I want to create animated movies and video games.Also I want to be an artist and a writer.My teacher payed 36 dollars for one of my drawings and 49 dollars.I like to write storys(ALOT!)Go to fanfic so you can see them.I wrote more than twelve storys in my note books and some are Spyro or about dragons.I might want to do animated movies because I have a huge imagination and I watch other animated movies to get ideas.I want to work on video games because I like creative idea's like Spyro or kingdomhearts and finalfantasy.Sorry,I like to write and express myself alot.

Iâ€™m studying Environmental Science at uni (learning about how weâ€™re screwing up the planet), but I dunno where that will take me after I finish, maybe the Environmental Protection Agency, or the governmentâ€™s department of natural resourcesâ€¦

After my book Demon Kingdom:Rise of the Riders is done ill start a single novel about a boy that is taken by the Government to area 51 and its his story about how he tries to escape and what happens when the information of what is happening there gets loose...

What's area 51? Sounds like an interesting plot. Are you going to put Demon Kingdom on the net when itâ€™s finished, or get it published through a company?

First and foremost I want to write a book and be a published author, I'm not currently worried what kind of book. I may start off with kids picture books (hopefully illustrating them myself) but would then definitely work up to full novels.
However, being realistic and understanding that you need something special to write a book/series that will set you up for life (blast you JK Rowling) my back up plan is to go into graphic design, preferably illustration but again its a bit of a long shot so I'd settle for signwriting/advertising etc.

Yeh, it can seem hard, especially since their aren't many J K Rowlings around, but if you really enjoy writing then Iâ€™d urge you to do it. And even if it ainâ€™t going the best, you can always, like you said, have another job on the side to supplement your income, or just do writing as a hobby. What genre would you generally be interested in writing about?

You have never heard of area 51? Its a was a top secret USA militar base for reasurch of ailien and aircraft testing and all this other shtuff, but to many people knew of it so they picked up and laft...nothing if left behind showing what was going on....only the build stands.....

I also thought of another book to make once i finish that one about the boy in area 51. Its about a nother boy whos girl friend went to mexico for a trip and she gets kidnapped and held for ransome but the US government doesnt know what to do, but the boy begs them to give him weapons and he himself will risk his life to save his girl friend. But they resufse to so he goes to mexico with his fathers hunting rifle to save her himself. and he gets in lots of touble.... <D

[sub]I'm currently looking into careers that involve computer programming; it's something I've done before and really enjoyed. It's a bit difficult to learn on my own, though, so I'm taking more classes next school year. [/sub]

Area 51 is still being used. But no one knows what's going on inside. It's one of the most secretive places in the world. Who knows what they're researching or doing ...
They used to have an underground station around that area too. There was a random little building that looked like a run down house in the desert, but it was actually a secretive underground station for the military. It was eventually discovered and had to be destroyed.

I don't think so. Think of how many people have just suddenly written a book. I think maybe most authors these days get degrees in English and Literacy and stuff but only because they want their books to be good.

your mother is a very silly woman

either that or she thinks being an author is a dream and you need to do a degree so you can get a normal job

its not like theres even a degree for being an author, there are courses on creative writing but they dont give you any form of degree/diploma

writing is very much an art form, yes the english language has a set of rules that you can't really stray from but just like any kind of art, writing is a way of expressing ideas and emotions.

so like art you can learn to do it better but you dont need a certificate to do it

I'd like to be a cartoonist, and if I can't be that then I'd like to be a video game designer/3D programmer.

And as a 3rd option: an author
