Hi Rhiannon :) We are usually found in the Morning! thread at all hours of the day and just pitch in, we don't bite worst we'll do is poke a little fun.
Hey everyone and new arrivals from the previous months! Never too late to catch up, eh? :)
Hi Rhiannon and Matthew look forward to getting to know you.
Hi Rhiannon, glad to hear you are posting. The first one is always the hardest.Hi Matthew and welcome.
Hi Rhiannon and Matthew!I'm DeeDee, welcome to the fun!!!
Hi, my name is Suzy. I love to read thrillers/suspense/crime drama and mysteries. I have 2 dogs, and I read to them. This is my first post, so I'm trippin on my lips. Hello to everyone.
Hi all, What sort of dogs have you got Suzy?
Hi Suzy,I like much the same as you reading wise though since joining the forum I try out genre I would never have looked at before and have often been pleasantly surprised. I wish my puppy would stay still long enough to read to! LoL
Hi Suzy and welcome to the mad crowd. If I wear a dog suit, will you read me a book?
Hi Suzy!!!I'm DeeDee and I'm going to call you Quatro from now on!!! ;-P
If you're naming her after the rock chick, DD, that would be spelled Quattro.How come you know of Suzy Quattro anyway?
Hi Suzy - with your taste in books I'd like to recommend Andrew Barrett's 'Dead' trilogy. A Long Time Dead is the first. It was one of our Books of the Month last year. He has an extraordinary talent.
Welcome to the gang.
Are nicknames not meant to be shorter than the original name?Hi Susy!

Would it???
Okay, slight change Suzy, Quattro it is!!!
I have a fondness for rock G. Rob!!! Suzy Quattro, Meatloaf and Bonnie T. among others!!!
I think my ipod might be the only place where you find Abba, Suzy and Meat along with Enya, The Black Eyed Peas and Herman's Hermits!!!
Hi Suzy - I read to my cat! She doesn't care for it, as far as I can tell...

Do you have any Disney on there DD? If so I think you've hit every genre. My iPod is a little bit the same Nightwish - Flogging Molly - Girls Aloud - Andrea Bocelli - Disney (even park songs and songs from rides - listening to Splash Mountain right now and IT MAKES ME SO EXCITED CAUSE I'M GOING THERE IN MAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

I have Kath! It was my brother put me on to them
Hello newbies :)I had a big crush on Suzi Quatro back in the day (before some of you we're even thought of! God that makes me feel old)
With me around Tim, you'll always be a lad! :)
Ignite wrote: "With me around Tim, you'll always be a lad! :)"Or a daft lad, as she called me! Good job i took it the way it was intended!
Oh aye, he's a daft lad! At least I didn't call you a soft lad - I have been known to! It's a term of endearment. Honest. I'm I getting away with it?
Dave prefers Chrissy Hynde.Sez she's 'dirty' ;)
Jud (Disney Diva) wrote: "I have Kath! It was my brother put me on to them"i was pointed in their direction by the barman from the hotel we stayed in in Montenegro - I absolutely love Nemo!
I love Nightwish too, or at least right up to the time when the opera singing lead was replaced my a Swedish ABBA impersonator. Not been the same since.If you like Nightwish, have a look for Leaves Eyes.
Ignite wrote: " I'm I getting away with it?"Just about!

Ooo I will do (when i am home, don't think the office would appreciate me doing it at work!) thanks for the heads up :)
Hi Suzy, welcome to the group. I once read the complete works of A.A Milne and Wind in the Willows to my Labrador whilst she was recovering from surgery, you are in good company here.

Hello to all!I live in Otley, Wharfedale where I walk, garden and write. I walk with Charlie (he's a Springer Spaniel):
And he inspired me to write this book:
Yorkshire Dales: A Dog Walker's Guide
On those walks I saw lots of these:
And all those inspired me to write this:
Year of the Celt: Imbolc
But my favourite thing is gardening (the edible kind). So much so that I run this site: http://www.thevga.co.uk
I bought my partner a Kindle for xmas Dec 2010 and realised I wanted one for myself too. I had to wait a few months but I got one and of course I read even more now.
Look forward to meeting you all.
Rob
Hi Rob!Welcome to the group! I'm DeeDee!
Hi Rob and welcome. May I recommend that you start a meet the authors thread, as this thread gets swamped and replaced fairly regularly. We can also ask you all about your book there.

Please start by adding a post to our ‘Introduce Yourself ‘ thread. We are a nosey lot and would love to know who you are, what you like to read (and write), where you live and what you drink, eat, wear and grow.
This thread meanders off-topic quite a bit but as soon as a new member comes along our friendly but bonkers members soon appear to give you a warm welcome.
Of course you don’t have to introduce yourself if you prefer. You could head off to Meet The Authors,
check out our Monthly Book Selection, check out the New releases or play some Group Games.
The Author Zone is going great guns. This is not just for authors by any means but gives them a place where they can talk about publishing challenges and resources. It is a no-promo zone!
Even if you don’t feel ready to post something you are most welcome to sit back and watch the fun.
This forum is very lightly moderated (hardly noticeable), occasionally we will ask you to keep a particular thread on topic and we have a few simple rules about author threads and new releases.
There are plenty of ebook related threads, author related discussions including a debate on the merits of KDP Select and a place to share your musical taste.
If you have any problems you can post questions on the threads or visit our Agony Aunt and someone will come along and help. If you would rather not ask your question publicly by all means send a personal message (PM) to Patti or myself and we will try to help.
The plan is to clear the Introductions thread monthly to see if it makes things a bit easier for new members. Old Introductions can be found in the archive.
