I could have sworn I posted in this thread before but apparently not! Well, here I am! Hello fellow writers!
✒️ Who are you?
I'm Arty! Basically my username everywhere is artyrambles. arty because artillery, and rambles for obvious reasons haha
I've finished two novels so far, of which one is self-published (but we don't talk about that one). Also I wrote various shorter stories that are connected to my main stories.
✒️ How long have you been writing?
Uhhh good question. I'm 25 years old now, and I've been writing stories ever since I learned to form coherent written sentences! Writing is my life, although until about 4 years ago, I was never able to finish even a single story. I guess my projects were always too ambitious, and before they were going anywhere, I lost interest. That changed when I got interested in history, and specifically tanks. My first novel was never intended to be a long story, but then I got more and more ideas and I just kept writing, and suddenly I had 90k words haha.
✒️ Your preferred languages in writing?
I write in English and German. (It's the two languages I know.) I only started writing in English about 7 years ago, though. I usually translate my stories, so generally they're available in both languages.
✒️ What kind of things do you write / enjoy writing?
Intense action and battles, intrigue, conflict, situation comedy, and travels.
✒️ Favourite genres for your own stories?
My favourite genre is action/adventure! Although if we're being specific, I'd say my current stories could be best described as Post-Apocalyptic Medieval Science-Fantasy, LOL.
I used to write ridiculously angsty stuff, but completely lost interest in that at some point.
✒️ Any current writing projects?
Yep! I'm currently rewriting my first novel, The Hummel Quest. It feels great to transform the mess that the original was into something great. I am also working on its sequel, which kinda puts me in the awkward situation that people who are new to my stories will have to wait until I finished the rewrite of the first part before they can start reading the second part. The other option would be them reading the terrible (but finished) original, but I strongly discourage that haha
