I Am Tam
Ohhhh. I hadn't realized that you were actually asking me. Sorry! Well, with writing down stories, I always have a lot more in backstory than what actually gets written, but as the man who wrote 'Pacific Rim' says, that's okay. Having background that's never actually written, but is referred to, gives depth to a world. As to getting some written down, I find that having a friend to show the world to really helps, which is why so much of my stuff is in the RP stories. Also, not worrying about telling the story in a traditional style also helps. Write it down in a way that's comfortable to you, be that script form, flash fiction, drabbles (drabbles are a lot of fun to string together as a series of little glimpses and scenes that form a longer story when read together). Another reason that I RP is to help others get their worlds written down, and that's why my RP journal is named Random Xtras. LOL Many of the characters are the extras and foils to bring out the tale. And another thing that I don't always worry about is getting things typed out. I have stories that have never left their notebooks, and others that were handwritten into notebooks first. For me, working in cursive can help my thoughts flow and makes me feel connected to the story.

Aww. I've actually read a pretty good furry webcomic, it was about genius kids (who sometimes blow things up). But it updated like daily, and I couldn't keep up with it. It's called, I think 'Precocious'.
I'm not very active right now, because of stuff. If you don't see me around and you really need to get hold of me, you can yell at me over at one of these places?
