    Hi there

    Hey,

    I've just been looking around for some writing forums and i came across this one. it looked good, so i thought i'd give it a try.

    Okay so i'm Aksel, and i've basically been writing for most of my life. it's got to be the most exhilirating thing for me. i'm working on two novels at the moment, one of them on and off for about a year. i write a strange hybrid of fantasy and horror, i suppose you could say. i'm not very good at describing my work. i also write weird little short stories, and the occasional poem.

    Obviously i love to read (my second favourite activity). my favourite authors are Mervyn Peake, Clive Barker, Neil Gaiman, Susanna Clarke, China Meiville, Stephen King, H. P. Lovecraft, John Connolly, and Anne Rice. i like alot of dark stuff, and i think that pretty much reflects back into my writing.

    Anyway i'll shut up now, and just say that i'm looking forward to being a part of this forum.

    thanks!

    Hello there, Aksel! Let me be the first to welcome you to Writing Forums, and I hope you'll like it here. John Connolly is one of my favourtie authors as well, and what's better, I can count him as one of my friends!

    Fantasy, horror, and Sci-Fi are some of my favorite genres both to read and watch... I look foward to reading some of your work...
