Hello!

I used to have many names, but you can call me Salem's Child for the sake of brevity. Plus, I don't even use most of my old names anymore, so yeah.

This year I rebooted both my musical and literary careers. Right now, I don't have much work online I want to share, but that'll change soon. I hope. Need to fight through writer's block first.

When it comes to books and stories, I prefer horror. Lovecraft, Stephen King and Poe are my favourite authors on the genre.

Anyway, I'm godawful at introducing myself, so I guess I'll just stop here. If you want to know anything else, feel free to ask.

See ya!

Hi salemschild, welcome to AW. Good luck on both your music and literary paths. What kind of music do you play?

I'm a kindred soul when it comes to favorites to read. Loved King's 'Salem's Lot and all his other novels.

I'm writing mysteries, but the genre could change after the current work-in-progress.

:welcome:, Salem (Oregon's capital twenty-some miles north). :greenie

Hello, SC! Welcome to AW. I'm new here as well, and I, too, struggle with writer's block. Therefore, I don't have much writing to share. Maybe we both can change that in the future!

The kind of music I make changed over the years, but now I'm back to my roots and making lo-fi folk music.

Thanks for the well wishes, everyone. I really appreciate it.

hi there salem's child
heck im so old i remember when salem's lot came out and the tv movie with David Soul of Starsky and Hutch
im very new here myself, best wishes...
i think the best way to stop writiers block is to brainstorm a whole bunch of 1 to 2 sentence ideas, about concepts or individual scenes
like two or three pages worth. then clump stuff together from that list and come up with some ideas to explore.

any way
welcom to the board... quite little town of salem's lot.
