    After pondering about it for a while now and having the outline and general idea in my head I’m doing it now. Why I’ve waited so long is that until recently I had my doubts if the effort is worth it and how the whole thing’s gonna be accepted since it’s basically about taking the red pill and going your own way meaning it exposes female dirty laundry in the process.

    But it’s much more than that, don’t worry. It’s based on stuff I’ve experienced in some way and I’m gonna bleed myself into it. I’ll be describing the process a young man goes through before arriving where I am today and my hopes are that, if I do this well, it’ll be of value to some young men out there.

    I’m just putting all this here for my own sake because it makes me more focused and determined, but also to tell you guys that having you around is helpful. It’s motivating to be among likeminded individuals. If you have any questions about it ask, just know I won’t reveal much.

    Thats cool. I love expressing myself through written word. I began writing a novel (more of an auto biography with different names and charecters) a while back. I do well at writing very rich and robust paragraphs, but when it comes to character and plot development, that is a serious challenge.

    Its difficult to do. I hate classifying things, such as “it was MGTOW”, but the story dealt with myself and 3 different female antagonists. So in that sense, it was “Mgtow”.

    Unless you have a REAL natural talent, its difficult to develop characters and frame a plot without taking classes.

    Writing is an EXTREMELY positive outlet, regardless.

    Resident cynic.

    It’s an awesome outlet. Occasionally the whole thing with how demanding the business is scares me, but then I remember why I do it and that I don’t really care if I earn money on it or not. I’m an avid reader and I’ve read a bunch of “How to write” material because I couldn’t allow myself to start anything without being well prepared. The only thing that’s really new is that I’m doing it in English which is not my mother tongue.

    I’ll enjoy developing these characters. I know it already. It’s pretty much psychology which is my home ground.

    I only put red pill and MGTOW in the description because everyone knows what I’m talking about. I don’t like labeling things either.

    I’d recommend just starting off with it being something therapeutic. Putting down your thoughts with the possible intention of sharing them once they have been gathered and sorted. As you go, you’ll find yourself deleting, inserting, and rewording until you get the flow you want. If it goes on long enough, you may well end up with a novel of sorts. And who knows, at that point, all you need to do is send it to some publishers and see what they think. My dad wrote a small book and found a publisher willing to print it. He doesn’t sell a lot of copies or anything, but it’s out there nonetheless. Just a matter of sitting down and doing it.

    Best of luck.

    I’m doing that already. I’ve got a lot of material around from the depression days (well, years). It’s mostly rubbish but it’s there. It refreshens my memory and brings back the taste of emotions.

     

    Thanks.
