    Sugar and spice and everything nice. That's how I made my novels.

    Joke. Kidding aside, I've been reading lots of books since I was young. Then this bestfriend of mine asked me to write a novel for her, as a protag, since I can make up stories etc etc. And so I did.

    Got about 12 typed pages then kind of lost interest, I have gone back a few times reread it and added a little but haven't gotten further really.

    I'm not sure if this counts but my works never made it past 2 chapters or 4 at most.:oops:
    Always abandoned it, because of mood-swings.:unsure:

    No, I haven't. I've considered it, but it does take a lot of (consistent) work and effort.

    That said, I do want to create one, but probably at most, I'll just have a glossary with most of the things that I've thought of in terms of world building, and character bios, etc, and then just dot point the history/story/plot that I imagine, especially since I don't consider myself a good enough writer to write a proper novel that seems half decent.

    Yes, numerous, but only 5 was ever completed. 2 of them were lesbian erotica. 1 was Felicia's Second Life Vol 1. 2 others were novels that I wrote long ago to ease myself back into writing and also to calm my nightmares.

    Working in Medical field is tiring... both physically and mentally.......
    At this kind of time, I will retreat back to my inner world and "simulate" a story......
    Usually, I began by simulating a world, the cosmology, the mythology, the map, the climate, the language, the culture, the country and finally a character as my proxy in sightseeing the world (hence why most of my old MC is usually a traveler of some sort). So it was mostly a top to bottom approach.

    So, basically, its a way for me to fleeing from reality...

    Not counting anything written for school, I made a short story once. It was one page total >.>

    I've written the plans for a bunch of plots, and wrote the beginning to a couple of stories, but I've never gotten very far.

    I put the beginnings of two of them up online a long long time ago. I even got one follower after only 1 chapter. I thought posting it would give me more motivation to finish, but it did not. I felt pretty bad about possibly disappointing that one reader, so I decided not to post anything unless it is completely completed, which totally hasn't happened, so I've got nothing.
    EDIT:
    That is a really good idea for a story! (y)

    Got multiple ones(different stories but same setting) in the planning stage I guess, but not even close to having one written and done as it can take ages if you really care about being detailed and consistent with the worldbuilding.

    I tried writing a book once about a pseudo zombie apocalypse when I was around 16, after I spent 6 months on 30 pages I gave up.

    I tried...
    but I never see my ending, I can't resolve the story and I can't end it with a statisfying conclusion

    Here is one if my short story with an ending
    Once upon a time, a young boy wakes up from his dream and started facing reality then lived sadly ever after

    In elementary, i once made a comic of a vampire trying to scare children only to be gunned downed by the army and sold his blood to a scientist who made a zombie apocalpse.

    In highschool, i wrote three novels. One is a handsome guy who has talent in a MOBA game, another was a fanfiction of fairytail and naruto in a dark story and the last was about a positive girl meets and falls in love with a negative dude who once love a girl only to be killed by a serial killer.

    In college, yeah, i have a site store my crappy novels i made.
