Thread: Welcome me! I'm here!

Hello there, I'm a very young writer who almost never finishes the things I start. I'm really hoping to get feedback and motivation, so here I am! I'm still dabbling in all sorts of styles, from scifi and mermaids to historical and gooey romantic garbage. I'm Malaysian, German, Scottish, Polish, and all sorts of good things like that. I'm also a lesbian, and since my friends and I are mostly barely over the eruption of that discovery, it takes up a lot of our thinking time. As a result, there are gay people in everything I write, because it's something I know well. I'm a realist, a pessimist, and an atheist. I love Warehouse 13 and My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic. And, um, I have a flavored chapstick addiction. I have peach, strawberry, coconut, pineapple, peppermint... yummy. I'd like to get to know everyone, so how about you respond telling me a fun fact about yourself?

Hey there, you, welcome to the forums! You couldn't have picked a better place for motivation and feedback, IMO. Nice introduction by the way.

"I'm a realist, a pessimist, and an atheist." I love you -- I mean, stay out of the debate threads

Hmm, a fun fact about me. My first word as a baby was 'Abba'.

Welcome again, and good luck. Lookin' forward to seeing your work.

Hello to you, and welcome to the forums!

Hi MissSuiYen, welcome.
Fun fact -- chocolate with chilli tastes good.

Hello and welcome, MissSuiYen.

A Malaysian, German, Scottish, Polish, lesbian atheist? We get a lot of those round here. You'll fit right in.

If anyone tries to tell you any fun facts about me, they're lying, okay? Although there was that time, with a Malaysian, German, Scottish, Polish, lesbian atheist trapeze artist I met who'd run away from a Brazilian circus and was a stow-away on a cruise ship that got taken over by a bunch of drunken Swedish pirates ... nah, boring, forget I mentioned it.

Welcome! I'm new myself and I'm hoping to use this site to get feedback also! As writer's we're all "odd ones out" so you should fit in... As should I

Welcome to the site.

Wow, thanks for the warm welcome! I'm definitely going to enjoy the company here. Bruno, I'll try not to start any firefights, but I can't make any promises. Petunia: I got a chocolate-chili Lindt bar for Christmas last year; It took me weeks to finish it because I wanted to savor its specialness. <3 Rob: Oh yeah, we make great trapeze artists. Except me, I'm so uncoordinated that I can't even play ping-pong right. Those Swedish pirates though... That's a story I'd like to hear; all the Swedish pirate stories I've heard involve sober pirates. Valodon, welcome to you, too! I'll keep tabs on your writing, fellow newbie. I got disproportionately excited reading your responses; I can't wait to get started participating in the community!

Welcome to the forum from an old writer who can't seem to finish anything either. *sigh*
