Introduce Yourself here and say Hi.

Hey everyone, I have been looking for a place like this and actually stumbled upon it by chance. I was search for a list of public domain works and boom here I am. I hope to be active and have some fun here. My name is Josh and I'm 29. I am trying to make writing a career, novels/fantasy/comics/screen plays.

hi, everybody, nice to meet you all here.

I am a guy from China, Eastern Asia, looking for the beauty of literature and also friends.

My mother language is Chinese language (ZhongWen, Hanyu, 中文，汉语), if any of you like to learn the language or have some interest on it, I will be glad if you contact me:
[email protected], or [email protected]. (I can be you pen pal, haha :-)

Hello to you and welcome to Lit Net

New member from Beijing with Chinese as native language.

I read lots of translated books which original editons were in english in my childhood. And recently, I start reading orginal editions in English. Difficult but lots of fun.

Until now, my favourite book is 'the Alchemist',but I'm afraid its orginal isn't english maybe should be in Spanish... anyway, I love it.

And hope learn much here from all you guys.

Hi! I'm a new member! I'm really happy to find a place where I can discuss about literature!

hello to you both, and welcome

Hi! I'm Julie, producer of 19 Nocturne Boulevard, an award-winning audio drama anthology series. Among my original works, I incorporate a lot of adaptations of classics - to date including several stories from Lovecraft, Saki, Wilde, and last year's Christmas special featuring Arnold Bennett, Rudyard Kipling, and Joseph Conrad.

Welcome everyone, you'll find this place to be a writer's haven!

Thanx! I promise I'm not a bot. Far too busy to spam...

I am brand new to the site, and though eager to utilize, I don't yet have a good sense about how to post.

I suppose this isn't my normal forum. I am a member of Pokemon forums for the most part. Slightly contradictory don't ya think. ;)
I don't I am of the younger generation, 17 to be exact and one of those freaky people that beleive Video Games and good literature are the two best teaching methods ever created. At least for the mind. Anyway, I read alot. I have a thing against alot of classics yet I do love reading. I do appreciate a good novel however and that is why I am here.
Nice to meet you all.

Hey there Espeonage. From one Aussie to another, welcome to litnet.

hello to you and welcome to lit net

.....

Hello all-
I've been a member of many writing discussion forums, and though I enjoy them all, I want to branch out and meet some more people.

I began writing my sophomore year of undergrad study. At the time I was seeking a degree in fine arts. For various reasons, I stopped. Then, I fell in with the lit crowd. Since then I've had plenty of stories published. I've studied with some fantastic authors (Peter Rock and Craig Clevenger). And I've been to a couple Association of Writer’s and Writing Programs (AWP) conferences which have allowed me the opportunity to embarrass myself in front of many important people. I'll be going again in April 2010 in Denver. Anyone else?

My first fiction chapbook, called Charactered Pieces, was recently released from OW Press. People seem to really like it. I'm happy.

I'm excited to be here.

hi to you and welcome to Lit Net

Thanks to you.

Hey, Virgil.

I loved the introduction! Thanks for sharing.

I particularly liked your quote... I woke up this morning with a quote on my mind that is somewhat similiar (I think)... the backdrop is with regard to overcoming trauma in life: learn to be your own hero. It's along the lines of self-preservation.

Anyway... take care,
Dayna

hi every one in new to all this.im in college ,im a mommy of a two year old im 19 years old getting a devorce.i just want to start a new life and move on with my life im ready to experience new things

Hello lovelockdown and welcome

Hi,

I just became a member this evening.

I recently purchased on ebay a leather bound copy of Moby Dick and did a google search to see what people thought of this "classic" that I have never read. I came across this site and forum and decided to join.

I am a former English teacher, but somehow I have missed some of the classics along the way. I intend to read some of the classics of literature, although I am handcuffed by only being fluent in english. I've read most of Shakespeare, although I could certainly see going back and rereading some of those now that I have more experience and perhaps a little wisdom.

I've greatly enjoyed reading many of your posts. It's stimulating conversation, and I intend to learn much here and have some healthy differences of opinion (and some healthy agreement) with many of you.

Now off to update my profile...

Bill

I was looking for a Literature- based forum where I could come share and learn, but not be jumped on, bold-faced and underlined maligned for accidently using the wrong their, there, they're on occassion. This seems like a wonderfully welcoming wagon of goodness. Look forward to meeting you all here. AJA

Um.. hello.

I stumbled on this forum while I was surfing on net, and was interested in one of the posts.

Well, first, about me. I'm female, with age around 20 plus-or-less, and currently living on Northern Hemisphere (so it's winter here..). And no, my first language is not English, so forgive me if I make grammatical mistakes here and there.

I adore vanilla, as spice or fragrance or flower, and I love literature, hence my nickname's VanillaInk.

Since I like literature, I was immediately attracted and registered as a member once I saw the title of the forum, knowing there are also others with same interest as mine in this forum. I hope to stay around long and enjoy the time I'll spend here with all of you guys!

hello to you all and welcome

Hello everyone and nice to meet you all! I just stumbled upon this forum whilst looking for commentary on God of Small Things by Arundhati Roy. I am 17 years old and have been a very "heavy" reader since around fifth grade. I like a wide variety of genres and authors, and I am very much looking forward to finding some fantastic recommendations/discussion. I'm generally quite the tentative poster when it comes to these types of forums so please treat me kindly if I ever venture to post alongside any of you!

Personal tidbits:
I am a Minnesota gal, youngest in my family, and currently a senior in Highschool. I have been recently accepted to college (Huzzah!) where I plan on double majoring in English Literature, and (Most Likely) Creative Writing. Alongside that I am going to minor in Japanese Studies. I have been teaching myself Japanese for about 4 years and would someday like to teach English in Japan. :] My other hobbies include sketching, watching Anime, and playing Video Games.
