Introduce Yourself here and say Hi.

Hi i am a 12 year old with a love for horror and reading killing stalking

[shakespeare1]

I'm a high school student who loves literature, especially Shakespeare. Other favorites include The Scarlet Pimpernel, Dumas, The Scarlet Letter, etc. Really anything written well I'll enjoy. I also love music (listening to Handel as I type). I play trombone in several groups and play piano pretty well too (working on the 3rd movement of the Moonlight Sonata, the fast one). I also love science and math. Happy to be here!

EDIT - I forgot to say that I'm also a nerdfighter, so DFTBA!!!

Hi, I'm Alexandra. I used to have an account here back in 2006ish (username: bysshe). Since then I've finished school, done a degree in English Literature at Oxford, moved to Rome, and written two novels!

I was partly inspired to move to Rome by my love of Keats and Shelley, and I'm still a huge fan of Romantic poetry. I love 19th century literature in general, but I'm trying to read more contemporary literature these days.

My novel "In Exile" is about Dionysus being re-born in Rome in the 20th century and creating a new teenage following. A link, for anyone who likes books about Rome/Greek mythology/teenage girls joining cults and going crazy

Looking forward to finding people with similar interests.

Welcome back, Inexile. That sounds like an amazing few years. Good luck with your book! I love your avatar, by the way. Who is it?

Welcome back, Inexile. That sounds like an amazing few years. Good luck with your book! I love your avatar, by the way. Who is it?

Thanks! It's a painting of Dionysus/Bacchus by the Pre-Raphaelite artist Simeon Solomon.

Thanks. What a sedate-looking Dionysus! He must be taking Ritalin these days.
