Hi, new members! Welcome!
Welcome back to you too, Varenne. Haven't seen your name in a while.
Hai friends ..it is glad to see youu..!!!!!!!
Hi all! I'm Drew, just joined yesterday. I heard about the forum from a friend. I love to read (I once had a goal to read every book ever written...still striving in my free time ;)). Looking forward to this forum enriching the experience!
Hi guys. The name's Steven. I only found you guys about an hour ago and i have to say I'm quite impressed with some of the pieces on here. I only have one post as of now. I am a very voracious reader and tend to get lost for hours in both fiction and non fiction as well as graphic novels and comics. I am american but i wanna travel all over. I have been learning Japanese for about 4 years now and can read and write fluently but speaking is still a little difficult. Anyways That's about it
Welcome Troubador :) I wanted to learn Japanese but I managed olnly starting with alphabet.Quote:

Unfortunately, i've not read so much of the american literature and culture, so i hope being a member of your community would help me to make it up.
Does anyone familiar with any website where i can read good summaries on The biography of Benjamin Franklin and Self-reliance of Emerson?
You don't need a summary for Emerson; you can read the whole thing here:
https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Essay.../Self-Reliance
Benjamin Franklin has numerous biographies. You can read Wikipedia for starters, or you can read the one Franklin wrote himself here:
http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/148
Though be advised that American English in the mid-18th century looks and reads somewhat differently from today's.
Thanks for the links. :)Quote:

Glad I found this lol hi my name is Genna im not as secretive as my rather bare profile would suggest just having trouble setting up from my phone. My favourite book well I don't have one as there are way to many to choose from lol if I had to pick it would be between phantom of the opera or to kill a mockingbird. I am a massive doctor who geek as well lol and I really have no idea what else to say but hi xD
Hi there, this is my first time in a book forum, glad to be around :)
Hi!
Came here for help finding books, and people to discuss what I've read, which is something I miss about college.
I love LOTR, Hamlet, most of the Shaara books, and anything Miss Marple.
In between college and a Masters right now, working at a hotel.
I love both of them, you can come discovering some extracts on my website lorrainedey.fr ;) soonQuote:

Hi everybody,
I'm not nearly as accomplished as most of the people here, but I'm still striving.
I hate talking about myself, but just to be brief: I'm very open-minded and have read everything from Sylvia Plath to Jean Paul-Sarte to Emmi Lennox (a graphic novelist). If you really have any questions, I prefer for you to just ask! I just really hate writing about myself. So, I'll run off to the forums from here. Thanks for having me!
hi everyone, thank you all for giving me the chance to share my poetry
Hey there everyone! I write short stories and novels, and love all kinds of literature. It's good to be here!
Hi.... Iam Gunawan Cavalera From indonesia
Hey, Mike Arnold from Northern England.
Hi, I'm new here but I would love to make new friends if I could. I love writing in general but I have certain love for poetry. I really don't know how to or where to post my poetry but I'll figure that out later. Anyway, it was nice meeting you all! (Kind of) :)
Thank you dude
Hi!!
I was looking for a place where I can discuss the awesome (and not so awesome) books I have read and find recommendations for other ones..... I was hoping to find a network of like-minded people who will participate in interesting discussions about the meanings behind the stories. I have been a bookworm since before I can remember, which admittedly is not very much, but reading is a passion of mine and an intrinsic part of my life and I feel that by my literary analysis skills have faded with time and I hope to revive them...
Looking forward to lots of fruitful discussions and challenging debates,
Nina
Hi everybody. I've lurked around here for about a month or so, but have decided I might jump in the conversation. I've been reading a lot of classics lately, and have enjoyed reading discussions about them. Most recently I've tackled Ulysses (took me like a month and a half), and then quickly breezed through Catcher in the Rye and Tale of Two Cities. Anyway, looking forward to being part of the community.

I also like music, mostly any genre (except the new, commercial type), but especially the '50s ballads. (mostly due to my experience in Mafia II). Oh yeah, I also like videogames. But not the type of videogames that just put a gun in your hand and ask you to shoot a lot of people. I like the "storyful" videogames, the immersive videogames, the videogames that make you feel like you are there.
THANK YOU for the time you took reading this. :D
Hi. I'm trying to figure out where to post for help finding a poem/essay . . . my mother has her 90th birthday soon and won an elocution contest in Binghampton, NY in the 1930's . . . it was "A Skate on the Lake (selected)" about a young girl learning to figure skate when she realizes there is a bear behind her which forces her onto the lake/skates/etc . . we've never been able to locate the story and she cannot remember the author. I thought it would be a nice gift to find prior to her birthday celebration. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!!
