Hey, look! A poll!

So I've been doing some thinking about my writing lately, and rather than posting the results of said thinking, I'm making a poll instead. Just because I can.

I'd like a challenge. I work well with challenges. So I'm asking my faithful readers to throw ideas and concepts at me, and if I see one I like, I'll run with it. Current writing projects are NOT going to be put on hold, but variety is the spice of life, so starting other things is good too. :)

I have sort of a one-track mind right now. ^_^

I noticed.

I shall give science fiction a shot, probably sometime in January. It's a genre I've always felt a bit intimidated to try out, because of all the Science involved, not to mention world-building, but I figure it's worth the risk. :)

If you didn't know it before, my writing journal is [livejournal.com profile] secret_history. :)

I have a funny feeling I did know, but for some reason it wasn't on my Flist. Now added. ^_^

I thought of sci-fi for you for exactly that reason -- somehow I just think it would be a good exercise for you. Plus, I'm in a very science-fictiony mood these days. And hey, you play in SG5 or something, right? Piece of cake! ^_^

Yes, I play in a Stargate game. However, making shit up in an established universe is one thing. Making shit up in a universe I know nothing about is something entirely different. Eeep!

Hey, maybe I'll just steal [livejournal.com profile] forthright's world. ;)

Yes yes, write about Perseity! That will absolve you in regards to writing about pirates. Although, that would still be cool ^-^

Do you know if the Perseity stuff is still online? I should go check...

Write about Perseity pirates! ^_^

When Auia go bad...

Right now, it's all I can do to keep up with my friends list. I just don't have the time to keep up with your writing journal. Possibly in the future, I might...

Oh, no worries. This wasn't meant to guilt anyone into reading. I was just curious about what percentage of my friends list actually does read my fiction, and to get a bit of feedback. :)

Heh. Auia pirates...

I don't know. It sounds a little weird.

The Dread Pirate Red-Hand Ahau'aio just doesn't have that much of a ring to it. ;)

But none of your options included a "I'd like to if I had the time and might in the future but I currently don't."
Your only negative option was that I didn't want to read your stuff and that isn't the case.
