I'm rubbish at intro posts but I've been posting and replying enough that not introducing myself seemed a bit rude.

I'm a thirty year old with a day job and a pesky desire to write (seriously, I would have so much free time and sanity if I could just shut off the whole right side of my brain). I recently finished revising and cleaning up my first book and am planning on querying at the end of January. I've also recently started work on a YA urban fantasy novel.

Favorite books: HHGTTG, Practical Magic, Someplace to be Flying, Microserfs, Good Omens, Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason, Circle of Friends, In Her Shoes

Likes: Doctor Who, animal crackers, The Kronos Quartet, Gidget, Sarah Harmer, pre-madness Star Wars, complaining about George Lucas

Somewhere in my mind... it echoes in here ...
Hello, Kathleen, and welcome to AW, a good place to help those 'pesky desires' find some outlet. There's much to discover here; it's endless I've come to find out. Have fun and let those words flow. :)

Greetings and welcome to the watercooler :welcome:

Have you stopped by the terrific Newbie Question of the Day thread yet?Pop in and have a go at answering a few of the really easy questions (the link is in the sig line below). They are easy. Yep, they are. And it's so much fun. :D

We also have a brand new Super-Dooper Newbie 'Traditional Irish Pub' thread where you can come and relax, have a drink and practice posting whilst chatting to other newbies and not so new newbies :D .

Oh, and do you like double choc-chip cookies?
