Atek: A New Kind of Nerd

Just so you know, this story is ENTIRLY fiction. it was inspired by true events, but that does not make it true. the names have been changed. enjoy and tell me what you think though, please.

I waited outside in the car as my friend, Raven, "got ready" for school. She was a known drug user, and I hated that about her. Her grades were good only

you wrote this? it's not bad at all. of course I have to wonder why you're posting a drug related short story in your lj at quarter till four in the morning.. hehyeah.

keep writing though, you've got the same flare I have ;D

haha, i was posting it at 4 in the morning cause i couldn't sleep...been stressing about stupid shit that doesn't really even affect me that much. which is why i am up right now. plus, i'll sleep when i'm dead.

but thank you norby. you are the ONLY person that has replied to this. yes, i wrote it all, and all by myself. which is why i want input, but nobody seems to realize that. whatever. i'm glad you like it. it is nowhere near done. i'm actually going to keep it going until it gets up to date with my life. so it might be awhile. but yea, this is the story i'm writing that, whenever it is done, i want to send it to magizines and to oprah and ellen and other people to see how to get it published for free, and then if i make any money off of it, i will use that for school.

that's a good plan, you should go for it. investing time into a story can be tormenting though, so I hope you're ready to deal with thinking that your writing sucks(it doesn't but you'll think it does once you've been looking at this story for a few months) or feeling that you have nowhere else to go with your writing. but writing can be very cathartic especially when a story mimics past events in your life. I'm really glad you're using it as an outlet :)

lemme read it as it comes along more, I'll give you my input and before you start sending it around I'll proof read it for you or something.

ok, i will send it to you as i write more. i had it start at the end of may of my senior year, and i'm planning on keeping it going until this point in my life. but like i said, its not a true story, it is just inspired by past events. so i know exactly where i'm going with it right now. and who knows, maybe after college or something i will write a sequel to it.
