    Re: Those That Paved The Way

    Brilliant idea Hermit, and thank you for the acknowledgement.Big Smile [:D] I do, however, believe that both you and AppleTurnover deserve to be on this most pristigeous of lists.


    It is better to keep quiet and be thought an idiot then to open one's mouth and prove it.

    Re: Those That Paved The Way

    I'm quite busy today, I must upload more youtube vids, download and read the rest of wilddogs zombie story, get a haircut, and now update this topic? Sad [:(] Leave me alone....... Indifferent [:|]

    Ok then I will update this topic, expect to see Kit up there, afterall he made full use of movie scribt style writing, a thing that has been used before on this board but not to full ability as Kit has done.

    Appleturnover, a long running member of the board, but each time he has posted a story the lacecode has attacked him, something thats never happened to me. Stick out tongue [:P] With some guidance from those who don't get it perhaps we can teach him to keep a story going without the code, as without the code he is a excellent writer.

    And previously mentioned members.

    Re: Those That Paved The Way

    I'm gonna say this now but at this moment, I'm currently revising Legends and Untold. Just going in and fixing the spelling errors and I think I screwed up the chapters in Legends.

    So I might post the revised versions unless you think it's easier to link what is here now.

    And thanks for the comment lol.

    Thanks for the look at my story My ploy of calling you a guru worked then mwahaha all bow down to my genius, Devious [:evious:] Your own post here gave me the Idea (the bullet story), and contrary to your own remark I'm sure many people do see you as the fable writing master.

    Re: Those That Paved The Way

    I apologise for the double post, but just bringing you a update.

    I have added:

    -Kit (Due to Popular demand)

    -Hermit (only on request)

    -GiuseppeArcimboldo (Don’t hate me)

    Along with a few small points of basic standards of the board, I want to say rules but I’m not a Admin or Mod. Stick out tongue [:P] And some notes of thanks. Added the best of the best signalled by “A Must Read

    Following I’m looking to add:

    -zhivago (very active member, G o o d [Good] stories)

    -fablefinatic (old member, with G o o d [Good] poems, a G o o d [Good] reader)

    -Goldbug (old member very G o o d [Good] descriptive stories)

    -Stonyspider (old member very G o o d [Good] descriptive stories)

    -Appleturnover (maybe, I’d like to see a finished tale from him first, his past works are G o o d [Good] but all littered with the code)

    -supernovadragon (Posted some G o o d [Good] stories, under valued)

    -existence (A excellent member, reader, and writer, who has gone missing, maybe he was eaten by something in Australia)

    -Galacticdude (G o o d [Good] couple of stories, interesting)

    -Sweetgamer (Undervalued, G o o d [Good] tales)

    - And maybe Jazzhat, and Jontis_Pyro

    I’d like to see your ideas on this matter, what writers do you believe are worthy?

    Haha

    Ok, I'm pushed over the edge here

    Monday, when I'm off work, I'm dedicating that day to completely finish the final installment of the Song of Skorm and any fubar'd complications that arose from the end. People still don't realize that ending that I provided was raw as all hell, so...


    expect to wet your pants

    also, here's the second completed installment

    Re: Those That Paved The Way

    Since the F.F.F (Fable-Fan-Fiction) community has took so well to this thread with a little help from Mort. I have added a few basic standards or 'rules' of any posted fiction. I want to say rules but really I'm in no postion to make rules.

    But standards, are something what I think we all need, to nudge all writers in a G o o d [Good] direction.

    Here are the standards, if you guys are happy with them I'll leave them in, if not then I'll take them out our edit them.

    ------------

    Guidance:

    • I’m not asking you to not write what you want, but! Take into consideration that someone else has most likely done it before, so it bores the reader to see a original idea overused, all I ask is that you make your story original, new ideas.

     

    • Writers are or should be organised people, so keep one story contained in one thread, no making new threads for new chapters, post all chapters of your story in one thread, one story equals one thread. If you should have to revise your story have no fear of posting the new version in a new thread, but still keep in contained, don’t make too many threads.

     

    • The general ideas, of spelling, grammar, punctuation, try to have a readable and understandable story, if possible get a member to edit any errors you can not spot, a PM will suffice thought try not to Spam members PM‘s. Beware of the code which plagues some of the writers, this code has not yet been sourced to its origin so we don’t know much about it, although it only affects the minority.

     

    • Feedback is important, always try to give constructive feedback. Do not Spam members stories, no body will like your story if you happen to post on someone else’s “That they are god-awfully terrible and should never attempt writing ever again” this applies in all words, be nice to fellow writers and readers. If a story is bad don’t be negative towards them, help them.

     

    • Avoid repetitive behaviour in your story, using the same words constantly, gets rather frustrating, enlighten your vocabulary. Avoid nameless tales, always give your story a name, the present doesn’t remember nameless faces of the past. Avoid walls of text, use paragraphs.

    ---------

    If this is to get updated regulary, then I need your opinions and views on the updates, members etc. Paranoid [:aranoid:]

    Re: Those That Paved The Way

    Please note the guidelines Orakaius posted; the format presented is itself a G o o d [Good] example of what is asked for.  Clear grammar, clear message, and not deragatory to those it instructs.  No matter how great your advice may be, you won't get far by insulting people, directly or otherwise.  Other than that, try to enjoy your writing.  If you care about your work, it will be that much better. Editing is always a G o o d [Good] thing; read your post before and after you click [post] to catch as many little things as possible.  Otherwise you might come back the next day and be somewhat "disssapointd" that you didn't catch that little misprint in time to fix it. 

    EDIT: Regularity is also nice.  Keeping a writing schedule assures readers that you haven't disappeared or given up writing, and it also helps to organize the writing process.  I almost always write on Friday and Saturday, so I think about my ideas the day before, giving me time to mull them over before I put them into words.  If you get a sudden burst of inspiration, write it down if you aren't at a computer, so you can reword it until you get it the way you want it to be when you post it.


    Has the world ended already? Oh dear, I must have missed it. . .

    I have been away for three weeks, my modem went tits up. So I just got a new one, and now I'm back online. I shan't tell you my encounter with the correctional facilty that they sent me to. Hmm [^o)]

    But I'm way behind on the fictions posted, have no idea what so ever of new stories, new members, etc. Thank you twelthdoc for the input. as soon as I'm savvy with everything I'll begin updating the topic once again.

    But for now I'll be very busy. So er did you miss me? afraid [:afraid:]

    Maybe you are one in the same, you just don't know it yet. Like from the film Fight Club... whoops I just spoiled a film.

    I too approve of the guide lines, although I'm not continuing my fanfic while I sort my college stuff out.

    I apologise for the wait, I've been playing maplestory. So in truth I haven't been looking at LH at all. I'm still interested in fiction though honest, just bought Meatloaf's hits, its given me more idea's for my dragon story. ^^ [^^]

    So I may write a short soon.

    But the topic may not be updated for awhile. Sorry dudes, just let me get this game out of my mind, then "The Teh Hermit" shall be back. Big Smile [:D]

    Thats fair enough, wonder what the title would be... at this moment I would do an obvious joke like "Dragon out of hell" but I do infact have standards, I have no wish for someone to post cricket sound effects. ^^ [^^]

    Nothing like that, more calm and poetic....hopefully.

    I have recently asked Kit and Twelthdoc, to help with the sticky, their opinions will be a maybe major part of future updates. My computer is still broken, but I'm looking into this. I'll be inactive for a long while, regardless of my pcs maintenance. My inactivity will not affect the topic, one day you'll see version three of this topic, but I wont be anywhere to be seen.
