[April]

I think the second version sounds better I like the lasting ring of La Quête de l'Equilibre as it resonates in your head :D Best of luck either way

[[deleted user]]

Thanks! I might need some help as English is not my mother tongue, so maybe some people in this group will be kind enough to correct me :)

[April]

Most definitely. If you need help just let us know I'd be delighted to help and I'm sure everyone else would as well. Best of luck SAndrine

[Quanisha]

Hi! (late) I'm Quanisha. Thanks for the invite. I love connecting with other writers. I'm currently writing a Fantasy novella called The Foretold. I'm having fun writing it and still getting new ideas for different series that are in a completely different genre. So I like to bounce around a lot, whichever the wind blows.

[April]

Hi Quanisha I wish you luck and joy with your novella :D

Thanks :) Good luck with your novel. I love reading Urban Fantasy it's my favorite. Along with Paranormal

[April]

Thank you :D

[[deleted user]]

Thanks, likewise!

[Ann]

@Quanisha Hello! Welcome aboard :3 I also like writing in all genres, I think variety in writing can help mix all the best bits together in your novels :3

@Sandy, don't ever hesitate to ask for help :3

[Carl]

Bisky: thanks for seeing up this chat room. it's great.

[Ann]

No problem :3 I'm sorting the topics into folders tonight so its easier for people to post topics themselves :3

[Ann]

Hope I didn't confuse everyone :x Its just in folders now for books and writing. I won't be upset if you post in 'wrong' folders I might just shuffle them about abit :p

just main difference is off topic or not really :3

Hi, thanks for the invite. I feel I'm part of some secret group (On a not so secret website) haha.
I'm from Australia. I'm roughly 20,000 words into my first novel 'Paper Plane'. It's about a young man (falsely) accused of rape and his inability to let women get close to him. I'm loving the experience of writing a first novel. Learn so much about myself and the craft! I'm enrolled at Macquarie University studying a Bachelor of Arts majoring in Media.

Thanks! :D

[Ann]

Hi Jake! Welcome aboard :D Its bisky's secret group of awesomeness :P Because all the memembers are awesome ^^

That sounds like an emotionally hard write! Best of luck with it :3

[J.M.]

Wow Bisky! This blew up a bit! Great work! I *love* following what you're up to! Partially because, as intimated on Twitter, we are in fact the same person. I assume that you are my mild-mannered alter ego who no one suspects of villainy.

My name is JM Guillen. I spend most of my time trying to enslave western civilization and experimenting with armies of drones and cloned dinosaurs. My super-villain name is "The Pen-Dragon".

I also tend to write a bit.

My work is published through Irrational Worlds, an evil publishing conglomerate based on the Daedalus space station. Currently it consists of four novellas. These range from:

A fantasy romance, about a priestess of passion and desire...
to
A steampunk detective story, with more than a dash of suspense...
to
A science fiction/spy romp battling against cthulian horror...
to
A modern faerie tale about the embodiment of Autumn, hunting the shadows of our world...


My work is all interconnected, and the stories contain strands of each other. I'll admit that it's more than a little bit of a game for me, and I try and make it fun WHILE enslaving the masses. I am currently working on the steampunk/detective story, and expanding it into a series.

An evil series. With a dark and terrible purpose.

Just so everyone knows, I am on the hunt for books to review. I am specifically requesting .Mobis from goodreads authors for this nefarious task. You should be aware, however, that as a super-villain, my reviews have a bit of a slant.

If you'd like a review, message me up. I'll happily give you one.*


*Secret catch

[April]

Jake good luck with your novel, sounds like a heartbreaking book I already feel for your young man.

[G.G.]

Hello! Thank you Bisky for the invite! :)

I am writing a PN/Sci-fi series called The Legacy.
I love to read and review but I wished days had more than 24 hours!

[David]

Guess I should have done this a while back. I'm David. I've written and posted a few short stories and have completed my first novel "The River Styx" which is looking for representation from a literary agent. For the curious, "The River Styx" is a mythological novel set towards a YA audience in which a girl, Hope, travels aboard a ship of the damned across the Greek Underworld.

[Sarah]

Cool Willow... I didn't know what your book was about but it sounds great. Love dystopian society books!

[Christy]

Thanks for the invite and Hi to everyone! I have published 2 books so far, Crimson Tears and 5 Doors. Both are fantasy novels with a psychological twist. I am currently working on my 3rd which was the 1st I wrote. Needs a lot of work!!!
Would love to hear from other authors about their experiences etc

[Dia]

I write short stories and poetry that I post online. I write more in the fantasy genre, but I've been trying out urban fiction and may write more scifi in the future. =) I am working on a dystopian novel, but I'm taking my time with it and I don't know when I'll be finished.

