...because who doesn't like to talk about themselves?
Anyway.
I am TNO. Also known as TNÖ because umlauts are awesome. TNO stands for The Nearly Omnipotent, a nickname I coined for myself in middle school. The title didn't stick; the acronym did, and there you have it. the "and Xadric" bit refers to a game on an entirely different site in which we all had to name our "muse". Xadric was mine. He's a cat, in case you're interested.
I'm here because an online friend of mine mentioned it in passing, and since it's rather late at night, I am, as usual, bored enough to dole out yet another username, password, and email to yet another site. Also because I lack motivation while writing, excepting the months of November and April, and I figure a community of other writers might help me steer clear of Shiny New Idea syndrome for more than three chapters at a time.
The deciding factor, though, was seeing a link to TV Tropes on the... "Writing Gooder" blog thing. I love that site.
But I suppose I'm expected to introduce myself?
Well. I'm from Wyoming. I just turned sixteen. I'm rather boring, I'm afraid.
I've been writing since... forever, really. Quite a long time; my first finished story was written (by me) when I was nine and lasted for about twenty pages of dreadful plot, flat characters, and anticlimactic "twists". Such is life. Since then I haven't really finished anything save a Script Frenzy '08. Well, I also finished my NaNoWriMo story in 2007 but the ending was so abrupt and disconnected that it doesn't really count.
My motivation stems largely from NaNoWriMo in November and Script Frenzy in April. Otherwise I sort of flip-flop between story ideas.
I tend to write fantasy. I have attempted realistic fiction as per my darling mother's requests ("write what you know, Haley, write what you know!"), but it always ends up with magic and multiple worlds or dimensions or whatever. What can I say? Realistic fiction bores me half to death, for the most part.
In case you haven't already gathered, I have a dreadful tendency to ramble when I'm online. In reality I'm rather quiet, with a tendency to stare silently at the nearest wall, sometimes for hours on end, but give me a keyboard and a forum, blog, or other online community and I can ramble for ages. I think it has something to do with the wide, empty spaces that make up most comment boxes.
So. Hello! Very nice to meet you.
