Welcome welcome. Bienvenue. Irasshai.

Yes. I be writing books. I've actually completed four already, and am working on my fifth. Three are obvious fantasies, but one is open to interpretation as to whether or not there is a fantasy element to it. The fifth is based on a fairy tale story I wrote for woman's lit. This time the princess rescues a farm boy, rather than a prince rescuing a princess. The story was called Charlotte and the Ogre, but I think the novel will just be called Charlotte. I don't really write short stories. I honestly don't know how, which is why I write novels instead of short fiction, even though it's a thousand times easier to publish short fiction than novels, and you're more likely to get a book published if you have a list of short fiction credits. Even non-fiction and poetry help.
What books be you writing?
Please, sit down before you fall down.

Welcome to YWS. I am writing a book right now which if I finish, I plan to try to publish. It's fantasy/adventure. The last time I finished something was when I was about six years old. It was a 40 page story about a witch. That's all I remember about it The peice I'm working on right now has a good, finishable feel to it, though

Right now I'm working on a book that I really like the idea for, but sadly I have not been good with the implementation of it. At the moment, I'm just making up character bios, though I'm also somewhat working on a real outline for the book.
Words are pale shadows of forgotten names. As names have power, words have power. Words can light fires in the minds of men. Words can wring tears from the hardest hearts. — Patrick Rothfuss, The Name of the Wind
