From the owner of KnightTime Productions and of Warman's Death Field, the King of Swissland and C-in-C of the Imperial 8th Swissland Brigade and the 1st Emperor's Own Carebear Hussar regiment, KingWarman88 is writing a autobiography on his Mutliplayer experiences, starting from his young days on Neopets and Kings Of Chaos to Total War, and other games he has graced.


I just have to find a publisher. I'll make sure to give some of you guys free copies :clown:.

Seriously? You never struck me as the writer type - you don't write mini-novels when you post like some around here. What is your angle to get people interested in it? I'm sure a publisher would want to know that.

This should probably be elsewhere - Frontroom maybe?

If he is serious, I bet once he sits down and writes what you deems "the start" he'll read it and go...'huh, thats not as long as I thought it would be.'

I hope he is serious! I have been looking for a good book to read! I think he should write it in some kerouacian fashion (please include carebears!)! :)

Yeah, that is always my problem. I've been told a few times that I should write a book, but I can't fill the pages with interesting stuff. I cover my point in a couple of sentences when it should be several paragraphs. That is why I go for one-liners here - because it's all I've got. :laugh4:

University has trained me to write in as concise as way as possible when doing formal pieces, too much stuff to ram into too small a word count.

I was told to right an autobiography once for a summer class. I stopped after the 16th page. About when I was 7 :/

I do that naturally, so I have to painfully expand or fluff my stuff up, usually be 20% of the word count at least.

I am naturally fluffy, so I consider myself to be blessed. yay.

How can you guys be concise, it kills me. Literally. And so has essay writing become my weakest point, and narrative writing my core.

I find the incorrect grammar in the title ironic.

Everyone loves video games Greg.

That bet would be wrongly place. Several hundreds pages plus pictures!

Free copy for you! I shall do that.

I can't wait to get my hands on a copy.

As for the writing length discussion, an English professor I had told me an essay is like a skirt; it should be long enough to cover what's important, but short enough that it's interesting.
