Young Writers Society

I am against calling is a diary. To me, a diary is a book where you jot down any appointments or events. I have this book that I call a vent book. I write occasionally, but usually I just can't be bothered. When I write, I always write about the bad things in my life. All this stuff I've heard says that writing it down is supposed to make you feel better. It doesn't. It makes you feel terrible.

I'm generally pretty good at remembering ideas for stories, but sometimes- if I have paper- I'll start scribbling something down about some character. Sometimes I sit on the tram and create the lives of random people I see.

I keep a notebook with me pretty much every where I go. This is a good idea because this can really help move stories along because you'll have tons of ideas written down in here. If you don't have one, get one, now!
