The short fat goblin stared up at the star invested sky , he wandered what it would be like to be one of the cool goblins , like Mugyun , he's cool ,so's travy ...his body alone makes the girl goblins blush . But Ugrub was'nt cool he was short for his age , dangerlously obese and had social issues . He couldent talk to some one for more than two minutes before bringing the subject of rocks up . Ugrub collected rocks , in his eyes thay were fantasticly smooth objects or huge rough bolders , why did no one else collect them , they were perfect .

Ugrubs parents abandoned him when he was three , he dosent know why but the his freinds say its cause hes an ugly turd that bores anyone within a five meter radious to death . He had forgiven his so called freinds even as the words left there lips , he would put up with any thing to have some one to hang around

shall i continue on this story to make it a ten page novel , i know its kinda cheesy but itll improve

YOur story needed severe editing so I went ahead and did it; I hope you don't mind.
Stop putting spaces before full stops and commas.

Cheesy's not always bad. It can be fun! :wink:

Seriously, though. This caught my attention right away. I wish I could tell you why. I think it's because the character isn't perfect. Short, fat--the second and third word of the first sentence! Even his name has 'grub' in it. :D

Some editing to do, but that's not important right now. I'll tell you it's definately worth continuing if you have a story in mind. Make it one page, ten pages, or 100! Whatever you want.

Have fun!

as a side note, I also liked collecting rocks when I was younger. Some acquaintances of my parents gave me a set of non-polished rockes, labeled and everything...and my mom threw them away. *sigh* So in a way I sort of relate to Ugrub, too. But I'm not short or fat. :D

Hmmm... I was moved by it... but it seems awkward as a fantasy-ish thing. Goblins never seem to have much emotion in my head. But if it was just another teen-angst type thing it wouldn't be so unique.

But never stop writing! You've got an idea, go with it.
