Hey there!
I'm Drac (Or Mads, if you will ;D)
I'm from Norway, and I have a huge passion for writing, which is why I joined up here. In addition, of course, I also enjoy reading other peoples work.
I've been a part of storywrite now for four years, and through my time here I think I've improved my writing, I know I've made a lot of friends, and as long as this site continues to be here, I'm not gonna leave it. I met the most wonderful person in my life, my girlfriend (Lizz Emm on here) through this site, and it has made my life so incredibly much better :3
I've got a (rarely updated) blog that's about all my failed attempts at writing, the sources of my inspiration and my ideas of future stories. You can check it out at http://swdrac.blogspot.com/
I love getting comments, so go ahead
(I usually try to return the favor)
My stories range from the rather superficial horror/action to "deeper" love/death stories and even sci-fi and supergory horror. It's hard to sum up what I do, so I'd rather just encourage you to read some of the shorter pieces, just to get a feel of the diversity
Like so many others, I started a novel once. It got to be about 50 pages long before progress halted XD The novel is called Mephisto, and is about a man befriending a fallen angel. I started it 5 or 6 years ago, and shortly after I joined this site and got a taste for writing shorter stories, it fell into a limbo that I'm still struggeling to get it out of.
Some of my favorite authors include Clive Barker, Abraham Stoker, Edgar A. Poe, David Morrell and Stephen King, to mention a few.
I am currently reading a lot of books, but university makes it take ages for me to finish them
Some of my all-time favorite books (in random order):
Dracula - Abraham Stoker
Creepers - David Morrell
The Hellbound Heart - Clive Barker
The Picture Of Dorian Gray - Oscar Wilde
The Exorcist - William Peter Blatty
(And I can't decide what Stephen King novel to put here )
Quotes I like :
"The furniture is... beautiful" ~ my cousin
"There is only one thing in the world worse than being talked about, and that is not being talked about." ~ Oscar Wilde
"I can smile about it now, but at the time it was terrible" ~ The Smiths
"For there are brighter sides to life, and I should know, because I've seen them, but not very often" ~ The Smiths
And, my favorite poem is, of course, The Raven by Edgar Allen Poe But I also love the poem of his featured in the short story "The Fall of The House of Usher". Check it out
I have so many different stories in the working at all times that most of them get scrapped and end up as notes and small paragraphs in forgotten .txt documents. I would guess that not even half of the things I write get posted here, only the ones I finish do
So yeah, that's me. Come in, enjoy your stay, and leave a comment
