[infinite_trial]

i'm no professional writer but i used to contribute short stories in a school paper under a pen name. i have a collection of poems and short stories back home and posted some in the musings thread. ngayon, nagboblog na lang ako pero di masyado naaasikaso cuz of work. pansin ko din, mas may drive ako magsulat kapag depressed ako. anyway eleina, have you deleted all of your creations? do you mind to link em here?

hello Eleina, love that presence of yours:) passion for writing, hmmm....I do but that was when I was yet in highschool and college. My mentor back when was one of my highschool teachers and she was also my proof reader. My columns were more of life's uncertainties, short to say the dark side of life. I was more into that in put, inspired by my narrow-winding life. I kept all my write ups in a small coffin-like box at home in my bedroom, the repercussion of walking in shallow waters leads me to bury my compositions and never gave it an occasion to read it again even when its been published in the school's paper.

Eleina, you can share your write ups under Musings Forum. Why don't you give it an avenue to be read and your style of writing be acclaimed.:)

Just browse the MUSINGS section.:cool:

Thanks. I really am not sure if im ready to share them...maybe some...coz i guess they are...me....and its like being naked despite the anonymity. But im trying...slowly. You can refer to the link below. You might be surprised coz even my husband is. My english speaking language is totally different from my english writings. I guess when i speak its all too casual and when i write its tone changes into a serious one.

Me neither but my husband is looking for a publisher....gagastu san daw nya (baka me alam ka, kahit yung magaling magdrawing, we can make manga and translate my english to japanese). You see my husband is my number one fan. the 2 novels well.... i have totally deleted them from the internet but i have another which is....i really dont know what it is... i posted it 2 years ago and totally forgot about it until you started asking.

you can find it at http://makis41.tripod.com

hi eleina!

same as you guys, i also write since i was in my school days for our school paper. back then, i usually cover news & events coz i wasn't really inclined to literary writing. mas gusto ko yung merong adventure, take pictures & then write the story.

even now, dito sa kaisha where i work, i also write but covering only the field i'm into. we have a column in one of the broadsheets here, & we contribute articles. so pag meron interesting (but not controversial ones...heheheh....ka si we're not allowed to due to ethical reasons) topic, i write.

once in a while though, i write poems. kaya lang, something or someone should trigger it! in other words, dapat musing-mode ang utak ko! :D kasi pag ganun, the thoughts are like water....free-flowing....or sometimes, bigla-bigla merong bits of thoughts lalabas sa utak ko! pag ganun, i stop & write it on my file-o para di ko makalimutan...kasi, epiphany moments lang yun....:) then, i sit on it and consolidate those bits of thoughts....

it's nice to know, a lot of tf members are into writing....sige lang....pour out your thoughts here.....

hi Eleina san!!!
dati nung elementary ako mahilig ako gumawa ng poems tapos nag improve un nung high schoolna ako nakakagawa na ako mga kanta and pag may drama kami ako laging gumagawa ng mga script laging naiimpress ang mga teacher ko,dati kasi ma emotion pa ako konting bagay lang naigagawa ko agad ng kwento,tula at kanta,Lalo na nung time na nagdadalaga na ako na in love na inlove talaga ako haaay naku ang dami ko nagagawa.:p Kaso di ko na alam kung san na napunta mga nagawa ko, pati yung pagiging creative ko and emotion nawala na yata.:scratch:

anyway sa musings po try niyo.

@eleina san,
Noong taghirap pa ang buhay ko,
para mabuhay lang ang spirit ko
gumagawa ako ng words of wisdom,
nakakagawa ako lalo na pag low ang mood ko,
pero pag masaya nakakagawa ako ng short stories
tungkol sa mga nangyayari sa paligid ko,
pero hindi ko alam kung pangit o maganda,
basta sulat lang ako depende sa moods.
Sa ngayon,kahit papano gumanda-ganda na ang buhay,
I still write sometimes.
I write poems when I'm sad and lonely
but since it's all about my moods and my life's journey
medyo masyadong personal kaya mahirap i-share...

Well, congrats sa lahat na may talent sa pagsusulat ng mga bagay-bagay mula sa kathang -isip.... I also into writings when I was in high school and college and even my first year here in Japan.... In high school, I am the literary editor of our school organ and in college, I am the sports editor...In Japan, one of the contributors in Pinoy gazzette; but I quit now for some inevitable circumstances.....

hi eleina!

dapat musing-mode ang utak ko! :D kasi pag ganun, the thoughts are like water....free-flowing....or sometimes, bigla-bigla merong bits of thoughts lalabas sa utak ko! pag ganun, i stop & write it on my file-o para di ko makalimutan...kasi, epiphany moments lang yun....:) then, i sit on it and consolidate those bits of thoughts....



tumpak ka dyan. Sometimes also in itself the story is the inspiration. You wanted yourself to know how it would end. when i was writing the novel.....i dont know how to explain it pero.....para syang memory...alam mo yun.....no stress of thinking.....yung parang me inaalaala ka lang....like minsan nasasabi mong nasa dulo na ng dila mo nagsisimula sa letter R tus it turned out na letter M pala and the R is in the middle of the word tus you asked yourself what made you remember it kasi walang trigger point. Kasi sometimes when we try to recall things we use to associate, halimbawa...yung nasa tokador...yung malapit sa pulbos...yung laging nasa top shelf....magbabasa ako....tus iabot sayo ng katulong nyo reading glasses mo. Hindi yan! yung lente! :D me titingnan lang ako. Saka mo lang naalala na lente kasi nakita mo yung glasses mo meron non. Yun yung trigger point na sinasabi ko. Sometimes naman out of the blue....naalala ko lang.

hi Eleina san!!!
dati kasi ma emotion pa ako konting bagay lang naigagawa ko agad ng kwento,tula at kanta,Lalo na nung time na nagdadalaga na ako na in love na inlove talaga ako :p Kaso di ko na alam kung san na napunta mga nagawa ko, pati yung pagiging creative ko and emotion nawala na yata.:scratch:

musings po try niyo.

Anjan lang yung creativity na hinahanap mo, sinobang kukuha non ;) wala lang sigurong trigger. At baka kasi you stopped taking time alone....thinking with your pen and paper.

Musings??? ...... i have a bit of a problem there. Im very protective of my writings and i dont stick my *ss where it could get stuck. Meaning, id like to be in control. When its time to delete them....it means it had enough exposure and its time to move on to a new one.

Your comment reminded me of my fears:eek: . I showed my writings to a friend and she asked me what it was about so i told her what it was about and then she immediately jumped at me and assumed it was my life. I told her no it is not. And then i became defensive. I felt like im being attacked:yikes:..... .im under attack!! Thats why i like writing in anonymity. People who doesnt write doesnt understand. For them a story always has to come from somewhere But sometimes its the life the writer never lived and so she writes of it as if she is living it.

hi eleina! i love to write poems, essays, and am into news writing in the office now. we have a newsletter here where i have my own column that deals mostly with the company's electrification coverage. but i guess am no good at it:D. i just try. mood sets in really when i'm down in the dumps. it's where thoughts come but mostly sad ones. though i hate the feeling, i still write down what i think and feel. i remember i had an article published in mod magazine entitled "love is all that matters". was in highschool then, and i received a gift check worth a hundred pesos hahaha! then when i was still working in Japan, i was a contributor for an English newspaper, The Mainichii Daily. most of my articles focused on the life of entertainers in Japan.

my posts here in tf are more on the dark side of life and love. am not a miserable or gloomy person though:D.

regards!!:)
