National Novel Writing Month

Send it my way mate

Thought I would read a few sentences and get bored but it was actually really good and intriguing

Can I have a read too please.

I'm up for doing this, will give it a crack when I get in.

Send yours my way please Fanny, sounds like it's worth a read!

I'm trying it again this year - I failed last year & the year before.

Also you guys need to read some decent fantasy. There's a lot of shit fantasy about, just like there's a lot of other shit in genres. There's some quality stuff though.

Send it my way please

Fuck fantasy.

That's the link to it.

really enjoyed it, look forward to reading more as and when you write more

Just hit five thousand words, fucking delighted. Might have a wank to celebrate.

Could be useful material for the final chapter.

Could be useful material for a later chapter.

How much of this is based on real life experiences?

Good read by the way

Some is, some isn't. I previously tried writing a book about a man who goes to prison, ends up being raped by his cell mate, the two fall in love and then towards the end he discovers that the man who raped him is actually his father who he has never met.

The clusterfuck of problems that opened the door to are obvious: I've never been raped. I've never been to prison. I've never been raped by my father. I met my father. I've never been raped.

I just read some of the dialogue between the two and it's horrible.

So I said fuck it, write what I know. Which is being an emotionally retarded adult male who has failed to shake hands with responsibility.

8,000 words and not even breakfast time. Get in El Hadji.

Just read through what you've written so far. Genuinely pretty amusing so far like, quality

Sounds like you've found yourself a handful of potential customers already El Hadji.

That was class.

I don't have a sufficient attention span for reading, I get bored, but I liked that.

I'm the same, I like the idea in principal but never have the time/attention span to do it often

Nick Hornby on crack.

Yeah, gonna read it when I'm bored.

You always came through as Susie's Hank Moody to me, just without the constant sex, so this might work out well.

God I hope so. I don't like working in an office or in a bar and I'm not pretty enough to be a whore.

Ali Lane kindly made me a better cover for the book:



Yes, I'm aware my name isn't Max any more.

Is "Diary of an Emotional Retard" too direct?

I guess the problem with that title is that it could be about a hysterical mentally handicapped person.

Emotional retard was the other choice I had. It's a working title.

Max could be your pseudonym.

Want to be my writing buddy? I haven't got any buddies yet on the main site.

A daytime nap and some awful football upset my working rhythm, but I got there in the end.



I've set my target to be 5,000 words a day.

Quality again
