Welcome to Writers Who Have To...

We are a forum of writers. If you're interested in becoming a contributor, send your desired username and email to Jill at: info@writerswhohaveto.com or visit Writers Who Have To... on MySpace.

Write whatever you'd like, whenever you want! This is an open forum for like minded authors. Feedback and comments are necessary! Remember, there are no holds barred, here.

For writers: When publishing make sure to add your username as a tag/label (you'll see the bar at the bottom of your blog edit window). This way it'll be much easier to pull up your work all in one go. Also, if you'd like you can add the type, ie: Short Story, Poetry, Blog, Rant, etc to your labels as well as the genre. This will make sorting much easier! Thank you!

WRITE IT OUT!!!
Remember: Comments are necessary for the survival of all writers!! Feedback is love and love is grand!!!

The Short Story Writer's Lament

I had posted a short story earlier that I had written a couple of months ago called 'The Continental'. I never re-drafted it. I knew it was badly in need of editing but I was too lazy to go back and actually fix it up.

I wrote it in a couple of hours, and I should've known better.

Re-reading it tonight, I realized just how badly written it was and how badly it needs revision. I'll work on it this weekend and get it up to standards. It's saved as a draft, so the comments I've received will not be deleted... merely republished.

The Blogger's re-unification (a semi-drunken post)

The music is pumping through these kick ass five point speakers, the bass is tumultuous from the sub-woofer. It's good, it feels good and I feel good.

80's Alternative. Yeah, it's like a walk down memory lane and I couldn't love it more.

Nostalgia grips us hard, sometimes. No wonder movies like 'Stand By Me' and 'The Sand-Lot' become fast favorites. Through such things we can relive moments of our bygone youth.

Sad, some would say. I don't consider it as such. Sometimes, we just need that one thing that will pin those days of old to the forefront of our memories.

I'll sit up here, night after night, blogging, writing incessant poetry, stories and what-not, all the while rocking out to those great 80's Alternative tunes, if you will keep writing.

This is the start of a dream come true, for me. Thank you all for being a part of this, for making it a reality... and remember, you can post whatever you want, whenever you want.. there is nothing too risqué for my tastes; what matters is that you write. There are only two rules: Leave your name as a label and COMMENT! No web-writer (which is, basically, what we are) can survive without comments!
