Greetings, everyone.

Been lurking off & on for a while, even tried the chat room a couple times, but I discovered I have even less to add to an online conversation than I do to one with people I actually sort of know.

Anyhow, never having been a part of one, I thought I'd try joining the community. And although I can't afford it, I really, really think I need to upgrade to **Premium** soon. Let's just say that I've been... disappointed... with what's available in some of the online writing forums.

So, I hope to offer critiques to some engaging work--that has actually been proofread by its author (!) --and, following that, post some of my own work. I get the impression that rarely will punches be pulled, and that no one is likely to drop a piece due to a few profanities uttered by 12-year-old aliens.

As for the rest of the forum thing, well, I'll give it a shot. But bear with me-- I'm really not good at it. (Plus, I've got this bear with me...)

Paul

welcome to the cult, paul.

how'd you find us?

as to the premium areas, the workshop and the essays, they are gold. well worth it. i havent submitted any written pieces yet, but it's been a blast reading and helping others with their stuff, learning the whole time.

Hey there,

Thanks!

I think I found the site when I heard 'Choke' was gonna be a movie, and was searching to see if it would be playing anywhere within a hundred miles. (It wasn't.)

The more I look around, the more I'm drooling over the Premium areas.

drool on, brother, drool on.

then sink your teeth in and have a bite.

i'm assuming you already read choke? if not i'd really recommend you do. i got my hands on a screener of the movie a couple months ago and wouldnt really want anyone to watch it before they read it. the most amazing passages and bits of victor just didn't come through.
