And with pen and paper, you can cook up some of the most beautiful maps eyes have ever witnessed.

Perhaps the Barrow-Writers could form a group - like a Yahoo Group or something - to share their work? I suppose we would need more of us.

I like to write, though rarely get round to it.

If you've not read The Hobbits by our beloved and oft-missed Gilthalion, don't miss it -- it's primo work. The link is to the old forum site, and may take some time to load. Here's the link:

Well, I do have one story of mine completed, and two others in progress, and I try to write as much as I can every day. Yet there is no prospect of publishing them. For one thing, I am able to write only in English so those of my country wouldn't be too intrested in my work. And anyway, who would risk publishing the works of an eighteen year-old?

Most of my writing consists of keeping a journal, academic writing, and poetry that I would NEVER let anyone else see, along with a couple "comedic" plays about our college experience with friends. I want to tackle short stories and possibly a novel eventually, but I don't have a story that I want to write yet.
