Geday from New Zealand!

Hi all! I'm a closet writer from down-under making an appearance here for the first time. I've been writing for many years in my limited spare time, and decided to bite the bullet 18 months ago and actually COMPLETE my novel. It is presently with a not-too-close friend who will give me honest feed back about it, and is very nearly finished.

I've been slowly coming out of the closet over these months as well, telling people that I am a writer, putting it on forms etc... Makes it seem more real. Like most people here, I want to be a published author. Time will tell.

This site looks great, and I'm looking forward to meeting fellow writing enthusiasts!

Cheers, meadows

Thanks for the welcomes! Nice to be here. Pretty quick replies too!

Kai ora, Issac! How many of us kiwis are there here? Mostly US folk, isnt it?

Thanks for the welcome!

Greetings Rupert! Thought I might find you lurking around here! I made it here after a bit of work. Looks like a fun site.

G'day is the way some write it too. Us kiwis get confused with the Aussies a bit, though we are far from each other. The 'Geday' is pretty universal!

Thanks for the welcome Regdog and Mumut! Look forward to seeing you around. I've had a wee peek at SYW and there's some good stuff there. Might post a little bit myself and try a crit or two.

Cheers!

Thanks for every one's kind welcomes! I feel at home here already.

As for popcorn, I like it as it comes! Movie popcorn is pretty good. Had some yesterday when I went to see Transformers with my daughter. What a fantastic movie it was too! Such a moving story line with such in depth characters and plenty of humour and compassion. Sorry...- I'm chocking...just a minute...*!@*#!! ...whew, that's better. Yeah, well, sorry I lied about the movie...

Cheers, meadows
