When I saw this I thought you meant you just finished reading your first novel half an hour ago. And was like WAT but then saw the other posts and thought 'yeah, that makes more sense.'

You're not alone, my friend. I thought the same too. Clearly Ken-Ohki has a problem coming up with good titles, though, judging from this thread. Might be a while before he finds an interesting one for his opus.

Let us all know how it works out. :)

Nice try though buddy.

Hmm, an AnimeNationer writing something that isn't bad fanfiction... This "novel" you speak of, it isn't just a compilation of all your AnimeNation posts, is it? :lol: Aw, just messin' with ya, Ol' Boy. Congratulations!! *Thinks* A collection of my AN posts...people'd pay the big bucks for that! :shifty:

Also, I was all, "What a hick!!" 'Til I read the Word Count part, then I was all, "Oh! He wrote a novel." *Nods head*

Actually I'm sure Prons would hold your own.

Hahaha, I remember that. Remember the spammy fun we have everytime my B-Day comes around? OR, remember the Awards thread I never tallied? I'm lazy!

I saw a small book in the philosophy section about two years ago or so about the meaning of life, which was basically a collection of comments made in a thread on a certain newspaper's forum (as I recall). The author (who was the author of the thread as well) was a student who claimed he was having a hard time of university, so he popped the question. Since the thread became so popular, he decided to make some money out of it and sold the better comments as a book. Your idea is not so far-fetched and you'd be sure I'd pay for it! :P

In any case, kudos for being able to write it out. Do tell us if it gets published and we'd like to hear some information about it. You can't make a thread like this and leave that kind of stuff out!

OR, remember the Awards thread I never tallied? I'm lazy! I tallied them. Twice, in fact, before sending it to you. I still have it in a word file, actually. I might just post it, should anyone be curious enough.

Speaking of which, are there any plans for another AN awards this year?

Oh, right, on topic: congratulations. Do let us know what this novel happens to be about. And when or if you plan on publishing it.

Sounds awesome. My work has been "in the works" for about 5+ years now :/ , I can't seem to collect my thoughts to well. Though I'm working on it now little bye little. Do let us know what it's about. Pretty please?

I doubt I'd be winning any awards though this time, :lol:.

Also, as soon as he posts the plot of his book, I'm stealing it.

Typical fantasy fluff, 3 kids go to a fantasy world, they're supposed to destroy it. You know, like how the kids in Narnia went there to kill everything and end the world? Yeah, it's like that.

Also my keyboard is finally working proper.

Awesome, congrats. Let us know if/when you publish it, I'll take a look.

This is actually pretty inspiring, since I've been working on my own novel(s) for a while now (hampered by computer problems and such, but whatever). Hope to be joining you in having finished a novel soon. ^_^

Haro!
September 18th, 2008, 10:19 PM
Well in order to best Ken-Ohki I have to design a building and write four books about it.

(And if any of you got that, you are awesome)

.....This is so wrong that my mind is blocking any thought of it through a natural form of self defence. Thank you for poisoning our minds.

Wow ken ohki, you finally wrote that biography about me?

I highly doubt that Good Times would make it as a book.


Lame, I know. But I couldn't resist.:P

Sounds nice. Mine is somewhat similar, you know with a love story that turns bad, then we start the whole killing and destroying things.
