Im lango, or, if youd rather call me by my "Pen Name", Ren Oliver, or just ren for short :P

Im from brazil, am an impulsive reader since very, very long ago and, since most books I read were in english, I tend to write stuff in english, it comes much more naturally to me
Im 20, but I started most of the plots Ill post here when I was 13, back then I was way more creative at thinking up plots, but sucked at writing them. Now I make up way less plots, but still suck at writing them ;)

If youre younger then me though, dont treat me with any special respect since, if I didnt tell one my age, one would guess I was 10 :D

Hey, cool!

Newbies unite!

There's nothing wrong with using plots from seven years ago. I pretty much use the same three main characters, alternated, so...that's probably worse.

Brazil, huh? Pretty awesome. My school's going to Brazil in two years...maybe by some wierd stretch of the imagination we'll meet! :O

Not likely, but, whatever. <3

So, can't wait to read what you write!

My piano teacher is Brazilian. I have a piano lesson today. I should practice. I will trick her into thinking that I have everything memorized! (This is one of my common techniques; I have honed it to perfection. You watch -- this is going to work ... )

Hehnyway. Is lango a Portuguese word? Or some-other-language word? Or a made-up word?

And you don't want to read my 13-year-old plots. Wait ... I was 13 last year. Never mind.

Hello, and welcome to YWO :).

My stuff when I was younger was really stupid. Not the plots, though, come to think of it... Ha. The plot for my very first (and very awful) novel is the plot I am using now (that's a real stretch of the truth, but... ). Go figure :P

I've got a dance teacher who's Brazilian. She's told me a few words, but I forgot them :P.

What do you write? Fiction, non fiction?

Anyway, PM me for whatever

Hmm, lango is somewhat a made-up word. We had a toy here called Lango-lango (2 crudelydesigned fighters who punched each other or something like that), and for some reason, someone called me that when I was a kid, it became a kind of nickname, though usually I use "Zack" as screen-name, but since the created character "Zack Dragoon" will actually have his own plot eventually :D I decided to go back to lango

Fast replies here lol, kinda surprised me :P

Majyk, usually I write fiction, though Im trying to complete a non-fiction plot, something involving friendship, impossible love, and a car crash :D

sXe~
I have the same tendency, 3 of my worse plots have the same main character

Hello. Welcome.
Yea my main language is Farsi, but since I read in english, writing comes more naturally in English so I get what you mean.
I'm 13 and my plots suck...wait come to think of it, I don't really have any recent plots anyways.
Don't worry about getting special respect from me, few people get that.
Oh and it's a good thing you didn't go with Zack, every since Zack Efron started being on TV everyday, I associate that name with him...and you just don't want to be associated with him xD

Your main language is Farsi!

Damn ... ever since reading Orson Scott Card's Empire, I've had a secret desire to learn Farsi. -.-

It looks like you may also want to change the name of your main character, just to keep Nyx happy. Yes, that's a very good reason to change a name.

And English is my second language also, but I only bring that up so I can brag about it. English is also my best language ... but I didn't tell you that.

What is your first language Carr?

Hmm, same here :P I suck at my own language, so I write in english because Im best at it, though I usually dont say Im brazilian, I tend to wait a while so that when I say I am, people act surprised, thus giving me an ego-boost :D

The most I could write in my language would be stuff like:

"The sun has come out. I am going to school."

And random lesson stuff like that.

The language being Chinese Mandarin. I understand it well, and I speak it okayily, but I can read only the simplest sentences and write only the simplest words -- I mean, characters.

Hallo and welcome. I'm Lily or Lykaios. :)

I have sucked at every language I have tried to learn except German which I didn't totally suck at. I'm now doing Spanish but . . . aha, I'm failing on a landslide.
