My name is Claire. I'm new around here, and I would very much like to meet some people. Care to introduce yourself? :)

Hi Claire. I'm Patrick. It's awesome to meet you.

I just self-published my first novel, a YA drama. Now comes the hard part - getting people to read it!

What kind of writing do you do?

Hey, Claire! Tell us more about yourself so we can get to know you too? :)

I just popped over to your profile and see you write Sci-Fi. Who's your favorite sci-fi writer? And you're in college, what year? what's your major, if you have one?

Hi Patrick! Congrats on your publication! What's the name of your book? I'd like to check it out!

I'm currently writing a series of YA sci-fi books :)

Nice to meet you!

I love the classics (Asimov, Clarke, Heinlin etc). They really got me hooked on the genre. But I also have a soft spot for Orson Scott Card's work. :)

I'm actually in my second year as a Dance major! Complete opposite side of the artistic spectrum from writing fiction, but I love it!

A dance major! How awesome. I was a theatre major once upon a time which is not really the opposite of writing fiction, but is perhaps the opposite of being a dance major. We were all really awkward and you folks are always super poised.

My dad loves sci-fi and he devoured Asimov. I've only read a bit of his work but what a writer!

Nice to meet you!

The name of my book is Joshua's Island. You can find links to it in my signature.

YA sci-fi? My two favorite genres all mashed up! I must hear more!
