Very well then.

I'm goofing off to avoid work. ;) Unfortunately, the work needs to be done. More unfortunately, I can't get motivated to do it. I'm not being paid, so money isn't a motivation. Any ideas on how to get motivated to finish a short story? It has to tie into a novel later on...And no, there is no deadline. I'm not in school. ;)

Think up a brilliant ending, one with a really good twist.

You'll be falling over yourself to write the rest of it so you can pen the ending. ;)

[3rd gen noob]

add some porn

:rolleyes:

[MagicNakor]

I already know how it ends. ;) In fact, I've likely only got a few pages left to do. I just can't focus.

No. No porn. :rolleyes:

:ninja:

[Adster]

yes the endings are always the hard parts to write in a novel

What, none at all? <_<

[MagicNakor]

No. None at all. ;) I&#39;m not in the habit of writing bodice-rippers.

Think of the joy which you will place in the hearts and minds of the readers.

That should motivate you to finish it.

:lol: Maybe. Except that only six, maybe seven people are going to read it in the near future.

Then you will be able to see the joy in all of your readers faces. What a gift.

One day i whent to the shop to buy some eggs and on the way i ran into a pirate and his name was pete.

I asked him if he can move out of the way and he siad "arghh i shal not move for you you vermin" so i put on my marix coat and done that fly kick thing in the air and aimed for his head but kicked the cocky of his shoulder by an accident. He started to cry and yelled out "arghh my polly is dead arghh you shall die"

He transformed into an autobot and then i turned into guyver and i done that megga smasher thing but i missed and hit the moon. The moon fell onto the earth and the earth blew up.

Start writing on something else, the novel for example(it might help you with the continuity too), go back to the short story later.

Magic have you written anything you&#39;d be willing to share with us, I would quite like to read something of yours.

[Lamsey]

Tell someone you know that you&#39;d like them to read it once you&#39;re done, and give them a few tantalising details.


They&#39;ll then bug you so much you&#39;ll be desparate to get it finished to shut them up ;)

[J'Pol]

You could always make it your unfinished work.

That would be enigmatic :ph34r:

[Mr. Mulder]

Pay some one else to do it and download porn instead :D

Good luck wif that ilw.... based on the riddles he&#39;s posted in the past, I doubt I&#39;d understand much of anything he penned. http://www.piczonline.com/client/titey/duh.gif

:lol: I didn&#39;t write those riddles, I just copied them out. The authours of those are long dead.

It seems to be my unfinished work. Unfortunate, because so much of my work becomes that. ;)

I don&#39;t actually write on the computer; I&#39;m not really able to do it. I need the ink and paper. So, really, all I can do is share a character name/concept from a previous work. ;)

Cecil Johnathan Withencroft III, Esq. He&#39;s an extraordinarily bad poet, but he thinks he&#39;s alright.

Edit: No, his poetry isn&#39;t fit to be printed, so that won&#39;t be shared. It really is extraordinarily awful.
