Hello! I stumbled across this forum through someone's signature on Gaia, and thought I'd sign up and check it out!

Let's see, about me. My name's Persephone, and I'm a 19-year-old denizen of southeast Alaska. I spend my free time drinking, writing, smoking pot and lurking in forums such as this.

My current projects:

Denial - A psychological horror novel, where nothing is as it seems, and you can never be sure how much is real and how much is just in your head. Some sexual content.

Surrender - Two friends have a running joke that he is conditioning her, brainwashing her to serve him. But is it really just a joke? Novella, some sexual content.

Rathaven - In a remote, easily overlooked corner of the most powerful nation on earth, young supernatural creatures have gathered in a community mysteriously devoid of adults. At the center of everything, an enigmatic, ancient creature lurks, feeding on the raw energy of youth.

And welcome, BTW. ^_^ Persphone is an awesome name.

Ani - Don't worry, I read the rules; none of the sexual or graphically violent content of the stories will find its way into this forum, I promise!

Jennafina + Fireweed - Two fellow Alaskans already? I certainly never expected that! XD I live in Juneau, as well. I wonder that I've never met you... but I must not have, because you would obviously have recognized my name if I had!

Everyone else, thanks for the welcome :) And also for the admiration of my name, though I didn't choose it for myself. You all seem very friendly, and I look forward to chatting and sharing my work with you!

Welcome Persephone!

I guess by now you've probably had a chance to look around properly, though it can be quite easy to get lost if you're new. At least... that's what I've heard. Feel free to ask if you have any questions, though I likely won't be able to get back to you straight away.

Have to say, love the titles of your current WIPs. Denial's so short but it says so much about the story.

Anyway, gotta go. Have fun!

Welcome to the site! Your current projects pique my curiosity. Particularly "Denial" and "Rathaven" Though I like darker stories anyway.

Hope you enjoy your stay! ^_^

Wow... You live in Juneau?! That's cool. And a little spooky... 0_o No, I don't know you... but it's possible I've seen you around. It's a small town...

Actually, you can post anything as long as you rate it properly. For example, a story with high sexual and graphical content would have to be rated "R" if it was to be posted.

Welcome to the site :-)

Your stories sound so...morbid! I can't wait to read them, will we get any of your works to look at?

I'm sure someone else has said it by now, but if you need anything (help, can't find your way around, you want a critique) you can contact me :-D
