The 2013 Introduction Thread

[nanogeekette]

I'm Kelley. 14 year old unschooled, hyper writer who's turning 15 in April. Whovian, who also is addicted to reading and writing DW fanfic. I am currently working on a horror novel and many, many fanfic projects.

Siana: forgetful admin, metal chick, goat dairy farmer and possible mad cat lady . I write sci-fi/fantasy with occasional horror elements.

Er... hi, everyone .

[marielaurent2223]

Hi i am marielaurent2223, but everyone on here can call me Marie.

I am a writer of many genres including Science Fiction Post Apocalyptic genres. I hope to make friends on here too.

[Agent Double Oh Zero]

Oh no, not again.

I've filled out so many of these that I think I could recite this in my sleep.

Metalhead. Owner of a badly behaved plot hydra that eats every single plot bunny I come up with, and grows a new head every time. Nerd. Whovian.

Hard core pantser. Has never finished anything ever.

Can I go bury myself in an existential abyss now?

Oh wait, I'm a writer. I already did that.

[Kwills]

Kwills. Casual fan of many -doms. Eager planner, good beginner, awful finisher. Crafty, linguaphile, avid reader and story-teller.

Not sure how active I'll be, dotting between this and other writers' forums, but it's good to see people here who are likely to understand when I get lost in the wordy-woods and need help from a fellow explorer to find the path again.

What's YeSpiMad?

[marielaurent2223]

Hi Kwills welcome back to Arrow of Eloquence YeSpiMad is short for Year of Spiraling Madness. I hope you have fun on here feel free to make a progress thread to keep track of your progress and sign up for challenges if you want to.

[nanogeekette]

Hello Kwills! Welcome to Arrow of Eloquence.

[Siana Blackwood]

Hi, Kwills . Like Marie said, YeSpiMad is the Year of Spiralling into Madness. If you start poking through the kinds of things we do... probably should have been "year of spiralling further than ever before into madness".

That was too long and didn't make a cool acronym. Anyway, welcome . Embrace the insanity!

Hey...

My name is Maelthra.

ThatNerdyWriter on Twitter.
C.R. Trumbo on NaNoWriMo.
Cheyenne or C.R. on my blog.

Call me whatever you wish. (I'm not going to cap the line... ah hell, yes I am.) Just don't call me late for dinner. (xD That was bad.)

I'm... weird. But then again, I'm a writer.

I found this through Jezzy's blog, (which I am catching up on) and was curious.

Uhm... I graduated in 2012, and if that doesn't give you enough to guess my age range... you need help.

I (obviously) write, read, game, obsess, mess, clean, sing (badly), dance (noIdont), meh... I hate lists like that. They're so... unorganized.

I'm a Whovian (loosely. I'm still catching up on the Tenth Doctor... only seen the new stuff.)

I'm a nerd. (I play Dungeons and Dragons and the Spin offs. I watched and loved the Lord of the Rings. (Also read them.) (Also, The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey? Seen it twice already. Bought the soundtrack)) Ooh-wee... lookit them parenthetical's!

I LOVE InvaderZIM. (I have two GIR bags, and a GIR hat (that my mother made for me)).

I'm into anime and manga, though not hardcore. I like Naruto and InuYasha, and Skip Beat, ooh, and Fushigi Yugi was an awesome one, and please don't get me started or give me anymore to read. (Oh yeah! Can't forget Fruits Basket that I STILL have never finished reading).

Uhm... I prefer the company of animals to people (Though Shhh, don't tell my boyfriend that.)

I can be slightly OCD, but you wouldn't know it looking at my house. Mostly my OCD has to do with words and lists, and little things like that. If I can find what I want when I want it my house is not a mess. (Though... my house is a mess because I tried to clean it earlier.)

Addicted to caffeine in all forms. (I literally cannot function without consuming caffeine within a certain amount of time. I get crippling migraines.) I am fully aware that I am dependent on caffeine, and I am okay with that.

I love kids movies. Wreck-it-Ralph is my most recent favorite. Along with Tangled. Ice Age (only the first one, couldn't care less about the others). Also classics like Aladdin, Mulan and Beauty and the Beast.

I can be a bit of a grammar nazi sometimes... but mostly I keep that in my head. I hate people who flame others like that online, so I don't do it often, but I may point out mistakes.

I would LOVE to exchange books/portions of books with people to beta read/edit/etc...

I suppose that's enough for now, isn't it?

Hello!

[Siana Blackwood]

Hi, Maelthra. Welcome to Arrow of Eloquence .

[Rabbit]

Maelthra, hi! Welcome! And welcome to Kwills, too!

I just realised, I never introduced myself to the new year's writers.

So, hi! I'm Jezzy. JezzyHatesJazz on Twitter and writing forums, sternbild-sally on tumblr. I also answer to Vincent.

I'm an Invader ZIM fan, too (I have the full series) as well as all kinds of TV shows, anime, manga... basically anything creative.

I like meeting new people (contrary to popular belief) so feel fee to find me somewhere and talk, if you want to.

[Agent Double Oh Zero]

Welcome, kwills and Maelthra! Maelyhra, I think I've seen you around on the NaNo forums as well.

Yes, Invader Zim is awesome! As are LOTR and Doctor Who! Anyway, I will restrict my TV/Film fangirling to that, since thisis intros.

So...welcome!

[Darkshines]

Welcome everyone! Great to have new people around. I never introduced myself either- I'm Darkshines. I love Lord of the Rings to death, love Invader Zim, spy novels, and (non-tween-romance) vampires, but I'm in new-media withdrawal for pretty much of the time due to school and work and various other things I signed on for that I should not have. I'm not on all the time but keep turning up, it's great for stress.

[Siana Blackwood]

Do we cause stress or alleviate it?

Also, am I the only one who hasn't seen Invader zim?
