Hi, I'm Tom and I'm an alch...I mean an aspiring writer. I'm a huge Jim Butcher fan. I was never a huge book person. Usually I just don't have the patience and attention to sit down and really read for a long periods of time. The Dresden Files changed that. I currently am reading the series from start to finish for my third time waiting for Ghost Story.
Anyway, one thing I always thought I had was a great imagination, and a few years ago I started putting together ideas for a story of my own. I have no writing experience or anything, but just recently I finished putting together what I think would be three very good stories. The problem is picking one and writing just that one (Everytime I go to my wife with a new idea she smacks me upside the head and tells me to just write one for now lol).
My first story, one I've been mentally putting together for years now is a mixture of sci fi and fantasy, think King Arthur in the 25th Century maybe lol.
My second story is a space one. There is so much out there already in terms of sci fi but my idea is a first person perspective with a crew member thats only just begun his career aboard a city sized starship.
My third one I just begun the planning process but it's a modern day supernatural tale. There are a ton of these as well but again I think I have a decent twist on it to make it original.
Anyway, just thought I'd introduce myself. Up until now I've only been able to discuss ideas and get feedback through my wife and one friend who is also writing, but I was very excited when I saw this board, what better place to talk to other aspiring authors and get some Butcher news at the same time!
See you around!
