Howdy!

My name is Elise and I am new to YWS. I used to write a lot, but stopped nearing 3 years ago. In my new search to find myself again I am exploring old hobbies of mine and writing is the top priority. I've been doing a lot of beginner writing exercises and have been so excited with everything that is coming from it. I want to continue to grow. That being said, I am so excited to be here to not only assist in other's growth in writing, but to be able to grow myself.

A few facts about me:
-I am from Alabama, but reside now in ATX
-I play guitar and sing
-I have a 2 year old boy named Grey
-I have a dog named Aura June
-I am an INFJ
-I work in property management
-I am a crazy plant lady (and all of my plants are humanized with real people names. i.e. Jerry, Poppy, Lola, Carlos, Miranda, & Sophia.)

I can't wait to make writer friends!

Welcome to the site! Glad to hear you're rediscovering yourself. :D What kinds of plants do you have?
We're all stories in the end.

I think of you as a fairy with a green dress and a flower crown and stuff.

I think you, @Deanie and I are like the Three Book Nerd Musketeers of YWS.

Hello Mea!

Thank you so much.
Jerry is a snake plant. Poppy is a white jasmine. Miranda is a country girl chrysanthemum (she won't bloom until October with white blooms.) Sophia is a sapphire sage. & Carlos is a mexican honeysuckle. They are all perennials! I had no idea that I had a green thumb until I got Jerry and realized how relaxing it was tending to him. But...he requires literally no care besides water once a month. So then I slowly tacked on all of the others. I am leaving town next weekend and actually had to find a plant sitter...

Hey Elise! I’m Ellie!

Wow, your plant collection sounds awesome. I wish had the patience to do something like that. Welcome to the site! :D YWS is a great community.

All our dreams can come true — if we have the courage to pursue them.

Welcome, Elle! YWS is a fantastic place to begin renewing your writing habits. What type of dog is Aura Jane? :3
