It is within this category that registered members will be able to post their own short (or horrendously long) stories that are not particularly related to the MaSu story in theme or style.
Just create a new thread and post your materpiece(s). We may even draw inspiration from these for the MaSu story.
Share your creative spirit with others, hatch ideas for new works and, above all, have fun!
(or else)

Also don't post anything that you wouldn't want anyone taking, borrowing, or even using in their own work. This is an open forum and if you want to publish any of this work one day, keep it on your computer. If you don't care, then anything you post here is open to all!

Hah, yeah. I never think of the legal stuff. Thanks for that Lucky ;D.
Doesn't really apply to me though since none of my stories are anywhere near complete. Score one for procrastination!

I like how Korski calls this his domain. If he means the domain of unfinished stories, then yes...this IS his domain. Haha.
And also, like my creative writing teacher told me, someone can take your ideas but cannot make them their own. The only way someone can legitimately steal your work is if they steal an entire story and sell it with their name. So neh!

Yes, this is the domain of unrestricted creativity and ADD, lol. The "stories" I have here are just foundations of ideas for the most part. I try to start short stories but they always end up long and then I get lazy. Which is why I'm hoping this co-writing thing works out  |

Not necessarily, all the ideas are there. Either in my plot outlines or in my head. It's just that I can never choose which idea, from the unending torrent of them that gushes through my mind's eye, that I want to continue with. That and I never feel like what I write is up to my own personal expectations.
The only thing that is restricted is the public view of those ideas. Plus I don't REALLY have ADD, lol. I can pay attention if need be. I just choose not to sometimes, haha.
AND... the unrestricted creativity was directed at anyone that decides to write or post some fun stories on here, not just myself. The "Domain" thing was just a joke cuz Lucky made me moderator of this section, lol.
Your move sir!

Well, I know you don't have ADD, you're just lazy. What you need to do is write out all your ideas. And hell, if you like more than one for a single story, incorporate them all into one story. Part of the reason why my DoC story has stalled is because I had to many cliché ideas, which caused me to rework everything, but as a result I have to create vast religions, histories, lands and people. And it doesn't help when I lack inspiration. And creativity is never restricted unless one allows it to be. This is something I suffer from currently.  |

Well I usually do write out all my ideas, but the problem is that there are quite often too many and I want to include them all, lol. It's hard to think of reasons for all of them to connect. Maybe it'd be better to pick out a few of the really good ideas and then explore and expand those.
Either that or I keep thinking of better versions of the ideas and keep changing the story until I confuse myself.
Anyways, just stop restricting yourself! Open those floodgates! Who cares how crazy you'd seem. It works for me, lol.
