Hello,

Just introducing myself. I took a break from writing over the last few years to get into and then through grad school. Now that I'm approaching my final semester, I'm itching to write again. And I've found that I miss talking to other writers. My current project is a novella, though I'm still in the plotting stages. Genre-wise I enjoying writing in crime, scifi and urban fantasy, though most of what I read is the former.

I look forward to talking with you all!

Welcome to the Bransforums! This is a great place for hanging out with other writers. Best thing to do is get right in there and start posting, which I've noticed you have done. So, good for you! I look forward to getting to know you better.

Hi - I'm Judy - from just outside Toronto, Canada. I'm currently working on a memoir - that I've been struggling with for a few years. I'd love to find a writing partner to critique it with. The content's been good for awhile - but I think I could drive the style up a notch.
I just finished a YA historical novel - it's with a publisher and I'm awaiting the outcome.

Happy writing everyone! And Happy New Year!
Judy

Hello everybody.

My name is TonyB. I've heard a lot about the forum from people that I really respect and am hoping to learn a lot and make a lot of connections.

I mostly write short fiction that is hard hitting and intense. Some of my favorite books are Lord of the Rings, Anatham, The Safehold Series, and my new Love the Song of Fire and Ice series (Game of Thrones). I mostly read Sci-fi and Fantasy, but love an occasional horror story (big King fan). I used to work for a publisher doing contracts and fell in love with publishing and its potential and saw the short comings of the current market as well. You can read one of my short stories here: http://www.triplereadfiction.com/c52/in ... e-fiction/ .

I've also recently started my own little publishing company and hope to do some fun work with short fiction.

I look forward to learning a lot here.

TonyB.

Hi there :)

I'm H.I.Adam, you can also call me by my first name 'Haneen', I'm a women and I come from Sudan! Yup a very far away place. This is my first time in the forums, but I've been around Nathan's Blog for years now. I write mostly Fantasy, Sci fi and dystopian, but I'm also more accustomed to mixing it all together, what can I say? I love mixing genres.
I started my first novel at the end of 2009, and I hope I finally get to finish it this year, it's a somewhat Historical about Vampires, I also write short stories. Writing is basically my life and I hope that joining this interesting community (or anything by Nathan cause he's Awesome) will be of great help to my writing since I'm pretty much a beginner. I'm also hoping I would be of help to whoever needs mine :)

Thank you.
H.I.Adam
