Gathering of the Figments

zeppelin123 · Posted: Sat Mar 29, 2008 1:00 am Post subject: Newbie/intro...

Hello, I my name is Laura and I'm a 22-year-old psychology student. I was referred to this forum by Figgy via absolutewrite.

My writing interests include middle grade fiction (books for ages 9-12), inspirational/spiritual poetry, and the occasional essay. Most of my fiction writing deals with characters with special needs.

I also enjoy spending time with my family, playing computer simulation games, my animals (especially cats and reptiles), trampolining, swimming, reading, and my psychology courses (especially neuropsychology and educational psychology).

I think this is a beautiful website and I'm looking forward to being a member.

I have a website at http://zeppyoscarandcompany.blogspot.com/

I just want you to know who I am

Hello, I'm GD, the most prominent of the waterholics you were warned about. You share the same name as my alto saxophone! And you're studying psychology which is awesome, because I find that subject fascinating (despite the fact that I've never taken a psychology course in my life). Welcome to the forums!
*takes a shot of water*
Oh yeah, I'm the resident music, just to explain my erratic behaviour.
*takes another shot*
Oh, and I'm not posting a whole lot at the moment as I promised to not post on random topics (this not being included) unless I have critiqued a story first.
*takes another shot, and is now noticeable drunk*
