Hi there,I'm a bit out of practise with my writing and would appreciate constructive critism on my work. I returned to further eduction late last year and am only just getting back into the swing of things,part of my course was Creative Writing which i really enjoyed and made me realise just how much i've missed writing. I aim to write stories that provoke some kind of emotion in the reader,the more dramatic the better! I realised through the creative writing class that i took that my writing style is inclined towards fantasy and horror. I'd like to play about with other styles. I would like to write a dynamic thriller or mystery novel entwined with twists and turns at every corner. I appreciate raw novels that deal with realisic emotions as good as Irvine Welsh and H.G Wells. I love surprise endings with a twist.I'm a little on the sadistic side as i'm not a fan of mushy endings, well within reason,nothing too hollywood!

    Hi Cbailey321,

    My Username is Syren-, but everyone on the site simply calls me Brooke. I would like to welcome you to the StoryWrite web site. Our site is a community of people who all share a common desire to write, in some form or another, and to hopefully become a published author sometime in the future.

    I would also like to take this time to let you know about the new members group on the site.
