom they faced. Softly, ever so much just a whisper floated through the air in their direction...’Bring it’, the voice said.”

Laz, I have written most of a semi-fictional travel narrative; however, I had writers block during the scamdemic.

May I join in? Maybe the juices will start flowing again...

Please add me to the list. Motivation is lacking to start/middle/ finish parts of things i’ve got going on. Lurking in the third row behind people who are accomplishing something will be worthwhile.

For decades... I’ve had a couple of ideas for a fiction book that relates to SciFi and time travel, but I have no idea how to get started and I have never written anything of substance. Even tho I have the time now, finally, I seem to be afraid to try... since I know absolutely nothing about writing.

Maybe I could learn a thing or two from this guild.. or maybe it would give me some confidence to finally begin (hope springs).

Sign me up.

In the eighties, I used to write “I am alive DB Cooper” in the stalls at truck stops in TX, OK, LA, AR & MS when I drove 18’s.

Please add me, Laz. I’ve written vast quantities of Fantasy and SF but need a great editor to move some of my works from semi-publishable up to publishable level (i.e. cut out a couple hundred pages of the nonsense I once thought was brilliant). :)
