My Life as a God: Question of the Week - 1
Writing:-)
I can't remember all the details. I believe it was a writing contest notice I got from Long Story Short, a writing forum I belonged to for a few years. The words Free Contest had me skeptical, so I checked out the site. I even went so far as to ask Predators and Editors about Mernac. They reported that it's basically nothing more than a fanfiction site, which in some regards is true, but I believed in the OSC (open source creativity) idea...so I stuck around, got sucked into writing, posting, improving, refining, -- basically I got addicted to Mernac.
Part of what intrigued me about Mernac is the opportunity to shape a world. The motto - One world, endless possibilities - holds true, and writers and artists of all levels are invited to join and help shape this lovely world. The of all levels is important, I consider myself a fair writer most days and a good writer when I'm being extra kind to me, but the truth of the matter is that there's always more to learn about the art of writing. Mernac's a place where one can get honest feedback on a work, feedback that goes nicely beyond the "that's nice" point. I'm not a digital artist, but from the word around the forum, I gather there is good support and advice available for digital artists as well.
In conclusion, an ardent love of sci-fi and a blooming interest in RPGs and fantasy worlds brought me to Mernac.
