Newbies-Introduce yourself here!

[Tak-Jak]

sad I try....

I am just not much of a writer anymore. I scribble. But it never amounts.  

[Serenity Reed]

Aww, Tak. sad  

[Culex Xeluc]

Hmm. I guess I never wrote an introduction.

Well, I'm Culex. 19, going to be a sophomore in college, doing that seems pretty much the exact opposite of writing: math, of the pure kind. I'm actually obsessed with math. I love it.It'd be my guilty pleasure if I felt guilty about it. I feel like it is the most beautiful artform in the world. As to what I'm actually gonna do with it, not sure. The thoughts of selling my soul to Wall St. are always there, but who knows? For the time being, math is my only preoccupation.

I'm Agnostic. I can't say where I'm happy about it. My last girlfriend kinda broke up because of it. I like to argue a lot, almost in a mathematical sense.

So why do I write? I dunno. It's enjoyable. I don't get much practice or anything, hence why its looks shitty or angst-ridden at times (works from my early teenage years have the typical teenage angst, as well as sucking in general). However, I mostly write whenever I get inspiration and motivation. Without the two, I am nothing as far as writing goes.

Hmm that was long. But yeah. I'll read stuff for you guys. I'm no expert in anything involving literature, but I'll give advice regardless.  

[Serenity Reed]

Welcome, welcome. heart
Your work thus far hasn't been TOO angsty--I mean, no pits of darkness and no mention of blood or despair--so I wouldn't say it's that bad. XD  

[Nait Phoenix]

Call me Blaze! My real name is a mystery, but I go by the alias "Nait Phoenix" until I figure out who I really am.

I'm 20, and I love to write stories of great heroes and evil villains. I'm also a songwriter, but so far only on a more direct approach and less metaphoric like most songwriters, if that makes sense. I've continually tried to expand my hero story of "Nait" for years, but I haven't gone past character analysis and world description yet, but I'm working on it more in-depth than I have for the past six years.

Found badly burned and with a heavy case of amnesia, he does not know his real name, but has haphazardly agreed to become a soldier of the SS-23 under the alias of Nait Phoenix or Blaze 'for friends'. Nait has a strange mark on his back in the shape of a phoenix and has no recollection of where it came from. He is a skilled swordsman, and has strange fire powers that are triggered through emotion. It’s unknown how or when he acquired these powers, but he believes that the more he fights, the more he’ll know about his past and his future…

Almost done, but still working...

I plan to be a professional songwriter & have story writing as a hobby on the side. I might even sing a little.

Interesting. Welcome to the guild! =3

Hey newbie! smile Your stuff sounds interesting - try not to be scared off by the strangeness of some of us.  

[[Sonya--McCaw]]

Hey, there. I'm Sonya, and I'm 16-soon-to-be-17.
Some random facts:
-I like Mint Chocolate Chip ice cream
-I started writing when I was in 6th grade ( but I've been into art since I was 3 )
-I'm currently working on a series of books, 6 total. All will be novel length, and they will later be used as the manuscripts for my comic ( the story itself is totally planned out already...just none of it is written down. At all xD )
-Said novels are not going well because I lack any organizational skills, and the writing coach/teacher that was helping me quit showing up.
-I don't care if you call me a girl or a guy
-I write mostly long stories, but since most of those go unfinished, I've been working on short stories. I also write fanfiction.
-I enjoy horror genres most, and pretty much all of my work has a macabre element of some sort in it.

Eh, I think that's good for now.

Welcome Sonya!
I thought for a moment you were me until the end. XD Except my comic dream may never come true because I'm still struggling with art. emo

Thanks~ You could always team up with an artist - we're friendly folk ( unless we're drawing werewolves or something. Then you might wanna wait 'til we're out of that headspace... ).

And I've been working on the story as long as I've been drawing, so that might have influenced it a bit 3nodding

Same. I was thinking of teaming with someone, but I don't know how I'd pay them--and I'm hoping I can get good enough to do it all myself one day. =3

Ah, I see. What style would you like to draw it in?

(( sidenote/question: Fanfiction is okay here, right? ))  

[Serenity Reed]

I want animesque combined with fifties fun. XD I'm sure I'll manage...

As for fanfiction, I honestly don't know. I've never seen any posted.  

[oO_Genesis_Blackwood_Oo]

My name is unimportant. I know who I am and I don't need a name telling me. But if you must call me something, call me Genesis.

My writing has always had a certain dramatic and horrific tendency, though not in my newest story. I'm currently working on a novel with a certain group called Akatsuki, if you know who they are, then congrats to you. In it are my 3 OC's, Kiomata, Maika, and Emi.

I don't really write long stories because I'm not the kind of person who drags things out like that.

Also, sometimes I overdose on sugar. Like yesterday, I had 2 Twix packs, a giant Reeses PB cup, two packs of M&Ms and a thing of Starburst. BY MYSELF.

Welcome to the guild, Genesis. =3
