Hai.

[Hemlock]

Hey guys, I'm Hemlock -- Kelsey works just fine, too. I have a passion for writing and literature, and I can't wait to get the ball rolling! I don't mind editing or beta-reading. I prefer to read science fiction, fantasy, or young adult. I can't edit poetry to save my life, sorry guys. When it comes to writing, I have this idea... we should be helping each other out. I've been on too many sites where both the writers and the editors took everything too personal. They were out to get each other, and it was horrible... Anyway, I hope to meet a lot of you! Let's get this going!

Hiya! nice to have a new member :D
Anyway, I'm ManyIdeas, but Jade works all the well XD
What are your favorite books, movies, food, color??

[Alice Glitterhorn]

Haiho, I iz Alice, Mother of All, and you may call me Alice, Mother of All.

Or, ya know, you can call me Alice. I do find it most offensive, though.

Welcome, and try not to misplace your belongings, as we have trolls who sweep the place daily, and they enjoy stealing whatever they can find. This also includes fingers.

Welcome to YWO! We've got a lot of SF/F-oriented folks here, so you'll fit right in.

Let me know if you have any questions :).

[Hemlock]

Hello, Jade! And to answer your questions... I have many favorites, and it's hard place any of them in the number one spot. I definitely admire Stephen King and Kurt Vonnegut. Sherman Alexie's works are great too. As for movies -- have you seen Death at a Funeral? I die every time I watch it. It's awesome. I like comedies or war movies. I like seafood and Italian cuisine. And lastly, green in my favorite color.

Now for you... if you had to choose between being extremely hairy or completely bald (everywhere on your body) for a lifetime, what would you choose? And elaborate, because that's the best part.

Alice, the great Mother of All, it's nice to meet you! As long as they keep their hands off my flannel and sequins collection, there will not be a problem.

And thank you Shaun! It's good to be here.

[Anira]

Hi Kelsey! Welcome to YWO. I think you really will like it here, everyone is nice. Perhaps not normal, but nice. :P

[Hemlock]

Thanks, Anira! It's nice to meet you!

[lostbookworm]

Welcomes! Nice too see another reader of YA. Now, I have decided to start asking people their Religious Orientation! Now, Catholic, Protestant, Muslim, Jew, Sikh, Hindu, Atheist, Agnostic, Satanist, Odinist or Simon Cowellist? See ya round!

[Faust]

Oh dang beaten again! Well I just wanted to be first so, see ya!

[Clarissa]

Why hello there...

You sound so damn amazing. All enthusiastic and everything. Just what we needed. Perfect. Awesome.

I'll stop gushing now... but yes. I'm happy :)

Welcome to this site. Grab a broom, and mind out for the crazy people... Follow the rules and such, although you do seem experienced, and we won't feed you to Alice. I have nothing to say, you seem so knowledgeable already. I feel like I'm the noob...

Well, let the ritual interrogation begin:

Who, if you had to pick one, would be your favourite author?
Favourite music/musician/band?
Favourite colour?
What colour is your hair?
How has your day been?

Okay. That's all. I may have to steal you as a pet by the way. I like you, even if the feeling is not mutual. Buhbye.
