TheEdge, I've sent you a message!
Hi Everyone
I'm known as Cassie and I just thought I'd pop in here to say hello.
I am an avid reader and take my e reader with me wherever I go as it's so much lighter than trying to carry a library! I usually have 3 or 4 books on the go at the same time.
When I was younger I used to write a lot of poetry but stopped when I began my nurse training and have only taken up writing again in the past couple of years. Firstly with poetry and more recently with short stories and flash fiction. I have also been known to dabble in fanfiction for my sins.
Hopefully joining this site will help me learn how to not only improve my own writing but also widen my reading interests and introduce me to new authors and genres I may otherwise have missed.
Welcome Cassie. It always amazes me that my IPad carries a library on it. Is flash fiction when you get a hand full of words and have to make a story with them? Welcome to the site in any case.
Hi Pompey. Thanks for the welcome. Yes, with flash fiction the number of words often varies and there seems to be no set amount but can go from a diminutive 55 words upto and including a more wordy 1000. I usually find it easier to stick to writing between 100 and 500 words.
Howdy! Cassie Hughes.
Please don't be shy about sharing your poetry and entering our poetry contests: http://www.online-literature.com/for...s-amp-Contests .
There is also a movement to get some LitNet poetry into a book form; the content being chosen among current LitNet poets who desire to have their poetry added: http://www.online-literature.com/for...96-submit-here .
Both the contests and the book are a bit on the wane for now but only because we lack enthusiastic contributors.
Looking forward to your contribution to LitNet,
Oh. And another howdy to all and sundae ! (sic)
Ta ! (short for tarradiddle),
tailor STATELY
Thanks for the welcome tailor.
I'll definitely think about the poetry contests but I'm not sure I am good enough for a book yet. :)

Hello fellow book lovers I am new to this site. I am a life long booklover. I have my own library of about two thousand books. I read mostly 18th and 19th century litature, as well as Homer, Virgil and the like. I enjoy history and bios. I also enjoy music and art.
