Young Writers Society

Hey everyone!

I'm xDudettex aka Anna, am new here and just wanted to say hello. I found this site whilst searching for tips on writing and after looking around the site, I decided to join. You all seem so friendly here which is one of the reasons i joined.

I'm 18 years old and live in Bristol, England. I love writing and always have done, but recently it's turned from a hobby to something I do on a regular basis. I started writing my first book when I was 13 and finished it a couple of years ago. I've written another book since then which I finished last october. It's teenage fiction, but it doesn't really have a specific genre. I'm now writing my third book, which I hope to develop into a trilogy.

I love music too, especially Paramore and Simple plan. I tend to listen to music whilst writing as I find the lyrics inspire me.

So anyway i just wanted to say hey.

Hey - thanks for making me feel so welcome

Yeah, Paramore's probably my favourite band. I'd say my favourite song of theirs is either "Brighter" or "Whoa." "Decode," actually helped unblock my writers block a couple of weeks ago, so its been playing over and over on my laptop to keep the ideas coming.

Umm, i've self published my first book - 'Rumours' with 'Authorhouse', but i'd love to publish one of my books with a traditional publisher. It would be amazing. I've got a literary agent at the moment and i'm waiting with bated breath to hear back from a publisher that my agent has put my in contact with. I've sent them my manuscript for my second book titled, 'Lily Foxglove.'

It's hard to pick a favourite book but i do love 'New Moon,' by Stephenie Meyer, so obviously 'Twilight' is my favourite film of the moment.

I don't really have a favourite writing genre, but 'Lily Foxglove' is a mixture of mystery, romance and adventure if there can be such a thing. If not, i've invented it for my own purposes

Thanks again for making me feel welcome so quickly

Hey,
welcome to YSW!
I'm sure you'll enjoy it very much here I recently joined as well, and I certainly do!

Wow, that's amazing! You finished 2 books already? And published one as well? I totally envy you xD
I've never gotten to the first twenty chapters, I think -_-

I love Paramore, too! Especially since "Twilight" - 'Decode' just rocks ^^

Hope you enjoy it here

Welcome to YWS Anna! I am Winter.

I am incredibly jealous that you have already written two books. I've just started my first and I haven't gotten very far with it. If all goes well I will finish it eventually.

I haven't heard of Paramore. It seems I'm the only one! But I generally just listen to classical music.

What genre is the trilogy that you're writing? What are your favorite genres to read?

If you have any questions or would like a review, please feel free to PM me!

*is jealous* I can't keep my attention span focused on one book. I randomly hop between all three of them, trying to actually finish them, but failing horribly. That's why I'm starting a new one for NaNo. Anyway, welcome to YWS!

I don't like Paramore very much, but I love Simple Plan. Though I still say Linkin Park is better... Moving aside from that, everyone already said everything important, so I won't repeat them. So, feel free to PM me for anything you need, anything at all. So, see ya around the forums sometime!
