Hi there! :) I'm just going to go ahead and introduce myself here...
My name's Kat! I'm an English Literature/Creative Writing student from the UK. I'm aged 23 but I still lack some common sense and don't really act my age so I hope I fit in here! XD

I've been writing since childhood. I'm never sure how to classify my writing into genres - whenever I start noticing a trend, sooner or later I surprise myself all over again! If I had to take a guess about the kinds of things I'm writing at the moment, it looks like I'm writing sci-fi , romance and a bit of general YA drama?

Same goes for reading, my tastes change all the time! Right now I'm getting really into 19th Century fantasy, autobiographies and Japanese light novels. Aside from the odd phase I go through, my bookshelves are always packed with fantasy, poetry, non-fiction and comedy. I've also built up quite the collection of graphic novels, manga and comics. Ahh, and I have this habit of collecting random magazines and newspapers!

Chocolate is probably my number one love after reading/writing, closely followed by animals. I also enjoy knitting, sewing, scrapbooking, naps, caffeine, video games, anime/manga, collecting plushies/dolls ...and that's all I can think of at the moment.
I'm chatty and a bit eccentric, but I hope you'll have me! :P
Can't wait to get to know some of you! :)

Hi Kat! :) I'm Cassie! It is great to meet you! I'm sure that everyone will accept you and bring you into our family! But our warn you we are very close! You seem like such a nice person and I can not wait to meet you! If you ever need anything just tell me. I can not promise I will be able to tell you everything but I will try my best! I thought that I could tell you a little about myself. I have a feeling that we are going to be great friends! Here are a few things about me.

I have been writing on and off for a long time. I have been doing the same thing with reading and drawing ect. I have a hard time sticking to one thing. It is something I am trying to improve on. Reading used to be a big hobby of mine. I know that it still is I just have to push myself to focus on that and not do other things. Same thing with all the others. I remember one of the first major things I had written was a poem in 7th grade. My teacher read it out loud to the class. I found myself inspired to write ever since then. And I have.

Beside s reading and writing I enjoy drawing, watching anime ( just watched my full length movie this weekend and it was amazing! :) ) I also love animals too! I tabs a dog named Spencer and a cat named Zigzag! They are both my babies! I call all of my pets my babies but you know! Spencer is a German Shepard and my cat is a Tabby. I got him from the ASPCA and we got our dog from an owner who raises and breeds dogs.

I am also 15 years old!

Hope we can meet up soon!

Hello and welcome to YWS. Points for the extra long introduction (jk ;))
I am glad that you are so enthusiastic about writing and joining here. I hope that you really enjoy your time. I would reckoned going over to the green room and checking out some works there. Maybe you could read one or them,like them and drop a review. Remember to keep then thoughtful and here are my the three steps that I always take
1.Tell them and and point it out in quote form
2.Tell them why it's wrong
3.And how to fix it
Don't sugarcoat anything and the best way to be a better reviewer is to read other peoples reviews. Try reading Deanie or Noelle the best reviewers around here in my opinion. They really shaped my reviewing style.
That's it from me. I hope that this is informative in some way.

P.S. Storybook Forum Resources that's an awesomeness resource that helps you understand my second favorite activity.

I have lived through much, and now I think I have found what is needed for happiness. A quiet secluded life in the country, with the possibility of being useful to people to whom it is easy to do good... then rest, nature, books, music, love for one's neighbor - such is my idea of happiness.
— Leo Tolstoy
