Introduce yourself and get to know the community.

New here!

Hey there people! I'm Vikare Daedalus, and that's obviously my pen-name (:P) I'm new here, introduced to this community through a random encounter on Omegle (What are the odds!).

Anyway, I ramble on. I have a few of my short stories uploaded on my blog (http://www.vikaredaedalus.wordpress.com) they are a collection of a few snippets of my life and a few fictional pieces. I am in the middle of my first book, which is a part of a Sci-fi trilogy(Work at halt due to studies).

I hope I can merge seamlessly with the community without any disturbances, if I cause any, I apologise in advance.

Thank you, and have a good day!

Welcome to the site. Glad you found something other than endless cam videos of dudes jerking it on Omegle, although I question the level of procrastination you're doing if you go there. 

I'll give the generic warning that in regards to writing a storygame, good ones can take months of work, so you won't get much appreciation if you spit something out in a few hours or days. For shorter stuff, there's  (I think) a monthly writing competition in the Writer's Workshop, and there's definitely prompts every two days or something that are usually quite good for just avoiding procrastination.

Well, anyway, I'm Steve, welcome to the site.

I think I'd be the self-proclaimed king of Procrastination! Haha. Thanks for the heads-up, I hope I'm able to entertain you!

Hi Vikare, welcome to the site! Feel free to drop by the Writing Workshop if you want to show off any snippets from your blog stories, and you're always welcome to join in with the speedwriting prompts.

Just curious, are you planning to do NaNoWriMo this year?

Ah, I see. I've never heard of it before, guess it's not really popular in my country.

Yeah, I do think I will participate after dealing with other things.

Ah that! I tried back in 2012 ^^;

And how'd it go?

New here!

I almost finished it...

I try every year, but I am very disorganized and easily distracted...

So, needless to say, I've failed almost every year. 

2012 was my closest attempt I believe...I did finish BOH though ^^;

You almost wrote a new novel all these years. It is pretty impressive.

New here!

Hehe.

Well, you are given a month and I do always have at least two bursts of inspiration each month which result in at least 20k words each time!

New here!

20k is not a small number!

New here!

8 years ago

True xD

But not quite 50k

New here!

The most I've written in one go is a little above 1k, you're scaring me now!

New here!

8 years ago

Aww no! I don't want to scare you!

Or do I? xD

I really am incredibly lazy and disorganized though, and my friends have told me that many, many times.

I get really hyped up about things but then kind of get lazy afterwards.

I wouldn't be surprised if we find more identical people, maybe triplets, quadruplets!

You don't know evil ;)

New here!

8 years ago

Yes! I've always wanted to be a triplet!

Are you sure about that? X3

 

EDIT: oops. Did I really write I've always wanted to have a triplet?
