Careless Whisper Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 Alright so basicly I'm starting on a new book called "I Alone."© Starring a man in his mid 30's named John D. Sumter. The subtitle of this book is going to be "Diary of John Donald Sumter" because it's reading out of his diary for when everything for his life starts getting really interresting. Alright, enough of the tell, now for the show. Here's the preview summery for this action packed novel that is so far in the makings. --Mr. John Donald Sumter' date=' a war hero mercenary who had been hired by many countries to fight for their sides during their wars. His reputation, merciless, highly intelligent, and all-around specialist in advanced bio-genetics training. His main career as a Spec-Ops enforcer was terminated by the United States of America under his own wishes when his wife had passed away. He then became a mercenary for any country that could pay him any larger. He was so compelled by pay that he worked for multiple countries to earn more, even if it meant being a double agent in a single battle.--Now, John is at war again, but this time he isn't being paid by anyone. This time, it's one man fighting alone against the entire planet of Earth. His crimes as a multiple agent led the usual rivaling countries into signing treaties and forming alianses just to collect his rich bounty. --No allies, barely any resources, and no truly safe place to be. Small odds for a single man standing alone and warring against the entire world.[/quote'] And there you have it. Now, I do wonder if it's in need of any improvements, anything that seems confusing, or any comments on this little summery. Thank you for reading and I hope to finish this book soon. And yes, unlike I failed to do with Immortal Chronicles, I will be actually publishing this book when it is finally finished. -- Meti Morgan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Careless Whisper Posted December 10, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 If anyone else asks to be in this, then I'll report you for spamming. I am not going to let anyone in this book because I have already decided on all of my characters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jericho Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 Well really. You post about making a book on a forum full of attention grabbers and people with short attention spans. There's gonna be like 12 people who actually wanna read about you writing a book. Post the book. Actually don't. Then everyone would log off screaming TOO....MUCH......READING!!

ragnarok1945 Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 seems like a great preview. An excellent profile for John, already with the skeletons in his closet with the death of his wife Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Protoman Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 Meti, It will be an awesome book for sure. If you can make it, I will read it. No lie! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arekku_Koro Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 I like what you got. Gonna try to get it published? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marisa Kirisame-ze Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 You should stop using those "--" marks. Make a regular paragraph with indents, it just makes the story look like a list. :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ragnarok1945 Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 Actually Fire Haze, I'm not sure the tab key works when you post, that may be why Meti was using the "-----" marks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marisa Kirisame-ze Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 You could use the space key. It makes it look more like a story instead of a list even on YCM. Just press space 5 times, and you got a good indent. My oppinion only though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ragnarok1945 Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 does your tab work when posting, Fire Haze? And Meti could have chosen the lazy option and not have done anything at all, so it's a good thing he did the "----" marks so we can see his thought changes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marisa Kirisame-ze Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 Yeah, my tab works for this, accually. Very useful button ya got there. Yeah, yeah, so its good you did something, Meti. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Careless Whisper Posted December 10, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 Actually..my TAB key does not work when posting and when I tried spacing to replace indentions, it just didn't show up on the post, so I just did two hyphons. Anyway, quit getting off topic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marisa Kirisame-ze Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 So, are you gonna post this story on here chapter by chapter? Or when your finished you will post the whole thing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quicksilver Posted December 10, 2008 Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 The character needs to be without emotion or care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Careless Whisper Posted December 10, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2008 @Fire Haze: I will most likely try to get it into the Fan-Fic section and take it slowly. Or I might just write it outside of the forums and then publish it and then send word here when it's finished. But I'm aiming for 50% chance on both of those. @Quicksilver: I already decided on his emotion as well. You will be able to experience his emotion when the book is written.
