I wanted to be a writer -- mostly science fiction.

But everything in life got lost. Every opportunity got wasted.

Is it laziness?
Is it depression?
Is it apathy?

Somewhere there exists a collection of SF stories written by authors
vng1987 -- vng1992. That collection is in our basement -- it is not lost.

Hopefully, I can -- especially in the Age of Internet Technology.

Are there any forums for writers?

Yep. I may or may not have a published and praised novel at 30 (I'm more likely to have a small collection of published short stories), but it's a work in progress. You write, you analyze, you learn, you revise, you try new things. Getting knocked around a bit seems inevitable.

There are plenty of forums out there that have fanfiction sections where people can post their stories.

I am sooooooo lazy -- I am not even sure I can write a whole story.

What do you write about?

How short? How big is the readership base?
