I just wanted to introduce myself! I'm completely new to the world of message boards, but I was referred here by a friend who said it was an excellent resource for writers so I'm taking the plunge! I recently graduated with a liberal arts degree so job prospects haven't been too hot...which is a bummer but since I only have a part-time job I realized it'd be a great time to start writing in earnest! I've been jotting down ideas here and there for years so I figured it's about time I really get down to it. I'm an equal opportunity reader who used to stick strictly to classics, but has since branched out. Some of my favorites are Atonement, The Mayor of Casterbridge, The Great Gatsby, The Three Musketeers, Harry Potter, The Lord of the Rings, The Secret Garden, The Scarlet Pimpernel, To Kill a Mockingbird, and Rebecca, as well as anything by Jane Austen (Pride and Prejudice is probably my all-time favorite.) I also have a serious weakness for Agatha Christie and murder mysteries.
As for my writing, it's all over the board too, and I've yet to fully find my voice or direction. But hey, that's the fun of writing, right?
