I AM currently writing a novel but you are just going to have to wait 'til its published to find out what it is about! I will tell you that it involves terrorist attacks, vietnam and gulf war vets. Hopefully I'll see you at the book signing (lol)! Sorry that was presumptous of me.

Great,benhilo!a novel involves terrorist attacks,Vietnam and gulf war......I can't imagine it!It must be a very special book.
It sounds you are writing a novel about a jarhead in the United States(lol)
Are there any love stories in the novel?such as one soilder fell in love with a Vietnamese girl.(lol)
I am waiting for your book,since you are in the United States,probably you can not see me at the book signing unless i have the chance to study in USA.
But maybe i can buy it from the Amazon,Can i buy the book with your signiture in China?
best inspiration and best luck!

It sounds pretty good. I've always wanted to be a writer and have written a lot. I started my new novel a few weeks ago and I've already finished the first five chapters. I haven't written anything since but today I am going to buckle myself down and work as much as I can. Good luck with your story.

Hello dear dongsting. I used to have such a dream, but later I didn't follow my dream, as I don't think that I have a good writing skill for it. I find it hard for me to write something long and interesting for my readers to read, so my dream has never been realized till now, which is a great pity to me.
I hope that you will enjoy a lot about writing your initial novel and I wish you successful in your loved hobby with great good luck. Hope someday that I will be able to read your novel. Happy writing, dear friend.

Thank you so much for your nice comment. In fact, I have many dreams, but my latest dream is to take part in English tests to get as many certificates to be held by our country as I can within the year of 2008. I will try my best to make them come true one by one with my great effort. Thank you and have a good time.

Your novel idea seems to have everything: poverty, excitement, love, money and murder. I can't wait to read it!
I love reading fiction but I have never wanted to write a novel. I do write a lot but mainly articles and reviews. I have had some poetry published in anthologies and magazines. My articles and reviews appear on the internet.
If you have a good plan and you have started writing your novel, you are well on your way towards achieving your dream.

thank you paid2write,i love the colour of your avatar(lol)
I think you are successful because you have had some poetrys published!
:) i am not good at poetry,i don't know how to express emotion through poetry.
My stories all came from my dreams,in my dreams,i "saw" soooooo many terrible and special things,i can't forget them,so i have to write them out.
I appreciate you for your encouragement,i will try my best!
best wishes to you,i hope you will be more and more successful!Let's go ahead!

I would love to write a book about my life and the struggles I have dealt with because I really think that they may help some people that have the same issues and think that they can never really overcome them.

I haven't thought much about writing a novel, but in the recent past I have researched somewhat and considered writing sort of a memoir, or even autpbiography. Sometimes things just pop into my head that I want to write but I find it hard to stay focused and stay on one topic, I like to bounce around when I write, because one idea or though starts leading me to another and I lose track of the original idea.

hello risris24:
me too!when i begin to write my novel,i quickly lose the track of my original idea.
You said you wanna write sort of a memoir,that's cool!i think you must be a person who really konws life and experienced a lot.
I am not a experienced man,i do not even get married,so i think i can't write a memoir.what i can do is only imagining,LOL.probably i am a dreamer.
