Introduce Yourself here and say Hi.

What's uuuuup.

First post on this forum ever. Looking forward to making many more.

Well, my favorite author would have to beeee... me. =)

Welcome hedbanger! looking forward to reading your writing.

Hey! Im new so just thought id say hello and tell u a bit about myself. Im 22 and Iv just graduated from Uni so I have a summer of free time before going into full-time work. I LOVE reading, its my life, I look forward to long train journeys so I can read!!

My favourite authors are, Margaret Atwood, Kazuo Ishiguro, Jane Austen, Louis de Bernieres, and Koji Suzuki. And Im ashamed to say I enjoy Jackie Collins when I really want to escape the world!

Welcome Elinor. I think you will enjoy lit net. Make yourself at home. :)

Hi, I'm a student from Belgium, 22 years old. I was looking for a place on the internet to share my interest in literature. These forums seemed very active, so I decided to give it a try. If you have any interest in literature in Dutch (Low Countries: Holland, Belgium), I will be happy to give some advise!

Hello all. Officially new here today, but been creeping around the fringes for a couple weeks. Still haven't figured out how to navigate my way through all the forums. LOL!

I'm originally from NW Ontario, Canada....but for now homebase is near London, England, where I'm studying for a BSc in Social Anthropology. I waited till my kids were all grown up and gone before venturing into the world of academia, so it's all still new and very exciting to me. Off for the summer now, and looking forward to lots of museum-going and art gallery-viewing. London has a truly amazing collection of such things. :)

Books and music are my continual companions. Currently I have bookmarks in Dickens' Little Dorrit (going slow....actually a virtual bookmark, cuz I'm reading it on my PalmPilot); and Graham Greene's Brighton Rock (cuz I'm planning a quick day trip to Brighton soon); also have taken bites out of several books on medical anthropology, but I'll try not to bore you with any of those scary details. *grin*

My music tastes are all over the map.... Scanning quickly through my list from today I can see Shania Twain, Sting, Tracy Chapman, Enya, and Diana Krall, just for starters.

Well, I'm off to see if I can get lost in another section of the Network. See y'all!... *waves*
