Long time lurker. First time poster.
I have to say I've been really impressed by the positive community I've seen here at MS. I'm looking forward to drawing from all the experience and ideas here (and making attempts to offer some of my own).
It's been a year since I've gotten back into fiction writing after a 10 year hiatus with work, life, laundry, and an impossibly long "To Read" list. Finally exorcising a novel that has been lurking in the corners of my brain and it feels great. That being said, actually writing instead of procrastinating has revealed the awful truth that I really have no idea what I'm doing. That's where you lot come in!
In an attempt to not turn this into an incredibly awkward personal ad here is a list of things about me:
- I have never learned how to swim
- My dog snores and I think it is one of the most adorable sounds ever
- I think poorly of people who put ice in single malt scotch
- I never leave home without a Moleskin
- I have an unhealthy love of office supplies
- I have actually spent 2 hours writing one sentence only to delete it the next day
- My fish always die, except for one... I think he is a serial killer
- Today I learned that the title for someone who practises divination using animal entrails is Haruspex
Looking forward to chatting, encouraging, and possibly arguing with you all.

I have no idea how to add a signature. I would like to have something witty here.

I have no idea why being member 2,222 has made me so deliriously happy! I like even numbers.
