Hello!!!

My name's Hannah, I'm 20 and low and behold, I am new here! *insert gasps and applause here*

As you have probably guessed, I am a budding writer. I hope to one day have something in my collectionn of saved Microsoft Word documents published, sitting on a bookshelf in Waterstones or Borders or even your local bookshop!
So yes, me as a writer. I've always had ideas, but most of them don't take shape and tend to sit in a folder labelled 'Unwanted' but I don't have the heart to delete them, because I might come back to them.

In the works at the moment I have three novels, all of three very different genres. Firstly there's The Order, book one in what I hope will be a Victiorian/modern fantasy (I think)trilogy by the name of The Immortal Guardians.
Second up is Leader of the Pack, my feel good YA romance drama. And thirdly has no name as of yet, but it's set in World War Two, between England, Australia and France.

So hopefully you'll get to see some of these works, especially the first one as at the present time, that is where my main concentration is (trying) to lie!

Aparts from writing, I love reading, especially Jane Austen, Elizabeth Gaskell and other classics. I'm also a travel nut, and love movie scores.

See you around people!!

Wow, Austenite, I haven’t welcomed anyone in ages. You sure are lucky!

Well, I feel I should introduce myself! The names Lily!

Anyways, there’s a few really important things to know about YWS! The first is that, the more you review, the chances are, the more reviews you’ll get and the more friendships you’ll create. To review, all you have to do is click riiiiiight here, search for something you want to review, and then, review it!

And check out these badges! They’re a fairly new feature here on the site. I’m still trying to get used to them myself. :D You can earn them by reviewing, getting involved as a greeter, and

Another thing to know about is the chat room! It’s only the most happenist place on the web!

Oh, and the last thing I feel I really need to mention is the Contest Forum!! Contests are a great way to challenge yourself as a writer and have fun doing it (and the prizes are nice too)!

But now, more about you.

Obviously, you told us plenty about what you write! But what about you?

You’re 20, so are you in college? Where at?
What’s your favorite orange-colored food?
If you could be any type of berry, what type would that be?
Family Guy or Simpsons? Who do you choose?
What’s your favorite book?
Favorite movie?
And…hmm…aw yes. The best question ever ask: “What’s your favorite color?”

I do expect answers! Haha! I hope you enjoy YWS as much as I have and if you have any questions, don’t hesitate to ask them.
All you have to do to ask is just click the little “PM” button under my name!

Oh, and don't forget not to click on the links in my signature!

Never forget who you are, for surely the world will not. Make it your strength. Then it can never be your weakness. Armor yourself in it, and it will never be used to hurt you.

Thanks for the welcomes!! I'm not very good at them myself, so I'll answer your questions as best as I can. I tend to go off on a tangent when introducing myself, so this time I thought I'd keep it short and sweet but I am more than happy to answer questions about little old moi!!

I'm 20, yes, turning 21. I've actually finished college, when I lived in Australia (where I'm from originally) but right now I'm currently working in Edinburgh, Scotland, and am hopefully going to university next year here.
My favourite orange coloured food are carrots. I was going to say apples but then I realized they were green!!
If I were a berry, I'd be a goose, cos that's the only one I can think of right now!
I'd choose Family Guy, because I am a great follower of Stewie's. But the Simpsons are classic!
My favourite book is North and South by Elizabeth Gaskell and Northanger Abbey by Jane Austen. My favourite movie is Roman Holiday, Love Actually and The Last Remake of Beau Geste. My favourite colour is Azure. And lastly, my favourite type of bottled water is Volvic. :D

Change isn't inherently good, but you can't stop it, so let's just enjoy the ride. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
