Hi everyone. I saw everyone else who was new posting here so I bent to peer-pressure and did likewise.

Short bio: Name's Devon. Big on fantasy, scifi and horror. A bit of a grammar snob, which is kind of ironic with all these sentence fragments here. I. Guess. Sentence. Fragments. Are. Exceptions to. My snobbery. And I think most of the stuff I write is going to deserve R ratings, unfortunately. I enjoy long walks on frozen, snow-covered Canadian beaches... as in... walking on the frozen water. Okay, I'm lying. I live in Toronto. It's not really that cold. But I do curl.

So... yeah, that's me in a really small nutshell for the intents and purposes of this site.

Cheers, and happy reading/writing.

Hi Devon. Welcome to the site!

Quite cool about the horror... as I may need to write some murder scenes for my NaNo. Any tips? ;)

Oh, and Canada is cool. I mean, cold. Um.. yeah.

Anyways, if you get lost or anything, feel free to PM me or something.

Have fun!
Kay.

Hey, and welcome to YWS!

I have a cousin named Devon. But he's about seven years old, so you're definitely not him. XD

PM me if you've got any questions or need a critique!

I can't wait to see your work around the site...

Oi, we've got another Canadian!

Cool that we've got another fantasy lover, too.

Welcome to you, Devon, and I hope you enjoy it here at YWS. Feel free to PM me or something if you have questions and so-so.

Devon has to be one of the greatest names ever. It starts with a D and can be used for either gender. Remarkable!

Welcome to the YWS. Don't worry about being a grammar snob. Most of us are.

Or as I like to call...

GRAMMAR NAZIS!~

You won't be alone in being a grammar nazi as MW puts it. They're all over this site.

Welcome to YWS and I hope your horror is full of lovely violence and bloodshed. PM me if you feel like chatting to stave off boredom.

Ta!

Hey devon!

Glad you decided to join the ever growing community of writers/crazy people.

Grammar nazis... i guess some could put it that way... if you wanted to.

Canada is cool. Random fact: I have a huge canadian flag that takes up an entire wall in my room, yet i live in souther US.... I don't even know why.

Welcome! I. Can. Talk. In. Fragments. Too. But OMG, SO ANNOYING!

Oh well. At least you eat grammar for Halloween. That's pretty fun. :)

We've met already. ^_^

I, too, am addicted to fragments - there just too interesting to stop using. I mean, who wants to read everything in perfectly grammatical, easily diagrammable sentences anyway? ^_~

Welcome, again.
