Hello everyone. Feel free to introduce yourself and get started.
I am 20 and the oldest of nine children. We live in the country in northern Indiana where I love to take pictures, read...and write. I'm currently correcting two books, writing the rough draft of a trilogy, and working on several smaller projects as well. My goal is to write exciting fiction that will honor God and inspire readers.

My name is Ivy and I will be seventeen next week. I'm the oldest of seven children living in rural eastern Washington (state). I'm currently in the final stages of editing my first novel, Never Alone, with its two sequels and many other stories on my to-write list. As of now, I'm planning on indie-publishing Never Alone later this year or early next. I have a writing blog at www.lakesidepublications.com, and am on Pinterest here: www.pinterest.com/ivyrosebooks. I'm excited to see what the Lord has in store for me and my writing!

My name is Rebecca Morgan and I am the second oldest of five children. I live in the country with my family where we have a dairy farm. I love to write and have about a dozen story ideas. My current project is a Christian fantasy which has about 52,000 words. My goal is for 80-90,000. I love Middle-Earth, the Ranger's Apprentice, anything Medieval, and bows and arrows.

I'm Annie, I'm 18, and I write obsessively. I'm super excited because I've finished a first draft of a story!!! I don't think I've ever gotten that far. It's a retelling of Rumpelstiltskin, called 'Spinner of Secrets'. Now I'm working on a Hansel and Gretel retelling called 'Woodcutter's Daughter' for Camp NaNo, and I'm a quarter done my goal of 12,000 words. About half of my pinterest boards are for various writing projects, ranging from historical fiction to action/mystery. You can find me at: www.pinterest.com/LadyGiggles97/

Hello! I'm Bethany, I'm nearly one and twenty, and I wish I had time to write all the story ideas that swirl around in my head. I love to read, sew, crochet, bake, and have a certain fondness for British TV shows, and about anything else British. I also love music, mainly from the 50's and early 60's, and I play guitar. My time is mainly spent on being a bible school student, and the little home business my sister and I share. I need to find out how to fit more writing in there, but I do have a novelette published here thesnippetapp.com/web/writers/Bethany%20Canaan, and my sister and I share a blog at cleverbunnies.blogspot.com.

Hello everyone I know I'm being late but hi my name is Sarah. I'm 15 and I'm currently trying hard to finish the first draft of my novel. It's a mess. But hopefully I'll manage to clean it up. I love to read, sing, dance, talk and use British English. Obviously I love to write so I didn't put that in the list just now. I am the 2nd of 7 children and oh I'm also trying to write short stories when I'm stuck on my novel. My blog is thehappybookaholic.wordpress.com but it's kinda at a standstill because no one visits it (Hint hint)

Hullo to you all! I'm Tasha. Currently I am working on the first draft of my first story and writing several stories in my head. I enjoy music, the outdoors, reading, and spending time with my family. It's good to be here with all you fellow writers and I look forward to all the adventures we will go through on the writer's forum. Soli Deo Gloria!

Hey guys!!! I know I have already introduced myself, but that is not why I am here today. Today I am here to introduce you to the amazing, the wonderful, the magnificent, Miss Lothroniel!!!! Guys, meet my older sister! The one that I frequently mention. She has been writing for a good many years and I think that her writing is good!! She likes to write complicated things with lots of almost unpronounceable names. I don't usually have problems with pronouncing them, but others in our family do. She is currently writing a Sci-Fi and Fantasy series. But I will let her tell you about them. She likes Fantasy (she is the one who introduced me to Lord of the Rings and I am now as big a fan as she is), History, most everything Asian, and she does NOT like Hallmark movies and your average Christian Romances. She calls them 'Sugar Frosting'. I happen to disagree with her. She also likes horses. And she is number 2 of 12.
Warning: Do not call her Lothy. I don't know what she might do to you!!! Call her Ronie.
So Sis. How was that for an introduction?

Child, I do hope you don't usually use that many exclamation points in every post you make. Thank you kindly for that beautiful introduction, Dessi. It's nice to meet all of you girls!! Hope, I already know you a little bit from your blog and I've seen you around on Goodreads (I was a member of the beta team for Kendra E. Ardnek's Water Princess, Fire Prince). Like Erudessa said, complicated stories are my forte. Fantasy is my favorite genre to read and write, and Historical Fiction is my second favorite. Much of my writing inspiration comes from history. The reason I'm not fond of Hallmark movies or the average contemporary Christian Romance story is because the plots and characters are not typically as complex as I like to read or watch. Store-bought sugar frosting that's like fluff as opposed to real frosting made from scratch. DESSI! I'm not going to do anything to any of them if they call me that. You make me sound like an loose warhead. I look forward to becoming better acquainted with all of you!

Welcome, Lothroniel. Fantasy is my favorite genre to write, with futuristic fiction being my second favorite. I don't care for Romance either. A little bit as a subplot is fine, but I don't care for a story that is just about romance. So, what are you working on? And welcome everyone else too. I know I've been awful at welcoming people here...I'm not trying to choose one person above the rest, I just happen to be on and not busy.

Thank you, Hope!
I forgot to add that futuristic fiction ties with HiFi for my second favorite thing to write.
I"m currently working on two projects: a historical fantasy series about two Scarlet Pimpernel-type heroes set in an Asian and Arabian inspired land; and a science fantasy/futuristic series about a princess who doesn't want the throne, the men and women sworn to protect her and the nature of the oaths each have taken.

Not a loose war head. Nope. Just a small person, but like a cat that can jump out from underneath and go.......'Wah'!!!!!!!!
