I don't know if I am posting this in the right area of the message board or if I am even allowed to post topics like this but I am going to be cheeky and give it a go!

I understand that there are quite a few writers on the board and I would very much like to get my own book/short story going. Not necessarily for material gain (though that and recognition would be nice lol) but for personal satisfaction.

When getting in contact with old friends and teachers from school they always ask me if I 'still write' as I used to dab my hand in short stories but I find it incredibly hard to get going nowadays.

I love writing and people's responses to what I write, I remember a teacher was moved to tears because of one of my short stories(I am assuming they were 'good' tears and not tears of pain!) and I would like to evoke that reaction in at least one more person before it is too late!

Any tips or help would be much appreciated! I am guessing you lot are the best people to ask.


(I posted this is Culture, Race and Economy but another posted said that it was better advised to post here).
