I've been a bit of a ~~stalker~~ lurker for a while here, so thought I'd finally introduce myself. *Waves*

When I was younger (about 13-14) I read books such as Wuthering Heights and sneaked Jackie Collins novels belonging to my mum.

I'm now 22 and a huge fan of YA novels, which is a good indicator for my personality - I like to do things backwards!

Welcome to AW. Hope you enjoy your stay with us.
How do you like your popcorn?

If you go to the bottom of the page to the ‘forum jump’ you can scroll down and find all the areas of this place. Most of the SYW areas require the password of ….vista. A word to the wise, (50 posts), it would be a good idea to participate first in helping others before you think about posting your own work. After you have been around here for awhile, then post something of your own for help. Good luck.

Hi Teacake, I'm new too although, like you I've been lurking for a while.

Welcome! I used to read adult books as a teen, now I read YA as an adult. Weird, right? Glad to find someone else with the same quirk.

AderuMoro · Apr 12, 2011

Awesome! I'm also going through somewhat of a regression period, haha. I think it has to do with all the academic required reading in high school. I'm twenty-one, myself, and I've just joined the other day. Welcome

Hi, teacake!

I'm new as well. I also love reading YA fiction! I tutor middle schoolers, so I need to have a large array of recs on hand to keep them reading. The attention span of the 21st century tween is not the longest. Ha, ha.

Hope to be seeing you around here,
Anna
