Whatever: 10 Things Teenage Writers Should Know About Writing (http://www.scalzi.com/whatever/004175.html)

As a lot of us, I think, are teenagers or not far past it!

[Raven]

Indeed. Interesting stuff.

While it's good general advices it really doesn't apply to all teenagers. Although it gives us something to chew on, thank you for posting this, ... Person.

:D

I LOVED THAT ARTICLE.
All those people who responded with "rarr u a bad man 4 saying my riteng sux" need to stop sucking.
Also, I don't see where he gets off calling that "The Statue" story crap- I loved it!

[Ferret]

Neat read, but the part about the paper is nill; editors can't do much to you, and I should now, I am one.

[Car'Mel]

That was quite nice and also some of it was true.

[Shiranai-san]

That was a good read. I'm getting tired of the lack of grammar that is taught in the High School English classroom in my area. We deal more with comprehension than with anything else. Well, I'm taking A.P. Language and Composition so hopefully my grammar will improve greatly.

Thank you for sharing.

Awesome, thank you!

Also, I hope you don't mind if I don't go out of my way to use current slang and such; there's very little more pathetic than a 36-year-old man dropping slang to prove he's hip to the kids. I own a minivan and the complete works of Journey;
Dude, that Journey song kicks ass though: Just a small town girl, livin' in a lonely world. She took the midnight train goin an-eeee-where... and so on...

blarg, number three... I need to do what Steven King does and just lock myself in my room until I write a set number of pages...

Four... There's more to life then wry mockery? Wow, learn something new every day...

Interesting article, now I just have to get the crowbar and pry myself from the computer and take the advice. Especially three and five. I haven't read anything since House of Leaves almost six months ago... (great read though)

Interesting. I guess I'll find out after I write my first story.
