Welcome to Gaia! ::

Like with Cindy and Jon give me an honest opinion.

...........................................................................................................

The air is stuffy and thick in the gymnasium of the Koto Brilliance Academy. Lights of humungous proportions are being placed at 45 degree angles on the various sides of three benches tiered. The graduating class of 1990 are waiting outside of the gym in single file. Today is graduation picture day. Two individuals of that class are Ryu Adachi-Ku and Kenneth Wave.

Ryu, a man of 18 years of age, born on July 21st, has thick black hair, oriental style eyes in the shade of almond brown, a height of average size, with a semi-muscular build about the chest area.

His favorite colors are red and white. His not so important goals in life are to become an actor, to become a well-known martial artist, and to eventually see the universe. But, what Ryu truly desires out of life is to be as different as anyone can be. He even wanted to become more different that Kenneth Wave, his best friend.

Kenneth Wave is 17 years old, born on February 14th, has golden blond hair, chestnut colored eyes, has a height of a taller than average, but he was slender and not built. He is American in descent or so he is told.

Ken, as Kenneth prefers to be called, has a hobby of being a hopeless romantic. Everywhere he goes, he tends to be thinking dirty thoughts. He never has an explanation for it, it just happens. He enjoys the martial arts like Ryu, but he'd rather go against fighting.

One goal Ken has in life is to be good in healing people. Several teachers in the school figure that Ken would make a fine doctor someday and perhaps even a miracle worker.

When Mr. Kyukuju called everybody into the gym, Ryu began to feel extremely warm. Maybe it is because Ken is so close in distance to Ryu, but Ryu could not tell if it was that or not.

Kyo, who is a classmate of Ryu and Ken, and in fact is one of Ryu's half-brothers, whispers to Ken, "What's with Ryu? He's getting all sweaty in here."

Ken looks to Kyo and replies, "Yeah, I know, but, aren't we all hot in here. I wish they had a window for the gym."

The students got into their positions onto the benches just as the camera flashes and a bulb bursts! Ryu then screams loudly as if in extreme pain, then is forced into an epileptic seizure! Ken had to shield his eyes when the flash went off, but as he now witnesses his best friend in uncontrollable convulsions, his only objective is to save Ryu before it is too late.

Awesome!

In my next topic, which what I am going to do with the writing section to get some activity going in here is to Individually write parts of these two books.

They will be shortened versions of the actual stories, but I plan on writing both here.

I have a total of an 8 book series I want to write, and that will provide a lot of activity in here and maybe get me noticed here with other than just you Sherry.

I love your comments, believe me. I think you and I are the only ones active in this guild right now.

Ha ha ha, well, I do pretty good on my own. But, the advice is always good for my books. The Cindy and Jon story now has what I need it to be.

Summer school? Did you fail?

Oh...I see. Well, lets hope you do well then.

Well, that's good.

Yours is great, little devil.

If you want a cool story like mine, one thing to keep in mind is your audience. Who is it that you want to read your story?

Do you want an audience that is into horror? If so, then what you want to focus on is what makes horror films so wonderful? In my opinion, horror films usually contain a lot of blood and a lot of death like murders and what not.

Now a good place for a topic on your story would be check your newspapers. There's horror in there no problem. If you can compete with the local newspaper today, then you have a great book. I won't subscribe to a newspaper because it is too much like a horror novel.

If you want to focus on a controversial subject, think about what people have constant issues about. A great topic is about gays and lesbians and their rights. And, with Yaoi being popular lately, you could get a lot of cash if you finished your novel in time.

A great novel is as descriptive as you can make it, but also with proper spelling too. When I was in grade 3, I got an award for my reading. But I could also spell better than most kids too.

I am 28 now and I can spell better than most spell checkers.

Another good area, which doesn't have a lot of popularity, but is in dire need of popularity is a good nature fiction story. You know how Lord of the rings was popular? Well, there is an area in that story that I personally loved. The elven lands.

And, perhaps mix a bit of the religious controversial subject on the idea of a "paradise".

These are just some ideas.

Men in Manhatten was already done as a movie, and thus it would be copyright.
