Hello everyone, and welcome! My name is Polina Stepanova, I am Russian but have studied English for over 10 years now. I am really looking forward to reading all that's on here and have you read my creations:)
I signed up not long ago, and I'm still working out how the site works. All of you are welcome to my site, where I have all my writing, and I really want the site to get some views:)
I have already published a book in Russia in 2010, right now I am working on an English novel called "Angst" (which can be found on the blog or the site). I also write songs for the singers in my school, poems, short stories and prose. I don't really have a particular genre although my book is fantasy/science fiction.
So, that's a little about myself, I hope all of you enjoy my writing, and I know I will certainly enjoy yours:) :D
Love to all, xxx
Polina.

Hi Polina! I can't wait to get to know you! You sound really interesting. Those 10 years of English must have been horrible. Even I don't know all our grammar rules and it is my only language! But you would never think that you actually speak a different language. But since you were 5! That is such a long time I suppose it is kind of lake your original language!

One thing you said was that your best work was on your blog. Well your best work next to the work on your site. This might not be the best. Even though blogs get a lot of views you will still get more views/reviews if you post your work under the literary forums. If your not sure how to do this just P.M. me.

So in short I hope you enjoy it here! I will be keeping my eye out for anything you post!

Calli

P.S. I looked at your site and saw your picture. You are so pretty! I want to look like you. XD XD

Hey Calli,

Firstly, thank you for such a welcoming and warm-hearted response, I can't wait to see your writing too:)
10 years is indeed a long time, but I am now in a English boarding school, so it's not too hard to keep the language skills up:D
Thank you so much for your advice, I didn't realize I could actually publish my writing instead of putting them into my blog:)) I will hopefully get used to this soon...
Glad you visited the site!

Hello, hello!

I'm Walker and its a pleasure to meet you, Polina!

Thats really cool that you speak two languages! Especially the fact that they are so far apart from eachother is probably why I'm so astounded. Russian always confused me greatly so french was more my alley of study.

Either way, welcome, welcome, and I'm sure you'll find that everybody here is as friendly as anyone could wish for ^_^

If you need anything, feel free to pm me! Whether that be a review request, questions about the site, or even just wanting to talk! I'm usually always here anyways... xD

Hey Walker,

Russian is often confusing to me too, all the grammar rules are simply endless... English is way easier in that sense:D I study French at my school, too, but I'm afraid I'm not brilliant at it:))
Thanks for the welcome message, I will be keeping an eye out for your writing, I see you have A LOT of it:O

Hey Polina! I'm Nike, and I'm very excited to meet you! You've published a book already, wow, that's great! You sound very interesting and I can't wait to get to know your writing and you of course.

You know two languages, that's interesting as wel, I know Polish and English. But the grammer is so difficult in Polish that I don't really write much in Polish, I stick to English. It's great to have you here, so, if you have any questions, conceres, or just wanna stop by and say Hi, then PM me or comment on my Wall.

I can't waot to read your creations!

Nike :)
