Bored on a train ride

Posted 27th July 2010 at 08:19 AM by Ronanida

So, first let me explain something:

I have a summer job.
This summer job is in the same city as the school I go to.
This city is 50 miles from where I live.
50 miles on a train costs, one-way, with 25% off, 10 Euros.
This train ride takes two hours to complete.
Last Friday I had to take a train to work, and then back home. The morning train exhausted the book I brought with me, leaving me bored beyond comprehension on the afternoon journey.

If what I'm talking about is not of my own creation, I can easily decribe it, but whenever I try to tell what my own book is about, I always have to go back in order to explain something. For example:

Hope for the future

Posted 1st July 2010 at 08:20 AM by Ronanida

As an aspiring novelist and a bit of a perfectionist, I have been working on my novel, Tal'mokor Chronicles, for over three years. I have literally forced my friends to read it over and over again, begged my literature teachers to do the same, and they all give me good feedback. But I want something more, a stronger assurance that I am on the right track.
Here, on this forum, I hope to hear criticism that is unbiased by any relationship to me. Here, I hope to meet others like myself and perfect...
