Promote yourself (not your series)

[tyler9721111]

I'm 14 and love to create stories in my mind, but when it comes to paper... I'm not a good writer yet. My two writing dreams would be,
1. For one of my stories to become a cartoon or comic.
2.For someone to tell me my story helped them through a tough time.

To be honest, it is depressing how bad I am at writing, but I try to walk with my head high knowing that years from now my skills will have improved a lot.

I had 4 cats. Sadly one ran away a month ago.

I swap houses between my mom's and future step dad's a ton. That wouldn't be a big deal if my PC hadn't broke a week ago. Now when I go to my step dads house I can't type. Luckily my mom has a laptop I can use when at her house.

My first story was called School e.x.e. and it was written two years ago. (It was so horrid that I hid it)

My current is Two Faced (Cough chough, Please check it out, cough cough)

I love to write.
I like Anime and am always watching one series.
I play Apex Legends on Xbox and Dragon Ball Legends on mobile.
And School takes up the rest of my day.

Not really the most exciting life, but you asked for it.

Last thing, I got the name Arul from one of my favorite series I wrote in case you were wondering why my alias was so bizzare.

Your artwork is pretty amazing tho

Graduate for Neuroscience sounds pretty cool. Research or more along the surgery route?

[Myst]

I’d love to go down the research route. I don’t think I’d be suited for performing surgery, since I don’t trust myself with a scalpel on a living person.

Keep it up! I was definitely no writer at 14 (and I still have my flaws), but you have so much more to learn and so much more growing to do in the area of writing. In fact, my grades were pretty dreadful in high school overall (as average as they come lol). But once I got to college with my focus on a BA in English, I enjoyed myself and got my first 4.0 and never had anything below a B-
I've learned a lot about writing since high school and I'm positive you will too. And hopefully with that growth you'll become more proud of how you're writing!

Congratz on the 4.0. Thats a huge accomplishment.

Thank you!!!!

Love this turn on promoting:

Hi, I'm 18 years old, going on 19, I live in the US, and I am a Psychology student. I'm currently an editor for a small group organization where students at my college can publish their poems, short stories, and other pieces of writing and have them published across the school campus.

I write mainly drama/fantasy stories about young people aspiring to find themselves and reach their full potential. I do hope to become a published author at some point and whatever happens on the way will also satisfy my dream (but becoming an NYT bestseller wouldn't be bad either :P). For now, I'm focusing on school and earning my degree but any writing accomplishments I make on the way will heighten my life!

Hiya nerds, I just had a birthday and turned 24! I live in Salt Lake City, USA, but I also have dual citizenship with Canada, where my mum is from. Married for 2 1/2 years now, no kids (but I admit I'm getting a little baby hungry...) I've always wanted to write books, and have done so all my life. Being an author is my ultimate dream, words and storytelling my true passion, and I try to put that into my work.

I also like taking pictures of food (lol), make dating sims in my spare time, and hope to one day open a cat cafe so I can realize my other dream; to have a bunch of cats. I dropped out of college and honestly, it was the best decision I ever made! It's given me the ability and time to truly focus on making my writing into a career. Fingers crossed!

I'm working on three novels, one dating sim, and a thousand fanfictions ha ha

This was fun!

Seems interesting so let's see...

I am a regular guy about to make its 50th run around the Sun, now in march.
Worked as teacher for most of my life but now I am retired. Always wanted to tell stories and I am a gamer.
Have a lot of things that I created but never shared so far. So being here in Tapas is my way to show what those things are. Instead of let them dusting in my head I decided to give a go. I write anything that comes to my mind. Don't have a gender but I am fan of big epic adventures and supernatural stuff. So most of my works end up being, Horror, Fantasy, Sci Fy and Superheroes. When those does not mix lol.
Usualy my stories have some drama and romance involved though it is not the main purpose of the plot it is present.
Grotheske for example has a peculiar love triangle between two characters. Yes you read right triangle.
I live in Brazil and being an idealist it is not easy to live in here nowadays. My country is not what it used to be and our people is infected with some disease that make us chose the worse politians possible. And is the the same people that suffer because of those. Well let's forget about that.
Part of me writing is to escape this mud and offer a better place other than reality for a while.
Most of my stories are in fact planning to future videogames that I intend to publish.
So this is poor old me.
To know how my mind works the best way is to check what I write.

Sturdy 1990 machine with all its original pieces.
Some wear from a multitude of fender benders. But the scratches are part of its charm.
Added new features in 2016.
Some repairs needed, working on it. Should be done by 2022.
Fuel-efficient, does not consume much.
High mileage, has seen a bit of the world.

I just turned 33 years old, married, and live in the US. I don't have any kids. I'll just say I've had some health issues in that respect.

I've been a weeaboo since about 14 years old and have never given it up. Luckily, my husband is also just as much of a weeaboo.

I have a BFA in Graphic Design and have been working as a graphic artist about 5 or so years now. I used to work at an online marketplace that specializes in t-shirts that people have likely heard of. After they let me go because of their financial incompetence, I now work at a much better place that specializes in sports team apparel.

I also have an interest in science and support all types of science. Recently, I've really been enjoying watching debates on Youtube and usually listen to them while drawing.

I'm also certified in the N3 level (intermediate) of the JLPT. I've been learning Japanese since I was about 14, but not fluent because I've focused more on drawing than learning. ._.

Awww, than you~!

Thank you for this nice topic! Your dream sounds really epic btw. And a lot of fun!

I'm Inky... I'm 26, and a survivor of almost 10 years of retail. internal screaming I got a basic associates but money and messed up life stuff kept me from going any farther. Maybe someday I'll get to go back. I'd get a teaching degree in English and teach highschool creative writing!

I love drawing and writing and gaming. At some point I'd like to do a comic here too, but I only do traditional. It takes a long time and can be expensive x0x

I'm totally retro and gave some really out there references in my writing. Meta jokes ftw. I wrote and indie published a complete rpg system. It took 3 years. Next challenge is to write a novel! I'm hoping to finish this in about a year.

Uuuh, I guess that's me! Hopefully I'm not too boring xD

[InkSpecter]

I see that emote combo in my nightmares xD also very cool! Glad to meet an editor <3

[LCT_m_a_d]

Now that's how you sell yourself!

[gh0stcr33p]

aw thanks, that really made my day to hear-or... see.

[charliesackett]

Hi!
First off, make the indian super heroes because that would be super cool!

I'm Charlie. I'm 27 and I live in Canada. I'm genderqueer and I'm the singer in a metal band. I do html email coding and graphic design as my day job. I like writing and doing comics. Sometimes I practice witchcraft. I'm mostly just trying to eat right and exercise and fix my mental health lately because I've been a trainwreck for a long time.

[charliesackett]

I love this and I wish I'd thought to be that imaginative when I posted xP

[baasinsimple]
