Greetings from England!

Alexandra_Writes · Aug 17, 2013

Hello everyone!

I'm new to this website. Well, I've browsed before, but never actually created an account...

I've only been writing seriously for this past year - as much as I can with a demanding day job, and I'm revising a m/m regency romance. I haven't told many people in my life that I spend my spare time writing - perhaps that comes with my genre, and I'm looking forward to meeting other writers.

All the best,

Alexandra

Take some time and read the Newbie Guide and the Stickies found
at the top of Forum pages. They are your best guide to learning about
Absolute Write.

Please read the FAQ about posting photos.

In fact we have lots of brilliant FAQs check them out.

You've definitely come to the right place then.

Greetings and welcome to the watercooler :welcome:

Take a wander around the various forums, there's lots to see and lots to learn, and even some fun threads too. Come along and pop on over to the Traditional Irish Pub (at the top of the Newbie forum) and say hi, there's plenty of friendly faces that you can chat with and lots of banter. There's also the Question of the Day threads at the top of the Newbie forum where you can answer random questions.

Don't forget to read the newbie guide, and if you want to know what all the buttons mean check out this thread.

Hello Alexandra! I love England. At least I'm sure I would if I'd ever been there. I blame my parents. And there's no need to tell anyone I suppose. Just wait to see the shock on their faces when they pick up a book and see your name on the front cover.

Hi, Alexandra! Everything that I love comes from England: Harry Potter, Doctor Who, Wuthering Heights, Cadbury chocolate bars, and many, many more things!

I hope you like it here!

Hi Alexandria,

Welcome! Good luck. If your not ready to tell many people in real life you're writing, this is a good place to come for support
