[B]i'm sure that if you wrote a book it would be great, transtic. i can tell from the way you word your posts. [/B][/QUOTE]

I've always had ideas for multiple stories... i guess I don't have the patients to actually sit here and write a book.. maybe i do... never really tried...

I do like to write philosophical statements and opinions... short things like poems, despite the fact i've only written one poem... that i liked.... I've done my fair share of philosophical statements, all of which i woul have liked to keep on record which i didn't....

[SIZE=1]Ah...

The Hobbit-JRR Tolkien
Lord of the rings-JRR Tolkien
Pawns of Chaos-(i forgot)
Dark Imperium-(short stories by many writers)
Harry Potter series-JK Rowling

That's about it for me...
I wrote a story for an English class once, cos that was our project...it was only meant to be short...but mine was the longest in the class. And it got me a level 6 (in year 8!) Ah, the best story I have written ever that was...[/SIZE]

I like The Thing In The Closet by Cristopher Pike and The Story Of Pearl Harbour by an author I don't know.

And I also like writing stories, generally fantasies (like evil creatures, giant T-Rex's) and stuff to do with the current craze going around at the time I write it (like Pokemon, Digimon, Dragon Ball Z).Stories that I have written so far is The Red-Eyed T-Rex and Little Aliens, Big Aliens. And I'm currently writing Tydan the Pokemon Master, which is in the Pokemon forum at the moment.

[B]Jurassic Park
The Joy Luck Club
Star Wars

[/B][/QUOTE]

[color=deeppink]I've read more than my fair share of EU Star Wars books...32 to be exact...

The greatest books I've ever read would have to be:

*[b]A Tree Grows in Brooklyn[/b]
*[b]Where the Heart Is[/b]
*[b]Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkahban[/b] (yeah, I like Harry potter :rolleyes: )

I can't think of any others right now...I know that there's more, but I'm not at home right now so I cannot look at my book collection. The greater percent of my free time is spent reading Star Wars and Nora Roberts romance books...hehe :love:[/color]
