Hmm...Do you know a lot about that last one? Where's it at exactly? And does it count as a university or anything, or is it a you pay just for the experience?
It sounds really interesting, from what I read...

Well, the thing is...I kind of want to just take the aptitude test to see if I'm good enough, but I don't want to actually attend the school. Is there any obligations?

I doubt anyone ever fails the aptitude test. All they want to do is sell you a place on their course. Long Ridge Writers Group is, as far as I know, quite reputable, but don't be kidded that this test is anything more than a way of getting your contact details into their database, and enrolling you on the course.

Oh, well in that case I won't bother. I don't plan on attending, but I wanted to see if I could pass the test. If it's just a ploy, then I guess there's no point.
Thank you Mike!

Judging by that, Envy, I don't think you can get a good idea of how adept you are at writing. |

I actually go to Gametalk since the year 2000. It's a good forum, actually was what got me interested in writing if you'd believe me. I wrote in Fanfics on there, and soon into writing. I'm Dr. Kingland on there.
