Hey guys,

I'm a longtime lurker, but just got around to signing up for the forums a few days ago. I'm a freelance writer by day (writing about tech and graphic novels for different publications) and a YA novelist by night. I've published a few non-YA short stories, and I'm currently querying a YA fantasy novel (not the first one I've written, but the first one I felt confident enough to send out in the world). I already love the Absolute Write community and I'm super excited to get to know you crazy kids better!

Hi Artemis! I'm another newbie who writes YA. I tend to lean more toward realism in my writing, but I love reading YA fantasy. :)
