'ello! I'm Evil_Excel but you can just call me Excel for short. I'm 17 years old and am currently unemployed but looking like a mad woman...-.- I am also a Senior in High school.
I write poetry and short stories. I also write songs but their pretty rubbish. I just got into short stories but I especially like coming up with longer stories, plots, twists, characters, etc..The problem is I never get around to finishing them because i'm so lazy. I've dabbled a bit in script writing but again most of it is rubbish and so I don't even think too much about it.
1/2 my writing just sort of comes out of me. I wouldn't say i'm creative just inventive. I like to twist, prode, and tear apart concepts then reconstruct them in a way that makes sense to me. The other 1/2 comes from being inspired by movies i've seen, books I've read, or arguments i've heard. I try not to copy plots or anything. I mostly look at the style, tone, setting, and character motivations. Sometimes I do take a bit of their main ideas such as morals or lessons or subjects but like I said I like to twist them in a way that's inhuman. 3nodding I really like imagery but I'm rubbish at trying to be symbolic or something so I end having a good laugh when someone reads some of my stuff that didn't have real meaning in it and thinking it means somthing. But then again I get really let down when I try symbolism and it doesn't work or people just take it at face value, refusing to open their minds to what it could mean. But I guess it's hard to find readers now a days who are not looking for something hidden but just see it. Most people are just looking too hard or not hard enough. I admit to being like this sometimes.
The person I admire would have to be John Lennon. Not exactly because of what he writes more because he has the balls to be free and loose with his writing. And I try not to be so uptight but trying to be loose is terribly hard. lol

I am Shazzer. From what I've already read, I'm very, very old, and holy crap I have a nametwin.
My name is Kristine. I am the only bohemian hippie CompSci major you will ever meet. I am also probably the only glockenspiel player you will ever meet (I actually play a myriad of instruments, six and counting, but the glock is what gets most people's attention). I am a music nerd, language nerd, anime nerd, writing nerd, computer nerd, and video game nerd all rolled into one. I am ubernerd.
I have a tedious day job, but I also get paid for performances of the musical variety.
I write all sorts of things, though right now... I feel like a good, irreverent first-person satire short story would suit me nicely.
Off to scribble. ~<3

Look around, melt the snow...
Wow. I feel belittled o_o Ahm, I'm Keriea, but you can call me Kat, Katrina, K, Kate, CauliFlower, Pentagon, Ina, In, Ker, Keri, Riea, Katriciano, or whatever you can think of!
I am 13 years old, I like writing poetry and quotes. I enjoy playing on my computer and sketching, and I'm a very tardy student. I do well in school, except Geography dares to befuddle me *shakes fist in the air*. Ah--I get hyper sometimes, but sometimes I can be very mature. My voice changes to an adult voice when I answer the phone/talk to a stranger =O
..of hardships dealt, Let them go

Did you read the rules? Um.. whatever rules I could find.
Will you follow the rules? Sure, why not?
What do you like to write (poetry, short stories, etc)? Well, this is a very interesting story. I took Creative Writing last year, and sort of towards the end of the year, I started writing my autobiography, more or less, but then the class ended and there was nobody to critique my writing anymore, so I went out looking for a casual forum of amateurs to fill in, because I can never take that creative writing class again as long as I live, sorry, that's the rules.
Writing sample (Any media)
Everyone here seems so friendlyand nice! heart Of course, writers are liars for a living.
