Introduce Yourself

I'm Lauren, and I live in North Jersey. My two loves are my music and my books. And my friends! <3
I love fantasy and scifi, Harry Potter is my favorite. I want to write a really long epic book, but I need a good idea first.


Thanks for your answer. I'm happy to hear you want to write a book. It's a lot of hard work, but alot of fun too.
I write mostly historical, but I did write one fantasy, Dust and Moonlight. I would be happy to answer any of your questions as you begin this journey. Tell me what kind of epic you have in mind.
The best thing to do is read every thing you can about fantasy and sci-fi and see what made the book work. Study it, chapter by chapter and look at how the author constructed her/his characters and plot.
Well, you can get a hold of me if you have any more questions. Nice to talk to you.

Idk, my favorite books are like Lord of the Rings, Eragon, Harry Potter, stuff that's in another world basically. But it's hard to think of an entire world.


Thanks. :)
The Eragon movie though, it changed a lot from the book. Like his palm wasn't even silver.

I write books related to breathing, zen yoga and spirituality.
I also love writing fantasy and have written a number of short stories and am halfway through an epic novel.
I've studied martial arts for nearly 25 years and occasionally perform a Zen Sword Dance.
that's about it for now.

It does sound beautiful. I have always heard that Oregon is lovely. To be able to look at mountains every day is great. And waterfalls == you are lucky.

Best Keta

Though I love Twilight, really it all started reading Harry Potter, all the way back in 1st grade. :) I absolutely love Harry Potter.

That was beastly. :)

and sure I'll check out the website. (BTW i read twilight and it was awesome but, I've been reading pretty much since I was born lol)

I'm going to have to use the name "Ruby' as a character in one of my books. Kewl name!
Alaska? That sounds beautiful too. I live in the Midwest and it's been very cold here in the last several months. Now it's starting to warm up. We don't have mountains, but we have thousands of lakes and streams.
SO nice to meet you.

lol Hill, yeah its awesome, i love how even our "biggest" cities are small and everything is spread out. ex: i live in a tiny, tiny, town that is only 90 miles from Canada (yikes! lol) and the closest city to me is a 4-5 hr drive, (aka 200 miles). basically im used to being in a car, for a long, long time lol



the summers are sooo awesome tho. it can up to +80 its soooo nice lol

I'm Keta Diablo and I live in the Midwest portion of the US. I'm glad someone started this group -- good idea.
Can everyone introduce themselves and tell us a little about you? Or have you already done that somewhere and I missed it.
I'm a writer of erotica for multi-publishing houses. When I'm not writing, I love to read and garden. I see someone else on here loves animals. I do too and rescued Emma LaPounce from the local shelter last year hours before they were going to put her down. She's very happy in her new home and has been crowned "Queen of the Abode". She loves to lay by my computer mouse while I write. Maybe she takes the word "mouse" literally!
Have a wonderful weekend and I'll be back soon to talk to you. In the meantime, please drop by my web site and enter my contest to win free books. I hold a drawing every month.
Namaste, Keta Diablo
