Introduce Yourself here and say Hi.

Heyyy all, just registered to this site, looking forward to interesting discussions here and participating in them. My favorite literature is Sub-continental, may be because I belong to this place and plainly showing favoritism - winks. However, I read O. Henry in my last semester (undergrad lit. student) and quite liked his writing style and the way he puts a twist at the end of his stories, a very pleasing tinge. Am I going into literature talk? Ok, I think only saying Hi would suffice for this thread.
Cheers!

Hello everyone! I'm new and I've just signed up to share my ideas and to ask you guys for some help and feedback perhaps! I'm thinking that writing alone isn't the best way, so for an audience to read my stuff, then maybe I can improve what I do write!

I look forward to reading everyone's fiction and I hope you enjoy reading mine too!

Nice to be here.
My Mom died 4 weeks ago and we were best friends AND lived together so I'm feeling rather at odds. Don't know what to do with myself now that I don't have anyone to chat with. We were both avid readers and I'm a writer too. So I thought I would come here and see what everyone else is writing and perhaps have some intelligent conversations. That seems to be lacking at FaceBook. Over at FB it seems like a ticker of information goes by but I never get down to what a person is thinking and feeling. So I'm looking forward to reading what you have to say.
Love L-L

Hello,

I found this site with a search for online reading clubs. After registering I saw the recommendation to make a first post to introduce yourself & it seemed like a good idea. I live in the USA, work full-time & teach classes part time at the local college.

The books that I like to read are philosophical type novels, Dostoevsky, Hesse, Mann, Simone De Beauvoir, etc. Currently I have just started with "The Idiot". Many times I found myself thinking about an idea or a situation from whatever current book I'm reading at the time and I have thoughts of how nice it would be to discuss that. Being in the technology field I don't find people that share my interest in these books & ideas; and my family is not much interested either. Although there have been ample opportunity to discuss "The Jersey Shore" or "The Kardashians" with my kids but I have managed to resist that temptation! I tease them about how those shows kill brain cells & they tease me about my books being for nerds. Actually they are very smart; I still can’t understand how they can watch this. Maybe it’s like a gory car accident.

I am happy to find the site. Hopefully I would like to find a small group to choose a book to read and discuss from beginning to end.

Hi frndz.............
Hope we will have great time here......

Hi, everyone, I am Zoe. I am not an English speaker. I really like literature but I can’t express my feelings in English fluently after reading because my English is so poor. I always keep silent when I need to speak in public. It makes me go crazy. I try to say more and know more so I come here. I hope I could get some courage and overcome my shortcoming. Thank you.

Hey. New here. I'm an aspiring writer working on getting an ebook published. Haven't worked with my profile so I'm not sure what info will be there. Besides, half the fun is finding out stuff along the way.

Hi, I'm chris. Thanks for being a resource to writers.

Hello, everyone. My name's Intelligence, but a lot of people call me Intel for short. I'm in high school, and I spend a lot of my time with some form of art. I greatly enjoy writing and martial arts, but my favorite pastime and art is actually music. I've played the flute and other assorted wind instruments for a long time now. It's worth noting that I enjoy video games as much as the next guy. Dark Souls has got to be my favorite, but I love the Legend of Zelda series dearly. I draw inspiration from many of the games I play to shape my writing and music, which I think creates a pretty nice style that likes to do what it wants rather than what I try to tell it to do. I came here because I wanted to actually develop my writing ability, so I figured having people other than me critique it would be helpful. Maybe this way I'll stop abandoning so many good ideas and continuing with so many bad ones.

Hi, kids. I did not know such a forum existed. I am a blogger and write for several sites. I am currently working on a screen play. It will be my first. Glad to meet ya.

Hi, everyone, I just signed up and this is, of course, my first post. My name is Valentina Cano and I am a poet with a brand new chapbook out in the world as of two days ago. It's always awkward to talk about oneself like this but here I go: I am an avid reader and writer, a classical singer, an animal lover who has a lot of pets (including five spoiled snakes) and an amateur quilter. I'm originally from Uruguay but moved to Miami when I was nine and have remained here until now. The Chudney Agency represents my fiction manuscripts and my poetry has appeared in numerous literary magazines.
That's enough about me. I hope to get to know some of you better!
Don't be shy.

I'm Jett Black and won't say I've just joined because why else would I be posting here? Duh! I just said it!
I'm a writer and a poet and a dreamer and I will go sort out my profile now.
