My name is Beth. I'm seventeen years old. I love Monty Python, Tomb Raider, Frasier and all different things. Uh...How long have I been writing? Probably ever since I could write but I was eight when I decided I was going to do it for a living. I'm in college at the moment, doing a Journalism course. I did Childcare last year, but decided to focus on my dream (to be the next Daniel Handler, of course!) I came here because I wanted to talk to people with the same interest, because most of my friends don't really "get" me. So, hey everyone
Hey, Beth! Welcome to YWS *waves* You can call me Aqua, AM or Amy. If you're looking for like-minded people, this is definitely the place to come! Everybody's awesome.
First off, some rules:
1) NO CAPS LOCK or cht spk. It is a writers site after all. 2) 2:1 ratiom you need to do two reviews for every piece of work you put on here. This'll go up to 3 in October. 3) Rate your work, it has to be rated R if it involves the f word or adult content. 4) Be nice! Keep swearing in your stories, no flaming people etc.
And now, onto you! What genre do you read/write? Who's your favourite author? Do you write poetry or stories? If you went to a desert island: a) what three books would you take? B) what 2 misc. items would you take? C) What would you eat/drink for the rest of you life.
Look forward to seeing you around! ~Amy

My favourite author is Daniel Handler, he's awesome!
I mainly write stories. I don't really like writing poetry.
If I went to a desert, what things would I have? That's easy! My favourite Lemony Snicket books, a notebook and pen, Coke and cheese omelettes (I live on that anyway)
Oh, man, I had no idea who Daniel Handler was! So I google. Never knew LS was a pen name... I love those books though, I haven't read them in about a year, but I have them all. Although, the last one kinda dissapointed me; I'm one for proper endings! Cheese omlette! *noms* Hope you enjoy the site, seems like you will! -Amy

I didn't really like The End either, a lot of my friends hate it. I don't hate it as such, but I think Danny could've written it better. Heck! I, a dyspraxic teenager, could've written it better hehe
Dyspraxic is autism right? My parent's used to think I was dyspraxic, or that I had another type of autism that I can't remember. Personally, I think I have a mild case of it but I look on the dark side quite a lot >.<.

Hi! My name is Lucinda. Another Snicket fan, eh? I knew I wasn't alone! XD I consider myself to be a pretty obsessive gal. I've read the books to the point where I started finding codes and stuff. It's a pretty crazy world, the Lemony Snicket one. xD
