Introduce Yourself here and say Hi.

Hello,
I am new here and after reading some wonderful stories in this forum I decided to join. I really do not have so much time because I am a working mum but I am truly convinced that reading and writing is such an enrichment for our lifes. Whereever you live or whatever you do with literature there is a great band between everybody.
I am really looking forward reading more interesting stories.
By the way, I am from Germany (the former West-Germany) and I love Period Dramas, Folk Dancing, Black Tea, Blue Grass and the books of Connie Willis, Jane Austen and Elizabeth Gaskell.

Yours
Dixon

Hello there !


french book geel, here or as we so nicely put it "rat de bibliothèque"... 27 years old, still prefering a good rocking staurday night reading book with a nice cup of tea than going out to clubs. Not single anymore though...a miracle it seems.

Hello everyone !! :coolgleamA:

Hello, all.

I live in Southern New England, have long been interested in good music and good books and have tried my hand at writing a missive or two.
I will write more about myself in subsequent posts.
It's good to be in the company of those who know the value and force of the Written Word.

Cheers

Greetings to everyone.
I live in Kathmandu, Nepal. Most of you never heard of it, as it always has been overshadowed by India. Well, I am currently studying Language and Literature as a subject in my A Levels course. I joined this forum to improve my literary skills and to share my knowledge in context to the literary world. To be honest, I am not as skillful when it comes to writing. My initial plan was to join an RPG forum, but that required spending my precious time reading mangas (which I am no where near crazy about).
I am a huge "MUSIC" fan: I listen to all genres of music and I love reading sci-fi books. I haven't taken Psychology as a subject in my A levels course, but I find myself in the library reading the Psychology textbook. I am keen in making new friends within this forum.

Hello, everyone!

I am in LOVE with all kinds of books, but have recently found an obsession with the works of William Shakespeare. I joined this site to meet fellow lovers of literature like myself as well as improve my knowledge of the subject itself. My greatest loves include singing, playing the piano, reading, and acting.

May the Bard be with you! :)

Hi...

Greetings to all u new litterature network fans and lovers out there! :seeya:

My name is Paris and I'm a teacher from London...I love reading anything from poetry to autobiographical works..I also love to write but do so in short bursts (wat I mean is..I'm a lazy writer)..I have chosen the character 'stitch' as my avatar as I feel he represents my personality to some extent..'Stitch' is the name of the genetic experiment 626..a fictional alien originally created to cause chaos across the galaxy..(I sometimes wonder if I myself am a fictional character..as for his ability to cause chaos..(well the less said about that the better)..he is marked by his short temper and mischievous behavior traits that endear him to his friend Lilo..who adopted him as her puppy dog...although I will not admit to being anyone's pet..it has been suggested that that may well be what I need in order to 'find some sanity'..

I am looking forward to some serious conversation..a little humour..debate and insightful reading..(or and some playful fun)... :iamwithstupid:

Hello all,

My name's Alex. I'm a second year English Lit major at university. I'm new to the forums and decided that I should get that awkward first post out of the way here in the introductions area. Favorite writers include Hemingway, Twain, that squirrely guy quoted in my signature, and a whole host of others. Anyway, I'm looking forward to getting to know everyone, hope to talk to some of you soon.

hi my name is Sina although I'm not a native English speaker, I love English and I really enjoy Poe's and other short story writers' works. I'm not into novels any more. I don't know exactly when, but somewhere in University, I found them boring and unbearable. I want to improve my knowledge of English and I hope you guys can help me with that

Hello,

I registered here because I am starting my PhD in English literature in three or four months. For the time being, I am teaching college in an asian country. My school is in a rural area, so I am a bit isolated and have lots of time to read and think, but no one to discuss my ideas with. My subject is tentatively entitled 'Silence in Austen, Eliot and Woolf.' I am interested in the way things are not said in these three authors, and how censure and censorhsip function from regency England to WW2.

hello everyone

Hello every body iam glad for being amember of this useful forum ,I hope you the best.

Greetings from Ghana!

I registered because I just like to read.

Call me Leo.

I should have taken Classics and English Lit when I was at school, my teachers said so, my parents said so, but my friends took science subjects, so I took science subjects. I ended up at the bottom of the sea, in the Navy; literally and spiritually, a pretty low period in my life.

Resurfacing, I realised that I had taken my life in the wrong direction, and there wasn't much chance to go back, as I have four kids; I have to feed their mouths, not my ego. So I have decided to further my literary ambitions in an amateur capacity.

I especially love Ancient Greek material --philosophy is fascinating to me-- but I also love the modern novel.

I hope to make friends here that I can consult for opinions about what I am reading, so that I can annotate with more professionalism, and I intend to take formal qualifications in Latin and Ancient Greek over the next few years so that I may join the esteemed ranks of those who call themselves Classicists.

I love you all.
