    Hello you lovely people

    Hi. I've been writing with some degree of seriousness for about five years. Have finished a novel and almost completed a Graphic novel (interviewing artists at the moment). I'm busy planning my second nov at the moment. Of course only just beginning the search for agents/publishers etc. so trying to ready myself for the inevitable rejections coming my way. Anyway, thought I should get myself out there a little. Seen some fun threads so far on here. Am waiting for my 10 strikes to be able to satrt a few. Regards, JK.

    Hi JK. Welcome to WF.
    “The greatest achievement was at first and for a time a dream. The oak sleeps in the acorn, the bird waits in the egg, and in the highest vision of the soul a waking angel stirs. Dreams are the seedlings of realities.” ~ James Allen

    Hi JK, and welcome to the forums.
    The sand of the desert is sodden red, -
    Red with the wreck of a square that broke; -
    The Gatling's jammed and the colonel dead,
    And the regiment blind with dust and smoke.
    The river of death has brimmed his banks,
    And England's far, and Honour a name,
    But the voice of schoolboy rallies the ranks,
    "Play up! play up! and play the game!"

    Vitai Lampada (Sir Henry Newbolt, 1897)

    Thanks for the welcome guys! And yeah, Aderyn. They're becoming more and more popular. My problem right now is finding an artist to share the vision, preferably one who lives in the same country!
