Got it today and have to say it's one of the best games in years that I have played, and I'm just around 12 or so percent through it.

Your mouth sucks!

Anyway, it's not as much GTA style as the video shows, but yeah, you could call it Grand Theft Horse.

And no, I haven't got it for X-Box, but for PS3.

No, it's that during the summer holidays there are lots of kids with much time on their hands. And we get a part of that too.

He hasn't published anything and won't for many years.
He is just some random teen who has written something that his mother liked, so he's bragging.

HE is just like I was in his age... Oh the memories!

I will have a book published in the near future, as soon as I can find the Flash Drive my book is typed up on.

But just to humor you, the first book is called 'The Amulet: The Beginning.' It's a story told in three perspectives about a boy named Tristan Daniels who accidentally travels to another world through the use of a magical amulet. The world is called Draconia (Drakonea in the world's past.) where he learns he is apart of a prophecy that could save that world, and Earth, from destruction.

My books start out simple, with just three protagonists and a few antagonists. The three protagonists' names are Tristan Daniels (Main character) Bill Daniels (Second main, his role becomes bigger as the books go by.) and Julius Daniels, Tristan and Bill's father. (Mainly used for a bit of comic relief in the first book.)

As each book continues the story, things get complicated as things go from bad to worse. There are two complete series' with a third and possibly final one in the works. (I'm working on book three on that.) Each series will each have four books and many recurring themes. I'll post a small TDN exclusive preview as soon as I finish typing it up, so when I finish typing it up and I announce it to you guys, remind me.

I'd definitely buy that book. The main character has the same name as me, which means it must be good.

Hmm.. 
Have you even been in touch with a publisher?
From writing the book and to get it published takes years, even if anyone wants to give it out (especially as it's your first work).

Let's say you've spoken to a company which publish books and they like it (Which I doubt, as the writer is a 14years old boy who believe in werewolfs). It will still take at least a year of editing by you and them before it's published.

He's right though. The book may be good, but it is hardly a possibility that it will get published, at least any time soon. But we'll see in the coming years.

Hey man don't be hating. You don't have to go through a major publisher! At lulu.com you can self publish your works in either ebook or real book format. You'll thank me later.

An old thread I know, yet I feel I have the right to revive it cause I created it. Anyway, I finished the main storyline yesterday with around 85 percent through. And now I'm ducking depressed about the ending.

I might do a 100% LP of it soon though. And thus John Marston shall be back in my control again!!

GTA is much, much, much worse. Especially if you're referring to IV. If anything, when someone's playing GTA, he's playing an RDR clone. Also, the game isn't very much like GTA. It's more like an RPG built on a Wild Western style GTA. So there goes your chance to insult me, Skorn.
