Since I had the idea of this book 1 or 2 years ago, and now that i remember it, I'll do it.
This book, Kiddie Sailors, is one of three books I will be publishing. Since I don't like writing, why not post it on the forums where I will do 1-2 pages a day and get honest feedback. I hope you enjoy, and feel free to comment!
(Keep in mind all names in the book are fake.(Don't know why I'm telling you this) Also, there'll be no curse words in the book :)
Chapter 1: Ideas, Ideas...
"Renny!" As my dad left the room, I reluctantly rose out of bed. "EeeeeArghhhh......ahhhh....., wood workshop is today. WHYYY!!!???" I walked slowly to the bathroom to brush my teeth. "Move out of the way!" Polenta shouted (Polenta = sister. Yeah she's a food sucks for you :P) As i moved out of the way, I happened to see a seagull through a window. Oh how I longed to be a seagull, flying free through the skies compared to the cramped spaces I'm forced to sit in everyday except for Sunday. I finished daydreaming and brushing my teeth, got dressed, and went out to the dining room for breakfast. " Really!? Waffles?!" I thought. "Well at least there's syrup and butter."
"Time to go now!" he shouted.
I followed dad to the car and got in. "Sighh..........life is so...so boring...) "Welcome Ren!" It was Teacher Greg. He likes to pretend he is always enthusiastic and happy, but one time he said we were all boring pieces of... something. I forgot, it was a long time ago okay!? (And no it wasn't a curse word) "Today, we will be making sailboats! Do you have your materials?" "Yes..." As we were building our sailboats, at once again looked out the window, this time at the bay. It was so pristine, so translucent..."Okay, kids, let's go out for a test run!"
Pg. 1
(What do you think so far? Is it good? Personally, in my opinion, it looks pretty bad, but i won't know for sure if you guys don't read! Come back tomorrow for page 2!)
Anybody here?! :'(
Fast? Can you uhhh explain to me what "fast means? Like uhhhh......i think i get it?
The class walked out to the bay. Many admired the view, and were glad that some dumb kid took forever to make his sailboat due to, uhhh, missing materials. "It's a fine day, isn't it?" asked Mr. Greg. "Yes." everybody agreed. We all went to Mrs. Johnson's Boat Shack so we could go out and push our boats out, not so close to the shore and the tremendous waves. It was a real treat to get in an actual sailboat, and a good idea because it was super windy! When we got out far, we all put our sailboats in the water. Some of the worse students' sank to the bottom of the bay. "WAIT, what's happening to my sailboat? Wait, wait, WAIT! NOOOO.........it sank!" cried one of the students. His name was Luke. He especially liked video games like CoD and hated wood workshop. Today was the only day in a long time he was excited, and now his sailboat sank. Not my problem, he was extremely rude too. Our parents' were friends, though, and he seemed very aggresive, so he might be helpful in......... Oh yeah, we're also classmates.
Chapter 2: Acquaintances, Oh Acquaintances
"Eeeearghhh.....mmmmmm......Ahhhhh...." The next day, I woke up again to "school". More like the winner for Guiness World Records for most boring place ever. Still i had a few "acquaintances" that would be useful. Very useful indeed........TEEHEE (lol). "Kids, you are dismissed. "Hey, uhhhhh Dan? I need you to come with me. "Brad, it's urgent. Follow me." "Nate, go to the trees at the end of the field and meet me there." "Luke." "WHAT?" "I need you to come with me to the field. "Ray, get on over to the field." "Penelope, go to the end of the field, 'kay?" 'I'M NOT PENELOPE." "Yeah, yeah, Prego." "Are you just going to call me after a tomato sauce now?" "Sure, why can't humans be tomato sauce?" "Sighh......." We all assembled at the end of the field. "Do you guys know why I brought you here?" "No." "You guys want to get out of this dump, right? You guys want to be free, right? You guys don't care about dying if it's painless, right?" "Yes, yes, ye.....WAIT WHAT? I guess so.....me too.....me three." (and blah blah blah) Well then, I have a great plan.....
Pg. 2

"Mrs. Johnson!!!" "MRS. JOHNSON!"
" Hmmm......whaaaa?"
"We need you help."
"With what???....."
"We need a (pshhpshhhspshhsfsdfs= whispering)
"Well i have one righttt......"
"Howdy Mrs. Johnson!" It was Ricardo. Mr. Ricardo Hall, the local game maker. He's been having rough times ever since he got fired my his boss, Ron Johnson, the mastermind behind Sipsco. Poor Ricardo...... "I need a afasfsdfarfa ( <= censor :) "Oh I have one right here.....but I promised to rent it to Renny here......." "But It's URGENT! I have to go help the Cassava Cruise Ship crash surviviors!" (Mrs. Johnson only has sddfaffhdfg....= environmentalist. Being one is a good thing anyways.) "Very well then.... I'm sorry Renny, but you heard Mr. Ricardo! There are innocent people dieing out there...." "I understand..." So I went out, intent on making my own.
"Luke, you go find some wood. Ask Mr. Greg. And get A LOT!!!! Ask for a wood pole too." "Okay." Dan, you go get a bucket of glue, go ask your mom to buy some. Say you need a lot for some really big art project." "Prego, go get some bed sheets with Ray. Get A LOT." "Nate and Brad, go ask your moms and dads for food, say we have a super big party at school. Don't bring potato chips, bring stuff like beef jerkey. Bring and pans. Go ask your parents for money and buy that weird "Electric" cooktop thingamajigger. Bring a HECK lot of batteries!" "I'll build. I'll be waiting, bring everything next week Wednesday, 'kay?" And a whole week went by, and the day came. "Okay......now let's go see Mrs. Johnson."
Chapter 4: This GIRL BOY is on FIRE WATER!!!!! (lol)
Sorry guys I'm gonna do 2 pages TOMORROW. See al the references? :)
i like this it is much more creative than any story i have ever written. mine were all about Ninja's Strangely. but nice work. and one bit of feedback, when doing dialogue for character's go down a line when a new character starts speaking so that some people dont get confused. i will make and example out of a few sentences of your book. EXAMPLE
"Mrs. Johnson!!!" "MRS. JOHNSON!"
" Hmmm......whaaaa?"
"We need you help."
"with what"
"We need a (pshhpshhhspshhsfsdfs= whispering)"
"Well i have one righttt...
like that but if it is the same person speaking twice keep it on the same line. this may be really annoying and time and page consuming but try it for those who did not quite get the picture.
wow. thats a real esteem booster, Thanks nijal! And ill do that, i thought it would be confusing. there its edited.
WAIT...........BOOKS HAVE ALREADY EXISTED?! NOOOOO...i thought i was the first.... (sobs) :'( :P XD
If you guys wanted to know, i was originally planning on this being 200 pages....not it's gonna be 100 or so, hopefully there will be a trilogy. THIS IS NOT, I REPEAT NOT A SHORT STORY. Hence the goodness of my "typing" :).
yeah short stories dont work for me, i always set off to write one but my intro ends up being 800 words long or so, filled long and interesting adjectives and adverbs.
