    Smile 'Ello! :)

    Hai! I'm Alyse, and I'm a sophomore in college . . . which is really student-speak for "SCHOOL HAS RUINT MY SOCIAL LIFE FOR 2 YEARS AND WILL CONTINUE TO DO SO FOR ANOTHER 2 YEARS BECAUSE I AM AN IDIOT". Haha, no, seriously, I kinda like school. Sorta. I get plenty of fodder for stories, that's for sure. I have one book published currently, which is a collection of stories I wrote for a class um . . . last year, I think. Yeah, last year. I rather like being published, and look forward to publishing more! So, um, yeah. Hi!

    Hey Alyse! Welcome.

    I haven't read your short-story collection, "The Trio", but I did see the positive reviews. Congrats on being published. Working on something new?

    Cheers

    Thanks!! Yeah, I'm actually working on a plethora of stories . . . However a lot of them are from middle or high school, so I'm not sure if I'm going to scrap them or salvage . . . I think once I have them all typed up, I'll post them here to get some expert opinions. The one I'm really chomping at the bit to finish is my retelling of "Phantom of the Opera".

    Welcome to the forums, Alyse!

    Hi there Alyse, and welcome to Writing Forums. I also like school, since I'm a teacher (!).
