Introduce Yourself here and say Hi.

[Brucelles]

Bonjour mes amis,

I am Bruce. From Brussels, at the moment, hence the nick. I am moving to France as we (I) speak, and I am also resident in Dar es Salaam for a part of the time.

I am currently reading Americans, for a change, as I realised that some of them can speak and write in English . Never judge a country by it's leader, readers.

For poetry I am a huge fan of Frost, probably because of having to walk my dog in Brussels' forest every day (The woods are lovely, dark and deep). For books I am pretty much omnivorous, as one needs to be when book-shopping in Tanzania. I don't read trashy romances or soft porn, but pretty much anything else is grist to my mill.

My daughter is studying Philosophy and English & American Literature at Kent university, in Canterbury, which sounds irrelevant, but actually leads me into areas I may not otherwise have wandered into.

Anyway. I am glad to make your acquaintance.

Just a quick edit to mention that I don't read hard porn either

Hi! I've been gone for a long time but now I'm back! Have there been any significant changes?

[Brucelles]

Yes, there have.

Hi everyone. My name is Edmund and I'm a student at Seattle Central Community college. I will finish my transfer degree in the spring and probably go to a university in 2009. I've always loved reading since my dad gave me a crate of old Philip K. Dick books when I was 11 or so, I plan to study literature later on. I really enjoy discussing books with other people who love reading and I hope to do a lot of it here!

Hello, Everyone. I used to lurk here, and now I've decided to sign-up and post (potentially).

Hello everyone, I was recommended to this site by a person at an amateur writing workshop I attended. I have not had the chance to browse through the forum's archives, but I will be sure to soon.

I am a high school-going-on-to-college student. I have been writing since I was 9, getting my start in the exciting and occasionally traumatizing world of fanfiction. I don't know if writing is something I would like to do for a career, but as a hobby it is certainly something I enjoy a lot.

Hi, all newbies! I am sure you will all enjoy this site so much. I know that I do and am quite addicted by now to many of the threads on the forum. This forum has so much to offer, so have a great time learning your way around and exploring.

[Shirah]

This is my first post, just to introduced myself, don't have much to tell right now except for the fact that I LOVE to read and I look forward to getting to know you. Have a good day!

[Gadget Girl]

Hello Everyone..
I'm Lana from Jordan..

well, i think we are all here do live and share one world with its fantasy.. this world is called "Literature"..

I'm so interested in reading and comparing Literature in Arabic with other languages. At the moment, I'm working on comparing Arabic with English basically in politeness strategies used in some literary works. Among those works is Pygmalion by G.Brenard Shaw. although it is a short and enjoyable play, it needs alot to be done in analysing it on the base of stylistics..

goodmorning

[unleashed]

shirah? are you from israel?

new here too, i found the site while wondering the net in a search for information about literature that'll help me write an essay for school..goodnight everybody (:

[LordOink]

Hi everyone! I am new to this forum. I'm currently a high school senior who has just gotten rejected to a majority of colleges he applied to. The truth is, I love to read, but I haven't read books (for fun) in a long time, so I've decided to join to "keep up" with literature; I'm a reformed reader! I'm a failure who's procrastinating on his essay. It's almost 5 am. I'm a failure!

[texasblu]

Hello,

I'm a mom who didn't finish college and I just enrolled in GWC in Cedar City distance studies, and I'm very excited about that. My major was Comparative Literature, which explains why I'm here. I LOVE the written word, and write a bunch of them myself. I look forward to reading some of your words of wisdom, and maybe I might have a few words of my own.

I stumbled across this site while looking up some stuff to help with my english lit work and it seems so far that it might be a great help! Even if its not, its great to have access to talk to people that love to read! I absolutely LOVE reading, I've got books scattered all around the place and I just pick one up and continue reading, and so often I end up reading around 6 books at a time!

Well I'm going to continue working on my essay now, but its a bit of a relief knowing I've got somewhere to come for help!
