Bad A*s Poets Talking S**t Forum

I first started loving animay last year. I fell in love with the series Fruits Basket, and have been hooked ever scince. I've recently started liking other animays and mangas as well. I love anything that has do do with Japan, and sometimes wish I was Japanise instead of american. I would love to go to Japan someday. I am also quite fond of there food, lol. I just recently started learning how to speak Japanise off of a : How to speak Japanise CD. Wakatimasga? That means: understand.

My name is Duane, and I have several published poems under the name H. D. Sharpe.  My interest include: writing genre fiction, perticulary mixing Romance, Horror, Fantasy, and elements of the "deviant psychology" that is Human; I listen to "Goth" music created back in the Victorian era, modern Goth(ika), Metal, and Classical music and my favorite bands are Type O' Negative, HIM, DoPE, AX7, Smashing Pumpkins, pre 22nd century Marilyn Manson, and most importantly Nine Inch Nails; I have a working suit of tattoos which are mix of modern goth and Victorian Era Themes, as well as over half a dozen piercings!  I am will be recieving my B.A. in Professional Writing soon, and I will be moving on too grad school where my focus will be Gothic Literature, so old and out of date your your grandmother's grandmother probably never heard of it!  My favorite book is one these:  Rice's "Interview With A Vampire"; Brent Easton Ellis' "American Psycho"; Charlotte Bronte's "Jane Eyre"; "Dracula"'; a few others.  My favorite authors are the Bronte Sisters, R.A. Salvotore, Flannery O'Connor, Anne RIce, and many classic authors; I have made respect for everyone who writes from the heart in an artful manner, and is not afraid to express their work.  Author's like Easton-Ellis have inspired me to push the limits.  No matter how immoral a work seems, I bet if you look really hard you will find truth and a deeper meaning; which is intended show society it's flaws, not how to fix them.  My favorite Gothic Author; classic and modern or modern are: for America; Poe is the classic and Flannery O' Connor is the modern fav!  English Goth Author would be Charlotte Bronte, Mary Shelly, or Anne Radcliffe from the woman's perspective since there is a difference from a man's writing and a womans; male author would be Matt Lewis or Sheridan Le Fenu and I am not really modern writers from the United Kingdom; one never knows those things in an age of media.       Why do you like gothic lit?  I like Gothic literature because to me it is the last piece of history, and "experience" mankind has that keeps us from being sucked wholy into this world of science; which will destory us.     What is Gothic Lit too you, other words define it in your own words  Gothic Literature is about the human experience, gathered up into a ball, and then studied passion.

Heyy Bette, I know I haven't quite got the hang of this yet, but we have to create a piece of writing close to 500 words? confused, srry  :S

Hrmmm... I suppose I'll be writing something comedic, since I have no actual genre except anything but comedy... A past tense comedy about Summer Solstice... should be interesting for me.

My ab so lute favorite Final Fantasy game is the side game, Final Fantasy Dirge of Cerberus! loooooove Vincent Valentine!

Is "Summer Solstice" the title and when is the deadline?

Deep in the abyss of thy soul, Lies this alabster lined with oil, As to the melodic magic,
Its power to the perverse destroys, In what was all, But a fiery dance of joy.

*raises hand* Tophatgirl!

It varies from.. this ain't a scene it's an arms race-fall out boy sugar we're going down swinging-fall out boy (magnetic poetry) and misguided ghosts-paramore brick by boring brick-paramore

Oppurtunity provided itself however, when she stumbled over a tree root as Amelia hurried on her way.

Purple haze around her, she entered it.

If you have tough skin and can handle harsh criticism then ask The Perfectionist.  He will review it line by and if you ask he will give you the technical on it as well so you can fix it.  I am wanting my book to be the best it can be for I am sending it off to publisher when I am done so I want the harsh and in your face review.  This is just a suggestion.

umm here

  Final Fantasy- X, X-2, IX, and XIII even though I haven't finished yet XD and Advent Children and Crisis Core :3 Kingdom Hearts- 1, 2 and ReChain of Memories and 358...so basically all the ones that have come to the US so far XD I dun know, I think the second KH is great, but I'm not sure what's the best. KH2 could've been harder, in my opinion, but then there were parts of it that were like...REALLY hard, you know? I love the new battle system. :3

i am in the group.  I sent out invites to a few people today.  Maybe it is if a member sends out an invite then it doesn't need approval.  That is a thought on it.
