Hi everyone

Katrinioni · Oct 27, 2011

Hi, I'm Kat. The name 'Katrinioni' is just a teacher's mispronunciation of my full name and it just stuck with me. I love reading! It's my favourite thing to do; sometimes I feel more at home with books than people. I write lots of different things including poetry, YA fiction and my latest 'project' books for younger children. I haven't got anything published (yet!) but it has always been a dream of mine just to see my name on the cover of a good book.
It's great to finally find a forum of many like-minded people and I can't wait to start looking around!

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. After you post 50 posts you can use the SYW areas to get help there. The password for some of the areas is…..vista. A word to the wise, 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.

Thanks everyone for the advice, welcomes etc. I've loved everything that I have seen so far and the people on the forum all seem to be very talented and kind.

Hi and Welcome. I'm curious how a teacher could mispronounce your name as "Katrinioni" sounds pretty funny if I actually heard it.

CDancourt · Oct 27, 2011

Hi Kat
I can't pronounce your full name, but it's nice meeting you

Katrinioni · Oct 27, 2011

Yeah my whole name is Katriona (not pronounced Katrina) and it was during an assembly and the teacher didn't know me and called me 'Katrinioni' much to my humiliation!

OMG, Katrinioni? Yikes. Perhaps, you found your new pen name. Anyways, welcome to AW, Kat!

Haha, that's pretty funny. I had a similar experience with my own name. It was my Spanish teacher and she pronounced my name "Funnay" stressing the second syllable. So I feel your humiliation!
