I've eternally put up the suggestion that the reviews section should be for reviews ONLY and chat kept to a separate thread in the non articles section so that we build up a database of user reviews over time |

I'd like a shot at this, I'm pretty good at writing when I make an effort. I'll try my hand at checking out some new stuff first.

It would make for a more interesting series of reviews than any movie or book though mind you.

| Re: Writers New & Old - Alternative Nation Needs You
I would like to but I don't do anything review-able. I see approximately 2.5 movies and year and attend almost as many gigs, and I have no fixed hobbies that I know enough about to write articles on. My newest game was received two Christmases ago, and was played many times. The news always makes me yell 'UNFAIR' or '____IST' or 'MOROOOONS' before I go off in a huff, and I'm a bit out of touch with other things to be of any use. I was put off reviewing books for good by Higher English, and I am useless at keeping up to date with music.
If I can think of something to write about, though, I'll let you know.

Hey I'll give it a shot - a few film reviews and maybe some book reviews? - perhaps not everyone's cup of tea but then everyones a critic ;p so I'll just give my own point of view *shrugs* besides that I could only suggest a blog-like effort; weekly updates of gig played and watched, parties had, music listened to, films watched, games played, interesting news bites - anything that springs to mind really. I'll submit a few pieces soon and we'll see how that goes - I also write erotic fiction but I'd imagine that's not deemed suitable for general viewing haha so I'll just keep that under my hat
Cheers

I really should submit something... I haven't written about anything outside of my company for about three years :/
