Just wondering what it is called when a new writer takes characters from another authors book and writes a story about them, or uses them.

it adds suspension to the story so that you will think it is a good story and you might tell your friends about it and then they will go and buy the book so that the author gets more money. so really its just to get more money. but isn't that what every jobs is for.

In the body of the paper you do this...\n\nLet's say that it is a book written by Tom Lee...then you do the following (Last Name Page number ) (Lee 120)...If it does not have an author, you put the first word of the Title (Brazil*) --> I works with internet sources that do not have  an author or page #s..\n\n*the title is Brazil and its geography or something like that .....

That is kind of a broad statement. If you are doing a book, certainly you have something specific in mind?\n\nFirst of all, are you in the United States or in a different country? Programs and services vary greatly depending on where you live.

I know how you feel. I write my own sotries too, but I have a major problem. I can never finish them. I have far too many ideas in my head and I will start on another part way through the one I'm writing now. What we need to do is stick to pattern. One can write many things at once, they just need to get their thoughts organized.\nI am very organized, I keep all my stories/ideas for stories in three ring binders in my bookcase. I can just pull out whichever one I want to work on, and put it away to work on another. For some people, it is so complicated to get our thoughts out, and then you get people like Anne Rice and J. K Rowling who spit out new books every year. \nMy advice is to keep all your ideas. File them. Brainstorm some more, and look back on some things you wrote. Find an opening and blend them together. You may not be staring at the beginning, but hey, that worked for Lucas didn't it?\n\n\nSounds like a great idea, work on it. Don't give up.

Neither of these statments is even close to being true.  If someone spoke the line you said and another changed it, the term for what the second person did would be "misquoting".  The term for what the first did would most likely be "libel".

When writing a book there's no rule that you have to start at the beginning of anything - your life *or* the book.  If you want, start at the place you find most interesting and go from there.  You can fill in "the beginning" later.  I wrote a book (just for myself) last November and didn't write it in order at all.  I wrote the middle chapters first, but all out of sequence, then wrote the end, and finally finished with the introduction.  Then I edited it to put it all together in "order".  There is no right way to do it.

if you're talking about a book, i think a subplot is kind of like a story within the main idea.alot of times there is more than one thing going on at once that differ from the main plot of the story

Try clicking on the site below.  It has all sorts of different stories written by fans of various authors such as Stephen King, J. K. Rowling, etc.  Some of it is good and some is horrible; however, there's tons and tons of it.

I often include tone. The tone of an author can be a dead give away of his stance on the subject he/she is writing about - love, death, polotics, etc. - without it being blatent. Searching for the meaning of the author's tone has always, in my case, proven to be a good topic as it shows that you did a very detailed reading of the work and are able to comprehend more than just the words that the authors are putting to paper, but also their underlying meaning. \n\nGood luck on your paper!

This is unethical. If you are caught passing this off as your own you can be expelled. It's not worth the effort. Do it yourself. Why pay for something written by someone else? Why waste your money?\nAlso- this old saying is true "If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is."

What is the authors name???\n\nAUTHORS ON THE WEB \n\nA Collection of Biographical Sketches\n\n\nThis page is an attempt to bring together literary author biographies available on the World Wide Web. The biographies vary in quality, timeliness, length, and authority. If you don't find a biography here and know of one, please send it along. If there is no biography available, write one and send it along. It will take time for this page to become one of substance. And, in keeping with the beauty of the medium, it will continually grow and change. Credit for this page must go to Dr. Gretchen Whitney at The University of Tennessee where I was a graduate student in the School of Information Science. Dr. Whitney's "dead German" assignment gave me inspiration for this page.\n\nMore...........

They weren't exactly friends; during that time authors dedicated their works to people in power so those people would support them.  It was called patronage.

When an author writes, it's like when an artist paints. The painting is their work. When you look at a painting, you don't just look at what it IS, you look at what it represents. It's the same with what an author writes. You don't just take it for EXACTLY what it says, you have to look at what his words represent. What the author is "whispering".

Yes. I also spontaneously invent extra characters and insert them into stories, and write unexisting sequels to books and movies in my head.
