Hello Everyone,
I am a homeschooler and I live in Ohio. This is my daughter's last year. Time really goes fast. My son is in college already. Now I have time to work on my master's in School Counseling. I really miss working but I enjoyed teaching my children.
Hello! I've just joined. I'm in London, I did my degree some years back in English Lit (before they discovered structuralism). My favourite novelists are Jane Austen and Dickens. My favourite poets are George Herbert and Pope.
I've just got to terms with Sterne's Tristram Shandy and I'm re-reading the short stories of Saki.
I'm a new member. I like reading and discussing with others, but do not have an English or literature degree so my perspectives are less than scholarly. I have few opportunities to do much discussing. I'm a member of a book club in my neighborhood, which helps, but we only meet eight or ten times a year. The other members are all women, so I've been reading a lot of great books that I probably never would have noticed otherwise (e.g. "The Red Tent" and "Still Alice"), but my usual selections wouldn't fit with the group's normal zone. I'm hoping that here I can fill in some of what's missing.
Hello to you all,
This forum seems like a good place to dwell in. :-) Very happy to have found it. Books have always been my greatest passion. They literally saved my life in childhood and helped me later on in life to build a solid and interesting career. Some of my favorite writers are: Stefan Zweig, Gunter Grass, and Dickens.
Regards from Israel.
Hi, everyone!
I've just joined this forum. I am pursuing my master degree in Shanghai and dream to be a scientist, but I also love reading books. Discovering this wonderful forum really exictes me.
My favorite writer is Muxin. Of course he is Chinese, but he had been living in New York for many years. If only someone knows him.
I also like some English writers such as Virginia Woolf, Alain de Botton. Now I'm reading The Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath.
Hi. my name is Elizabeth. I am trying my hand at letting people read my stories for the first time and hoping for a lot of helpful feed back on them. I love to write but never have let anyone read anything i wrote and now I have decided to start getting feed back.
I'm Argentinian and I'm studying Literature at the University, I also study English. I'd like speak about these topics with someone. :yesnod:
Hello!
My name is Fanny Rose, I am French but live in Argentina (Buenos Aires), 24 years old.
Each time I travel to France I come back with a suitcase full of books I had left behind at home and new one in French and English (those are a little more difficult to purchase in Argentina, there is less variety than in France).
I am currently recovering from an Austenitis which is making me read every Jane Austen novel - and some sequels! And I was looking forward to having companion readers to comment them, as well as other readings, in those forums.
See you around!
Hello! I am Lia, aged 13 but am called 'mature' for my age. I love to have a bit of fun as all of us do. I play on my PS3 a lot, and have several games on it. But that isn't my main hobby.
For I write every day, I sketch every day. I am currently in High/Secondary school and next year will be doing my GCSE's. :) I hope I am welcome here even though I am quite young.
My favourite quote is "Imagination Is More Important Than Knowledge" - Albert Einstein. I love to read horror, and particularly like adult horrors such as The Fear Index- if anyone's heard of that? I like The Lovely Bones too, and the movie as well.
I prefer to stay in than go out. :3 And that's me!:)

I am happy to be here! :thumbsup:
Hello:)
I'm 23 years old and I"m a student from Poland. I decided to join the forum because I found the opportunity of talking with people about literature really interesting. I love reading books, playing violin, painting and drawing and singing:) I'm a great fan of Tolkien's books but I do not limit myself to any particular genre, I just enjoy reading. I also hope to find help from you guys, because I start writing my thesis on master's about American Epistolary literature:)And sometimes it's difficult to find necessary sources for such writing here in Poland, I just need to talk to somebody who is very much interested in american literature, especilly epistolary literature:) Thanks and have a good day all of you!
Hello from Montréal
hi, you guys ^___^
Well. well. well. people here are so interesting, I was tempted to Join this forum. This is my first time joining a forum where I get to share stories I write. I actually don't like anyone reading my works. But someone, somewhere wrote that in order to be a writer, you need a reader. So I'm taking a risk. I don't like anyone criticizing my works because I'm super sensitive about it but I want to improve.
Anyway, to introduce myself, I like to remain unknown. I like walking at night, under the moon, because there's different kind of serenity about it. I like reading in a park, in a library, in my room, anywhere quite as passoble. I take reading a sacred hobby (lol). beside, I don't read when I need concentration. because reading takes my concentration away and it leads me to a better world I prefer. Writing is my passion. I like writing, although I can't say I'm a good writer, I know I'm a writer at heart.
I'm a nature lover, anime fanatic and an avid manga reader. <3 that's all...for now :D
