Hello. My name is Heather. I'm 19, almost 20 and a writer, naturally. I live in Australia and love to draw, paint and read. I'm currently trying to get something published but no luck so far.

Hi Heather, welcome to YWS! I wouldn't worry about getting published right away-just take time to develop yourself as a writer and artist. J.R.R Tolkien didn't get Lord of the Rings published until he was in his 50s, and look how popular that became! Anyway, send me a PM if you have any questions about the site-or if you need a review.

Welcome and best of luck with your writing,
Elinor

Hiya Heather/Scarlett!

I'm Lava and welcome to YWS. *Give a welcome hug* :)
Australia? Awesome! I've always wanted to go there.

So what genre do you write? Me, I'm more into romance, sci-fic and just general fiction.
Well, do you like cricket?
Vanilla with chocolate chips or Chocolate and mint?

See y'around YWS!

Thanks everyone, for the awesome welcome. Some of you have asked me questions so I'll try to answer them... What do I write? Romance, Young Adult, Fantasy, Action/adventure, Sci Fi. Pretty much everything. Vanilla with chocolate chips or Chocolate and mint? Um, both. Heh. What am I trying to get published? Oh, a few things. Mainly my Action/adventure/fantasy with a dash of romance.... Among other things.

Oh, and yes. Australia. Beautiful Australia. *sighs* And yes, I draw and paint. And thank you, shubhiloves2write. It is a lovely pic. And lava, personally, I'm sick of cricket. :(

If you have anymore questions for me, don't hesitate to ask. Thanks again for the welcome. :)
