Story of our lives

hello lyn! when i write discussions,it's easier for me to have it based on my life experience. but there are times,i am like you.i do put some additional spices to have a little enjoyment.so that makes,a little fun and a lot of true events. but,we really can't tell which ones true,unless you really know the person physically,right? nevertheless,it is a lot easier to share experiences from real life situations than making up stories. do you agree? i guess it just depends on who are you referring to. there are topics or stories which are based from other people's lives but the author intended to make it his own life or vice versa.so,you still can be confused at times.^_^

Hi Lyn, Thanks, for talking shop! :O) My way of thinking may sound absurd, so if you find you can't relate, I'll totally understand! Hahaha! :P Thing is, I've studied "story" for so long, and I'm pretty good at it. It's just that a lot of the time, it's just not me. So, I write from another angle. &, just as those who've studied Grimm fairy tales warn that they're not really all "stories," I often want to give the same warning. At the end of the day, what I like best could be called inter-disciplinary conceptual language art. But I write stories, too. Here's the weirdness: the more autobiographic my stories are, the less anyone else would be likely to see it! :P What I mean is that when I write a story with a male main viewpoint character--it may look like my life on the surface. But, the depth is usually alien to me. When the main viewpoint character's a girl, however, I feel free to share what I REALLY feel! I just feel free to let it all out, there! And, when the story universe is really bizarre, my feelings and drives and curiosities all burst into full view! If you do a search for giovani princess dawn candy You'll find stories in something like the astral plane starring Princess Dawn & Candy. They're NOTHING like me, on the surface. But they truly are my soul. And, my soul isn't even in ONE person! It's divided between the two of them! :P Hahaha! Same with a family musical I wrote: THE BLACKBERRY KIDS GO TREASURE HUNTING. The heroic leads are Tatiana & her sidekick, Brian. They're nothing like me, at all, externally. But, between them, you've got my soul on display. I seldom write about anyone who looks like me or lived where I lived. They usually DO something I've done, but it takes up wayyyyy more of their lives than it ever took up of mine. Hmmm. I'm glad you helped me notice that, Lyn. Hope that was helpful. :O) Sunshine & Blessings, Giovani

When I write a story, I always write based on my experience and a little bit of imagination to make it more interesting. But I'm actually not good in writing When I'm writing for a discussion though, I always do based on my experience and my life story because it is so much easier to converse my idea and write it down, otherwise it is so difficult and slow me down when I have to write based on imagination. Have a nice day

for me depends^^ i always put a bit of me in the story yes^^ but about my life i wrote two of them^^ one i wrote about a guy i liked long ago. and other one was a short story about me and him too like we were soulmates^^ i was 17 that time^^ anyway i write poems also and i wrote about love in general when im inspired^^ and i wrote a last story that i didnt finish yet that i just started and the girl is like me^^ has the same personality and how i would like to meet a guy also ahah^^ so yes i put myself in the story but girl has a different name in this last one ahah^^

Yes, sometimes I did that. I am not good at making it up. My life is full of happy and sad stories. And that makes me think it will be good if I tell others. Then, I also realize that by writing my life experience, I can find something I don't know before. It really makes me encourage to write more and more.

When I write a story I totally make it up. I may make the characters have some of my personal attributes such as parts of my personality but thats the closest to my life as I like to get.Not to mention reality tends to bore me I prefer fantasy or if it is non fiction it has to be interesting to get me to read it.

When I am writing a story, I will write a theme I imagine. But when I write a discussion here, I based it on my experiences.

i use what happens to me and add lots and lots of fiction to it to make it more fun to read and less sad. i also take the pain full things out of them.

i also write story on once experiances of life as i c all people write about there experiances or r somehow influenced by an experiance in their life that si how they start the writing thing going on deep down in ther consious some force is guiding them to the thought that has attrackted them to being what they r today and how or what they write
