    I came, I saw, I registered.

    So, I'm not very good at the "introduce yourself" thing. Maybe I'll have one of my characters introduce me--maybe not. Maybe I'll just make a bulleted list or two.

    Here are some other things I'm not very good at and am looking forward to improving here:
    • Getting started
    • Being concise
    • Using fun language only when it is functional
    • Using parenthesis (only) where necessary
    • Using dashes--only where necessary


    Here are some things I'm pretty good at and hope to contribute to this community:
    • Anal-retentive grammar-hawking
    • Coming up with good kennings
    • Incorporating artistic combinations of voice and POV
    • Twisting flowers to look like hearts and stars


    Okay, well maybe the last one won't be so important here... but I do have a lot of interesting life experiences and factoids stored up inside of me that make for interesting details during slow points in random plots.

    I'm 17 and I've been writing seriously since 7th grade. I'm currently a student in high school and under-grad and an intern at a local floral shop. I used to only write poetry and essays, but lately I've only written things other than poetry and essays. My favorite authors are Ayn Rand and Norman Davies.

    Oh yeah... and I like you guys.

    Yeah *breaths on fingertips then rubs them on my shirt* We are pretty awesome if I do say so myself.
    But, uh, don't let them fool you: I am by far the coolest of them all.
    I am 'modest' in name alone. (hehe)

    (I'm obiously bored.)
    I guess what I'm trying to say is..... Welcome. *bows out*

    Welcome, welcome. We could use a lot more flower hearts and stars around here if I do say so myself. Glad to have you with us!
    Remember why you like to read, and inundate your writing with your love of story. No great writer ever found reading a chore.
