Have You Ever Made Up A Fictional Story?

I'm not necessarily saying wrote out a story or anything, but just simply invented one in your mind. I find myself doing this all the time, most often just before going to sleep, but sometimes while waiting for something when on my own. I do it often enough that I've managed to deeply elaborated on some of these stories and have considered writing some down. Was curious if anyone else does something similar with their minds.

We used to have to write short stories in school, so yes.

I lie an awful lot. Does that count? megagene

Ah, well yes I guess most people would have had to do something similar at some point. I suppose I was asking (but forgot to mention) if anyone has ever done so in there spare time, without being forced too. :oops:

Yeah they usually involve myself and pretty ladies.SolidSnake35

I like to write novels, so yes.

Ever planned on, or managed to publish any?

Yeah, I find myself doing that all the time when going to sleep. It's helps to clear the head. And though I can be quite imaginative, I often lack the creativity to put down anything worth writing on paper.

I've never liked any of my novels enough to publish them. I might try to publish the one I'm currently working on tho (if I like how it turns out).

Yes ! and its that im back from the dead !

People say you will get declined a tonne of time before you get accepted. So just keep at it untill it's on the shelves.

Look at the Harry Potter books for instance. Rowling got declined a stupidly large amount with the first book, and when it finally was on the shelves, it sold like hot cakes! Bet those publishers who declined the book are facepalming an hour a day.

lol. They are probably devastated.

It's weird to me that they turned it down. HP is not exacrtly the best literature out there, but it has "universal appeal" written all over it. If I was a publisher, it would have been immediately obvious to me that the book would sell extremely well.

yea i'm always jotting down random storys in my head and writing them down into a story.

So is Stephanie Meyer

Yep, all the time especially when I think of ways of how the Twilight story could've been better.

I've edited existing stories in my mind too. Thought up what I thought to be a better way of ending Skyrim and such, for example.

Sometimes when I'm really bored I'll play a game where I write a five page story without stopping to think about what I'm saying. I end up with a really random plot when I'm finished (my last one was about a guy who accidentally drops a birthday cake in a bomb factory and the fire from the candles blow up the whole thing, then he jumps in a hole the explosion made and finds a dragon that eats him then gets caught in a tornado)

Yes I have made fictional stories but meh.

Yes I've come up with several stories in my head and use to draw out stories all the time when I was younger and had boxes and boxes just full of my drawings.

One I've had in my head for a long time now and just keep building on it. Mostly at night when I'm trying to get to bed or when I'm at school/home bored.

Hell I've even come up with sequels and games based off it.

All in my head of course. :P But have drawn and painted out some of my ideas for it.

yeah, people keep saying I need to get published and make a few million.Allicrombie
