Welcome, Snapshot! Come on in and tell us a bit about yourself; what you like to read, your preferred genre, any written work you'd like to post. We are not a huge group by any means, so everybody knows each other (virtually, at least).
Make yourself comfortable and let me know if you have any questions.

Ah hah!
I love to read contemporary-sifi-adventure, thrillers always tickle my fancy, slather a little bit of mystery on top with philosophy sprinkled ever so gently over the conglomeration and suddenly you have my Kindle (which I carry everywhere I go).
My all-time favorite book (which changes every year) is currently Zero Sight - B. Justin Shier. The one before that was The Shepherd - Ethan Cross. Before that seems to fade, but Legacy - Hugo Jackson, Wool series - Hugh Howey, Ready Player One - Ernest Cline, and almost every book of the Guardians of Ga'Hoole series - Kathryn Lasky seems to have had a huge impact on my reading genre of choice, being that they're all fantastic books.
I do write, and I write often. Though with few people willing to read what I have to say, I began looking around for a website for people like myself. I read more than a few posts on this forum and I feel like I'm in the right place... Or, maybe even the... WRITE, place (I'm a guy who likes his puns, sorry).
I've finished 1 story of mine about a year ago, right around my 21st birthday and called it Creativity. At the time, it was my only way to vent as some call it, so it may appear somewhat... I dunno, dramatic, and consists of two people my age destroying random things and calling it art (those damned whipper-snappers). It ended right at the 16,599th word leaving me with 36 pages total. Can I post the whole thing at once? What would you guys recommend?
I'm currently working on another story with the same amount of drama that expands on the idea of blackmailing two other people with immortality. I considered it original and am interested as to what other people would think of it. At the moment, it rests at 25,364 persistent words and 53 relentless pages until I finish the book I'm currently reading by Ted R. Blasingame. And there's a reason I called it Sacrifices. He haa!
I'm looking forward to reading the feedback from you guys! Thanks ahead of time for reading my story! ;D

Welcome snapshot! Please feel free to post Creativity of here for us to read. Some may call it venting, but I like to call it inspiration. Personal experiences really help fuel ideas and I can admit personal thoughts and experiences have fueled my book Heart Beat.
