What's the longest story you've ever written?

The longest story I've ever written is The Magic Bath 2, which was a mere 44 pages (though that was A4, which is larger than it would be in a proper book). But the story I'm writing now, Space Academy, is already 30 pages long, and they haven't even gone into space yet! I imagine that this will be far, far longer than TMB 2.  big_smile 

So anyway, how about you?

Really? Should I email the ST and ask them to dig around for me?
They should have a list of your old digs, and the code for them underneath, so you could retrieve an old sig, or find an URL to a topic you're looking for  hmm

Re: What's the longest story you've ever written?

I just found out that The Magic Bath (the first one, that I wrote when I was 6-8), is 37 pages long, and that's with smaller, actually book size pages (since it is an actual book).

I just made a new topic about it, asking them. Or you could try and search through all your old posts, though that might take a while.  tongue

Re: What's the longest story you've ever written?

My longest story ever was a long 50-odd A4-paged story which was so bad it makes me cringe to read it back. Back when I was like 9 I had good spelling & grammar but the plot is so... unrealistic >.<
A girl who gets beaten up in a candy shop and has to perform on a school show on crutches because of a cast... and stuff. Whoa, sounds kinda familiar to what happened to me O:
Maybe it was a premonition... O_o

I know how you feel. I get embarrassed whenever I read The Magic Bath (bear in mind I wrote it when I was 6-8  lol ).

Literally, it was the dumbest thing I've ever read >.<
It was all... the story moved that fast that one page would be th main character in school, the next she'd be in hospital about to go back home in a cast D;>

But I can write better now C: Reminds me of that topic I made ages ago...

Mine?  A 96 page novel, written in size 12 text.  I wrote it when I was ten.  The grammar is good but the plot... It's terrible!

Wow, that's really quite long. That's A4 pages, right?

You know, pretty much all the stories I started when I was younger had a decent, if not brilliant, plot... but it was just the execution that was utterly terrible.

Oh, well that's still very very long, especially for someone of that age.

I might post a little bit of one of my stories here, just so you can see how terrible it is.  tongue

Re: What's the longest story you've ever written?

I can't remember when I wrote this, but it was many many years ago, so don't blame me for how rubbish it is.  tongue





Christopher was walking home when suddenly a huge gush of water started heading towards him. He knew this was the time to do his Free Running. He did a Speed Vault over the fence, and then a Cat Leap on the side of the climbing frame. He looked down on the bars. Then he noticed that the water was somehow eating away at the metal.
            The next day Christopher ran as fast as he could to the One Stop and got today’s newspaper. It said that yesterday a small water tower had somehow collapsed, but he knew that wasn’t the whole truth. Christopher went to the computer and typed in “acid”. He clicked on images. The acid looked like water. He guessed that the park hadn’t dried up yet, so he would go to the park and get a sample of the so called water. Ten minutes later he was looking at the sample through a microscope. It was acid. Why would a water tower have acid in it? He decided that he would pay a visit to the owner of the water tower.   
            Christopher arrived there on his bike. He walked up to the door and knocked. “Hello,” the man said. “My name’s Harry.” In the next five minutes Christopher had got lots of information. Suddenly Harry asked Christopher if he would like to play some basket ball.
“Ok” said Christopher. They went out side and started playing. Christopher had the ball first. He dribbled down the court and shot. He missed. Harry got the rebound, shot, and scored. Their match went on for quite a while. The winner was the first person to get to twenty. The scores so far were eighteen to Harry and nineteen to Christopher. Christopher dribbled down the court. He was about to shoot when Harry pushed him over. Christopher got a penalty shot. He aimed and shot. It missed. But a penalty shot give two shots, so he took his second shot, and scored. “You’re a pretty good player,” said Christopher. Harry groaned. They went back inside. Christopher asked a very important question. “Do you realize that there was acid in the water tower that collapsed?” “O yes that reminds me, I have to water my plants,” Replied Harry. After a while he came back. “So” said Christopher. Suddenly there was a bang from up stairs. "I’m sorry, I have to see what happened.” “By the way, do you like chocolate milk?”
“Yes” replied Christopher.
“There is some in the fridge,” said Harry, and went up stairs. Christopher looked inside the fridge and found it. It was a plastic bottle from a shop. He was about to take a sip, when he realized that because it was a milk shake he was supposed to shake it up before he drank it. So Christopher put the top back on and shook. He heard a sizzling sound. He took the lid and looked at the underneath. It was dissolving. “Acid”

200 pages in a story.
But it was when I was younger, and I noticed that it copied a lot of other books. -_-