[Lorraine]

Writer/Editor/Blogger/Teacher at Lorraine Reguly's Life. Trying to get a book published. Writing more in different genres. Working on memoirs. Loves mysteries and reading. And chocolate and pizza! Still getting used to social media. Have had laptop for eight months. Sigh.

[Ann]

Hi everyone! :D Welcome aboard :3 I hope you like the group.

[Anna]

Greetings:

It's always so exciting to connect with other writers. I am very pleased to be a part of this group, and to get to know you all! :)

I'm currently writing a Post-Apocalyptic/Dystopian SciFi for the YA genre. To put it frankly, it's radical, and likely the BEST book idea I've ever had.

Whenever I'm not writing, I'm reading. And whenever I'm not doing either of the aforementioned, I'm EDITING. I have a degree in English (and Psychology, but that's another story), with an emphasis on Grammar.

Writing is quite literally all that I'm good at -- so, let's hope I can pull through and get something published! :)

[Ann]

Woo yeah that sounds good :] Welcome aboard :3

[Kelli]

Hi everyone! I've been reading all of your introductions, but haven't introduced myself yet. My name is Kelli. I'm a new writer. I have the first draft of a science fiction novel done and am working on my first revision now. I'm also outlining a fantasy novel that I will write during NaNoWriMo this year (hopefully). I feel like a toddler just learning to walk in the writing world - I have a lot to learn. I arrived a little late to the game, but I'm having a GREAT time figuring things out and letting my imagination run wild!

Thank you, Bisky, for starting this group. I look forward to getting to know each of you.

[April]

Hey Kelli, its never to late its always the right time to start your dreams. Good luck on your novels :D

[Ann]

You're very welcome and thank you for joining. Its so exciting you are just starting! I wish you the best of luck and let me know if you need help with anything :D


(Im gonna be on goodreads alot tonight as I'm having a troll wave on twitter :'( )

[Robert]

Thanks for inviting me!

I'm Robert James. I'm a teacher and a writer (WHO Won?!? An Irreverent Look at the Oscars -- v. 1: 1927-1943 and v. 2: 1944-1952 available now, v. 3 almost done).

I've also done considerable work on science fiction, particularly Robert Heinlein.

As for reading, these days it's mostly research, but I love literary works, as well as the fun stuff (SF, Fantasy). I read a lot of history (I teach AP US and World History).

Looking forward to getting involved in some of the discussions here :)

[Ann]

Nice! :D Welcome aboard! :]

[Christopher]

Hello All~

It's Chris Winterberg. I enjoy writing speculative fiction. I appreciate twists and ambiguous in endings. In my works, people sometimes get killed, or do they?

[J]

Hi, Chris! Welcome!

I recently learned the term speculative fiction, and I wonder if that fits my writing? Ambiguity is great--especially in creepy stories. :3

[Ann]

I didn't know it until recently either xD welcome welcome :]

[Samuel]

Hello,
I am Samuel...Samuel S. B. At the moment I am writing The Broken Throne: Fire and Blood. It is number two of a planned series called The Broken Throne.

It is nice to meet all of you and I hope to enjoy the love of books and writing

[Ann]

Welcome Samuel I hope you enjoy your stay :]

[Samuel]

Bisky wrote: "Welcome Samuel I hope you enjoy your stay :]"

[Ann]

Yeah I know, one of the reasons I wanted to create one so bad! :D Everyone here is so awesome :3

[Nicole]

I barely have any friends on here so if someone wants to be pals, send me a request! :) I'm super cool, just ask me and I'll tell ya!!

[April]

Hi Nicole I've just sent you a friends request :D

[Ann]

^^ I like that everyones becoming friends!

[Julia]

Hello, everyone! And thanks for the invite, Bisky. :)
I... don't actually have anything big right now. Two draft-zero Nanowrimo novels that I have yet to get back to, a bunch of fanfic (some finished, most ongoing sandboxy-type things), endless ramblings and snippets and threads...
I've not written for a while either. But even if my dream of making a career out of it must be gently recalabrated, I can't imagine I'll ever stop completely. It's too much fun.

[Ann]

hi Julia :D

I think writing for yourself is most important, you never know when inspiration to write something big might suddenly strike! Welcome to the group :3

[Lorna]

Hi, I am Lorna and I only write reviews for a blog web site(and sometimes Amazon and Good Reads) but I love it. My favorite books are usually paranormal romance,romance,young adult,romantic suspense and some thrillers. I read a lot of indie books too.If you need or want more GR friends,please friend me.

[Ann]

Nice! There are afew paranormal romance writers here (me also :p) I hope you enjoy the group :3

[Lorna]

Thanks Bisky, I am enjoying it!

[Ann]

Great! :D Don't hesitate to ask me if you have any questions :3

[Lorna]

I will thanks :)

[Ann]

[Kara]

Hey, everyone, I'm Kara! I mainly write novels with fantasy elements, though I have written some other genres before. ^_^

[Ann]

Awesome! :D Welcome aboard! :3
