And a playtoy Kitty saunters in..

Sorry for the rather childish header.. Im an overly affectionate(probably effiminate to boot ) 17 yr old guy from West Australia.. I'm not very smart at all, but I do strive to try and make my story writing as good as possible.

I'm the kind of person that struggles with everything I have to do well, only to find I still do worse than the 'smart kids' who didn't even study While they are my best friends, I really do hope that one day I can become a decent story writer...

Anyway *cuddle* Nice ta meetcha, hope no one minds if I post some stuff soon >_>

Hi kokoriet & welcome to WF. You'll find a few aussies on site as well as many things of interest.

What does kokoriet signify? it's not a word I've seen before. (If it's your name, oops! But then I'd like to know where it's from)

Don't worry about the 'smart' kids; it's the ones who work & strive who have built the world around us. They're the ones who learn to keep trying, no matter what, rather than give in when the quick & easy fails.

*Grin* thankyou

My RL name is Ric... which I well, sometimes really hate.. and when I first began wondering i I should ever write a story, the name Kokoriet just popper into my head, and I began to use it for myself, although I do prefer Koko to the full title

Another name I sometimes go by is saidryian, which is one of the obscure characters in the story.. if I ever ever begin to write it in full..

Bleh, I've already learnt so much from this place, I'd just like to say thankyou in advance to everyone on and off this forum, for helping me out so much

Hi there, Kokoriet, and welcome to the forums. I guess I was one of those smart kids... never felt I did anything all through high school and university...

*pokes before requesting permission to hug nickie* My friend Jack was the best student in our school, it got a tad depressing seeing him do so well, with so little study, when I was essentially the worst, with hours poured into every night struggling to remember facts and formulae..

Seems a bit unfair but eh, it a weird way it was both amusing and utterly depressing

I still think hes the greatest for creating the most beautiful story I have ever read though, and I'm eternally greatful for having met him, and seeing what I hope a lot more people are capable of in life.

*Curses babble* I'll go hush hush now, sorry for writing too much, I keep on doing it

Whoah, very affectionate. Stabing with forks (blunt ones!) and cuddles in the same post. Incredible.

Have fun.

Hello Koko! I'll be glad to read any fantasy you've got or much of any fiction. I don't normally read non-fiction though. Glad you can come join us.

Thankyou all for the very warm welcome *smile*

I hope Rico didn't take offense to the forking... I do that to everyone I like >_> *sniff*


I'll try to stay out of the way if I can.. but I will apologize here for making a thread in "How was your week?" with my questions...

I hope I can churn out stories other than what I have obscurely planned for what I hope to someday become a novel... meh.. just give me a kick Kira and others ^.^ Hopefully that will get me to create something at least, and not waste time flirting with people.. not that I do that of course =D

If not then hopefully this one would suffice.. I can't stop thinking about it.. I gave the original to my friend for her 18th birthday.. and all of a sudden I want it back so I can draw more of her... Way to go me, Mr fuckup
