Fiction writing

As a writer I believe I still have a lot more to learn. In writing I think writing fiction is one of my strengths, for example I do enjoy writing short stories on my free time just for fun. I often share them with one of my friends and my cousin. I am still pretty shy about them, but they seem to really like them. Although, they are not the best stories I can spend a lot of time writing them without getting bored. I also enjoy writing argumentative essays, finding evidence that supports my claim is interesting to me as well as finding a counter claim, and then finding the evidence I need to prove the opposing side wrong or just to keep supporting my claim. I believe my weakness in writing is writing essays or topics with no background knowledge…

I am a writer. I used to write fanfiction. I’ve been writing fanfiction about my favorite interests ever since I was in the seventh grade; I usually write angst or stories with happy endings. Writing fan fiction was a hobby of mine until I entered high school because I loved writing whatever was in my imagination and I get to express my thoughts and feelings. Nowadays, I write about analysis or evaluation of a story written decades ago. When it comes to essays or anything with a due date, I am…

"The mall would be a perfect place to hideout!" One of the voices argued. "No! You're so wrong! Those rotters are going to be crawling there!" another voice interjected. Who could be fighting at a time like this? I wondered. I cracked open the door slightly. Looking into the darkened room, I saw my two friends, Ann and Kim arguing. The art room they were in looked slightly bloody, yet still cleaner than most rooms I've seen. I turned my attention back to Kim and Ann. Their conversation began to…

You laid in your bed, your hair a tangled mess and your face resembling that of a zombies. You groaned as you shuffled in the bed, roughly kicking the covers away because the heat was irritating you. You sighed. The memories of the night was still fresh in your mind, replaying at every chance it got; now was no exception. "Kian?" You stumbled into the apartment, your vision a blurry mess. "Kian." You dragged out his name in an attempt to get him to respond. You looked at the sofa and sighed.…

orphanage, in the ‘baby room’ at exactly the same time,” Erik Valeur, the author of Det Syvende Barn, told Nordic Style Magazine in an interview. This popular Scandinavian novel was translated to English as The Seventh Child, which can best be described as a fusion of the author’s old non-fictional inditing and his amateur fictional writing. This mystery thriller revolves around an obscure, but once thriving, reporter who investigates a mysterious package he received, which contained a picture…

I distinctly recall investing my entire being into reading and writing around the age of four. My mother and father stepped foot onto this country’s soil with merely three small duffle bags stuffed with all of their personal items. With a lack of money and a severely strict budget, they had to do whatever they could to provide my sister, my two brothers and I with whatever was necessary to live. My father worked numerous jobs throughout the day and night as a taxi driver, a Time Warner cable…
