4) You'll do great!
5) I am a jogger... Lol




Lauren, maybe you can email them instead. I have cousins in England and we email once or twice a month. Or you can use chat or Skype.


2. I love all animals, but most especially dogs.
3. I work in marketing/advertising and sometimes I make up or combine words/sayings... so, don't be surprised :)
4. I am obsessed with electronics, especially video games consoles.
5. I'm tired of having no one to talk to about the books I read!

Hey Amber. Well now you have us to talk about your books with, so talk away!

2. I love sports. Playing and watching. Can't seem to get enough of them
3. My boyfriend is currently deployed, but he will be back in less then two months. I'm excited, nervous and scared of his eventual return.
4. I used to use reading as an escape from people who annoyed me or that I didn't like.
5. I love technology and gadgets. Especially the nook, which I just bought a month ago and am absolutely in love with it.

2] I'm a big tease/flirt, hence the name Sizzlin Miss, hehe. Being friendly has always been my nature, so don't take offense if I say something being playful.Its just me.
3] I am always either reading [my e-books or paperback:] or writing or chatting. My outside the house activities are exercising and socializing. I find comfort in reading so I tend to stay home and read as opposed to going out to party or something.
4] Im single and people are shocked, lol. My big personality draws a lot of attn. I am picky tho.
5]I love my family and that's rare I guess.I love being with my sisters, shopping, hanging out, talking. I always say 'Love u' whenever they leave the house or we hang up. Imma big softie when it comes to my family.

I think that's a good thing. :) Nice to have you back. Hope you had a great vacation.

Also, I think being picky has saved me from the crap my girlfriends complain abt with their current b/fs, lol.

2. I am completely addicted to reading.
3. I am single and still a virgin because I have yet to meet my knight in shining armor and according to my mother have my standards set to high.
4. I rock out in my car singing at the top of my lungs and sometimes get some strange looks. I think it really helps me stay off my lead foot.
5. I live in the middle of redneck country and constantly cringe at the way people butcher the english language.

Lacy, Welcome. You'll fit right in with the rest of us. Maybe we should have started the introductions off with...Hello, my name is fill in the blank and I am *pause for dramatic effect* a Book-a-holic and proud of it. lol

I took like to rock out in a car, especially on long road trips..

@Lacy my Mom raised me to value myself and always help others in need. SO good for you =D
@Lisarenee After spending time in other areas I see now San Diego is worth every penny u spend on rent! Hehe.

2. I had twins at 18yrs old.
3. I now have a 3rd child.
4. I still don't know "what i want to be when i grow up!"
5. I have written a novel (currently editing it), which has a sequel in progress too, but i'm undecided on whether to self publish online via smashwords or such like, or look for a proper publisher!

I have a Kindle, which i love.. but I still have to buy books sometimes because I just love that book smell.. Plus I'm in Australia and not all the books I read are available here in Ebook form.
Enjoy your Nook.. (If the Nook was available here, I would of bought that instead of the kindle, I believe you can do more with it.)

Nice to have you Amie! Yes I do believe they say that :) Good luck with your novel


^ I like this Heather

1. I own 254 books, that I am currently working my way through, even though I buy new ones so often I cant't keep up in reading :)
2. I live in Denmark, and I can't seem to find friends with the same interests as me other places than the internet.
3. I am a Harry Potter nut, and have been for 10 years now - I plan on owning a copy of Philosopher's Stone in every single language (so far I'm on English, German, Swedish, Spanish and Danish). It's alright to call me a nerd to my face :)
4. My big dream is to take a year off from everything, and spend a week in every state in America.
5. I have 25 cousins, and I'm the oldest one under the age of 30... (I'm 18)

1. I have 2 dogs Helia (part beagle/shihtzu) and Cricket (papillion) I mention them because they are very dear to me, we spend lots of time hanging out and going place together... and they curl up by when I read.
2. I have 3 shelves over flowing with books- I'd say i have well over 1000... I recently bought a Nook (that I love) so now I have several ebooks too! Oh I should say I haven't read all of them but will eventually.
3. I love the rain
4. Cooking/baking I do this a lot too- might be lame but I want people to say Oh I know her she always makes good pies and has some if you stop by for coffee.
5. yea you'll recognize me because I usually have a black skirt and a cute tshirt and a pair of thong birks on (rain, snow or shine)(any activity).
Hello Lea- I know what you mean about finding only friends on the internet with the same interest...

Aimee, Twins? Are they identical? It always sounded like fun to have twins, but a lot of work as well.
Lea, That's a neat idea to own a book in every language it's been printed in. Just out of curiosity how many of those languages can your read?
Alexis, Another Cook. We need to trade recipes. :)
Elise, I can still remember the first time I flew. I made the lady next to me nervous and she was a frequent flier. I didn't think I'd be that way until I sat down in the seat. Thankfully, that was the only time I ever got nervous about a flight.

Aimee, I'd be very interested in how the publishing goes. I'm currently writing a book with a friend (only on the first draft) and we're going to have a huge learning curve when it comes to the publishing area.
Lea, I know how you feel. I have two friends with similar interests that live "close" to me (each are an hour away by car), everyone else is spread across the country and world.
Hello to everyone else that I may have missed (can be difficult to keep up when playing at work).

Lisarnee: I speak Danish and English fluently (or close to), I speak a little German, I understand Sweedish beacause It's so close to Danish (I'm getting a book in Norwegan as well) and I'm currently learning to speak Spanish, and I figured I would help me - a win-win situation, you see :)
Sans: Yea, my only problem is that I'm not good at taking the time to get to know someone over the internet. I'm doing some progress, though :P

Alexis, thank you for making me hungry for pie! Man, I could kill for some. Black skirt eh? I bet you have definitely pull it off. I have one cat, Mathilda a Siamese Snowshoe who completely reflects her mistress ... a brat!

Thank you.

Hi Heather, thank you for the welcome.

Yes, identical twin boys. It's hard work but it made my youngest seem very easy to cope with on his own. :)
