Hello Everyone

The post on NaNoWriMo brought me here.

I never really know what to say on these things. I'm originally from Seattle, but I grew up in Detroit. I'm a history teacher in the middle of nowhere Arizona (If you've ever seen Hallelujah Trail, it was filmed close to where I live).

I'd be poking around my book for a year or so. Then Novlr offered to extend my trial for NaNoWriMo. I'm making decent progress and I hope to get the lion's share of it drafted this month.

I'm glad to be part of this form and looking forward to everything.

Welcome to the forum, V4. It's always awkward to walk in on a party in progress. Unlike an RL party, though, here you can review the conversations. Have a look around the forums and read some of the threads. You'll get to know the locals and I'm sure comments and questions will start to occur to you.

BTW, what history do you teach? High school or college? And isn't all of Arizona in the middle of nowhere? ;-)

Welcome, VfortheShadow. I'm glad you saw the post in the Nano forums.

Until recently, my daughter was in Flagstaff, AZ, which I think is far from where you are. I hope you enjoy your time here.

Thanks for the welcome! Middle, actually. Ancient Studies and US History.

And yeah, pretty much. I drive out of shape because it's a little bit closer.

Thanks! Love the name, by the way. Gormemghast is one of my favorite books.

I guess, yeah. Like I said, I drive to New Mexico to shop, so my preception of far has changed. I'm about halfway between Flagstaff and Albuquerque.

Glad to meet another Peake fan!

Hail and well met VfortheShadow
Good to have you here.
The Hallelujah Trail was one of my father's favourite film. He took his new girlfriend [the woman that became my mother] to see it on their first date.
