New 14 Year Old Writer

Hey guys, my name is Ryan, and as you can see from the subject of this post, I am a 14 year old writer trying to make something of myself. I am living in Ontario, Canada and I have been writing since I was 10 years old, so I'm still fairly new to this, so PLEASE don't go calling me a rookie, I am already aware of it. Thanks
I have always loved writing. Whether it is stories, music, or even essays (yes I was always the weird kid who smiled while doing a 2 page write up), I always go above and beyond what is asked of me. For example, my grade 8 teacher wanted my class to each write a one page story, and I handed in a twelve page action packed adventure that was "easily ready to become a movie" according to my teacher. I might submit that one soon.
My style of writing is mostly a kind of sci-fi or action genre, usually with events that would probably never happen in real life. For example, the twelve page story I handed in to my teacher was about a small town in the United States that had an evil creature, known as The Darkness, living in the basement of a tennis school. I mean, come on! I'll explain how wrong this is. 1) Evil creatures are unheard of and so far proven non-existant on our planet. 2) Who would be stupid enough to stick around and name it? 3) Why live in a tennis school? And 4) Are there even tennis schools in small farming towns?
So yeah, it was weird. But even more, it fed on the souls of people it possesed and controlled to make it bigger and stronger! Really? I actually have no idea what was running trough my mind when I wrote this, but it was pretty good anyway.
Straying away from that before i get TOO carried away... I am actually writing a book right now called Create and Destroy (temporary name, ready for change) and I don't want to get into too much detail, but it's about a 14 year old boy named Max Fisher who develops these sweet powers and is lunged into a war that only 14 year old kids can have an affect on, because for some reason, the adults can't kill the bad guys if they tried their hardest. Again, what was I thinking? But I ran with it. You can check out my website if you want, rtokarz.webs.com and theres a more detailed description there. If you do, sign the guest book and let me know you are from here, I'd appreciate it. I know it's just a webs.com site, but I didn't want to spend time and money writing code for my own site in case I didn't end up going anywhere with this, but if I get enough reckognition, I'll make it mine.
So yeah, this is me, and I thank you for reading this if you even got this far. Honestly, I thank you for opening my post, and I am sorry for the length, but I LOVE to write and I tend to get carried away.

Peace,

Ryan

Hello Ryan and welcome to YWS!
You sound just like my little brother and your post made me smile. And yes, I did read the entire thing
For the record, there is no such thing as weird kids that like to write, there are the smart ones and then there are the ignorant children who choose not to take advantage of how much fun writing can be!
You are obviously not one of those, I can tell you have a real passion for it!
I hope to see you around.

LOL! That is a pretty awesome story, it sounds like! And writing about the plausible is too boring.

I edited your link so that it actually linked to your site! Your site looks pretty cool! I love the book format.

Hey Ryan!

Welcome to YWS! I'm sure you'll enjoy all the madness that goes on here.
I enjoy sci-fi a lot too! I like reading action-y stories but somehow, I haven't been able to write one.

If you feel confuzzled or you'd like to chat about anything, feel free to PM me.

See you around soon!

Yay! Another wierdo!:) Now we can start our master plan! Your short story sounds interesting. It's ok if stuff doesn't make sense. Readers are supposed to be willing to suspend disbelief after all. Although! You sound like you'd be good at writing parodies. See you around!

We're all rookies here, so you're in good company.

And, welcome to YWS! I'm Rachael. A fellow lover of sci-fi. I think my first finished story, after my 3rd grade rehashing of Jack and the Beanstalk meets Rumpelstiltskin, was about chocolate bars that came to live and took over the world. What was I thinking? I dunno, but I am a chocoholic, and I don't want help with it, either.

Anyway, welcome welcome welcome! What's your favorite book? Favorite color? Favorite word?

Rach

Thanks everyone for welcoming me and for your feedback! Also, thanks to anybody who checked out my site, I appreciate that! Now, some personal replies!

@daydreamer, I hope it's a good thing if i remind you of your brother! And thanks, but I like being weird!

@Sploink, I think you're my favorite person on here so far! Totally in agreement about writing about the plausible. :p And thanks for editing the link in there and especially for visiting my site! What do you think of me putting a reference to this site for more people to check it out?

@Lava, ... I LOVE MADNESS! And if you can't seem to write and action or sci-fi story, it just means you're really good at writing something else right? Don't worry, you'll hear from me if I'm lost.

@Idraxx, YES! I'd like to hear more about this plan of yours *schemy fingers* And what do you mean by parodies, exactly?

And finally, @RachaelElg, Thanks for the rookie comment, it definitely makes me feel better! Oh, yeah... I WANT TO SEE THAT STORY! Sounds like something I would get a real kick out of! So, if you could...? And ahahah yes! I'm a chocoholic too! Eating some right now Don't ever change!

Hey Ryan! Welcome! If you have any trouble here just PM me (private message) or if you want me to review or if you have any questions. Just let me know!! And I would love to read that story, it sounds awesome!

Awesome! Another Ontarian! We rule! Okay, not really. Ontario's economy is going down the drain, no one can afford to live on minimum wage anymore... I'm Emaly. No, that is not a spelling error. Haha, welcome to the site, drop by in chat some time, I have no life, so I'm there, like 24/7. Drop me a pm if you need anything!

Ryan... first of all, you own. Second of all that is the awesomest plot I've read in the last few weeks (Create and Destroy). But you made one slight mistake...

I'll explain how wrong this is. 1) Evil creatures are unheard of and so far proven non-existant on our planet. 2) Who would be stupid enough to stick around and name it? 3) Why live in a tennis school?

Have you heard of a user named Bolt ?

Also, nobody cares how implausible it is. Hey, how did you fare on that - fullmarks?

*Nods* Ryan.

My name is Apple-er (Add the er, trust me, it makes me sound cooler), and I am going to kill you! Nah, I joke, I joke. But you may wanna watch your back when you go into dark areas...because I'm always readying to pounce. Firstly, your ideas sound very very very awesome and I cannot help but think: Where have you been all my life?!!!

BUDDY, our writing ideas are the same! I mean c'mon, tennis school haunted by demons. I wrote a short story about a haunted pinneapple! Was it great? Of course it was!!!! Well I thought it was. And my opinion sometimes isn't to correct...

Hey guys, thanks for the reviews! It's great to see that people are reading my work!

@Rayneisthename, DEFINITELY will do, so many people have offered that to me, it's crazy! I'm sure I'll never be confused for long with all this help!

@Puzzle/EMALY, True thing about Ontario, but I'd never live anywhere else!

@TheNewHero, Nawh... I barely even rent, you own here! Don't worry about that! Thanks for the feedback on my plot, I like it too. I'm going to post a little part of the book on here soon, after I do more reviews. Want me to message you when it's up? Also, I missed what the mistake was there... could you explain it? I appreciate all feedback and any corrections! I have not heard of Bolt... why? And, yeah I got fullmarks! Thanks again!

@Apple I will definitely watch my back! WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN! And where might your flying ship currently be hovering over? Nothing personal, just curious.

THANKS AGAIN!

>>>Ryan<<<

Bolt is the crazy person who is out to assassinate Nate. (That rhymes! ) He is planning to take over YWS. For what? We have no idea....but if you see Bolt, run!

Well, hello!

Everywhere actually. My boat floats all around Australia, maybe over Antarctica and some other places that I've sworn never to tell anyone about. *cough* Atlantis *cough* Oh, no, you didn't hear me say that!
