Tam Linsey (tamlinsey) | 6 comments Hello, everyone! I was surfing groups and the covers posted for Nexus this month made me soooooo excited to join this group. They are exactly what I love to read. Which leads me in to my first "about me" point.

1. I'm a sucker for speculative fiction, from sci-fi to paranormal, especially ones with a little romance.

2. I not only live in Alaska, but I farm up here. Our garden is over 1000 sf, our orchard has 20+ trees, and we raised a steer last year, all on 1/2 acre.

3. I've recently become addicted to crocheting while talking books with my writing group (we call ourselves Critters and Knitters - lol!), and I can now officially create more than squares and circles. Sweaters and socks, here I come!

I look forward to getting to know everyone!

Dean MacAllister (deanmacallister) Hello!!
Umm....I am not a gemini, but I have driven one.
I hate people who say 'lol'.
I've never committed a crime I've been caught for.
I like shiny things and words.
I once ate a tarantula...but don't worry it was cooked. It's not like it was raw or anything...that would be gross.

Patricia Reding | 8 comments Hi all! I'm Patricia Reding. I have discovered the first thing about me as I have been contemplating what three things to share, and that is that I really don't like to share anything about myself. . . . Okay, that's done. On with the second and third things about me. Hmmmm. Second: I'm an avid reader and writer. Third: I've become addicted to Goodreads.

message 1122: by [deleted user] (new)

Hi all, my name is Pam. I'm new here and I enjoy reading most genres that have some sort of action/adventure in them.

I write high adrenaline action/adventure (under the pen name E.P. Scott) and am currently editing my debut novel Split Decisions - When Seconds Count (tag line - how many seconds would you take).

My avitar is one of my book covers that I've designed. Other can be seen on my profile. I am currently constructing a website (not up yet but the site's name is greatscottwriting.com)

I look forward to visiting all the threads and participating in discussions.

Cheers,
Pam

Megan Johnston (MeganSJohnston1) | 17 comments Hey everyone, it's great to be here. My name is Megan and I am an author here on Goodreads. I am currently writing the 2nd novel in my series, The Chimera Hunters, which is a young adult, paranormal romance.
I am married, run a family owned business, have four children and seven grandchildren. Between family, business and writing, and yes in that order, I have a very full and active schedule.
It's nice to stop, sit and write... It calms my spirit to say the least.

I just cannot get comfortable with a thumb stuck in a book trying to hold it open yet not breaking the spine. And I hate to say it, but I am getting older and the eyesight just isn't perfect anymore so I really like getting to choose my font size.


message 1137: by Judith (new)

Judith Post | 622 comments E-readers have their charms. I like both--my Kindle and my books. Feels good to go back and forth. Paper pages usually mean more serious for me--my favorite authors, series, etc.

Ike Nkenna | 5 comments Hey, Fellow Nexusers:

I'm back again at last. Phew! Took me a decade to arrive, but so what? I'm here now. That's what matters.

Feeling lazy to pick up my next book--"Tick-tock" by Dean Koontz.

Anybody have the cure for my ailment?

Midu Hadi | 6726 comments Mod
Hi Ike! Read what you feel like reading- that's my solution when I need to get out of a reading slump.

Sometimes I just pick up the most random book that I ordinarily wouldn't, but sounds interesting.

LOL, I actually don't have that much time, I used to be able to finish a book in 24 hours, but not anymore, no, not anymore.
