Anybody here a budding writer with works to share? I'd be interested in reading if it's a genre I like.

Maybe . To be fair I like writing but I aint really wanting people to read. Silly I know but whatever...

No pressure. I've been writing a bit myself...and it's hard to keep up with demand at times. Ha.

i always wondered if you shared your work online - how'd you know if the other person aint gonna steal your work

I've always wondered that. The Patent system, at least in the US, is quite complicated for me to look into fully.

I want to write but never really put 100% into it enough to share it to people.

I have one, but I don't have a story up at the moment. However, I am currently working on one, and it will be available soon.

I've got years-old stories in LiveJournal and Blogger...and it's been hell trying to gather them all.

Keep it up.

I have the title, the main character and the central theme of the story. The developing process is long, but so enjoyable.

Yeah, I've been good about starting, but sh**t when it comes to actually finishing. Best of luck.

I do

But I can't finish the story, I'm lazy kinda busy at the moment
