Hi, everyone. New, obviously :p
Hi guys and gals. You can call me Tauni, Rain or Tauni Rain. I'm 21, a Gemini (yay 
) and I live in Anchorage, Alaska.
I quite enjoy writing fiction of all lengths and subjects and am currently writing a vampire fiction... not so much along the lines of Twilight. While I have nothing against the books or film, it's not my taste. I've written ghost stories, slashers, you name it. I also take requests for fun.
When I'm not writing I like to draw-portraits mostly. For the last 8 or 9 years I've worked almost exclusively in black and white but have recently started working my way into the world of colored pencils.
For a long time, all I would really read was Stephen King (ever since I actually became interested in reading, you might say), and didn't start reading Palahniuk until after I'd seen Fight Club 
. However, his writing has inspired me to add a little edge to my own. Pushing the envelop always makes for an interesting read for me, and so I figure it couldn't hurt me.
Sooo, there's a brief rundown of me. I look forward to chatting with you all.
The Stand is very good, it just goes on forever lol. Make sure you don't lose your spot. I made that mistake whilst reading Insomnia, also by Stephen King. The book is about 4 inches thick. I know I was somewhere around a third of the way through, but I was so let down when I couldn't find my spot again lol.
Are you an eskimo?
Nope; not an Eskimo. I'm Cherokee.
How long have you been doing porn?
Tuffy the Dump Truck may rarely increase the risk of a heart attack or stroke. The risk may be greater if you have heart disease or increased risk for heart disease (for example, due to smoking, family history of heart disease, or conditions such as high blood pressure or diabetes), or with longer use. Tuffy should not be taken right before or after heart bypass surgery. Also, Tuffy may infrequently cause serious (rarely fatal) bleeding from the stomach or intestines. This effect can occur without warning symptoms at any time while taking Tuffy. Older adults may be at higher risk for this effect. (See also Precautions and Drug Interactions sections.) Stop taking Tuffy and get medical help right away if you notice any of the following rare but serious side effects: bloody or black/tarry stools, persistent stomach/abdominal pain, vomit that looks like coffee grounds, chest/jaw/left arm pain, shortness of breath, unusual sweating, weakness on one side of the body, sudden vision changes, slurred speech. Ask your doctor if Tuffy is right for you.
What? O.o
The Stand is epic, Check out the Sketch project threads, and whats this I hear about porn?
As your attorney, my advise to you is to start drinking heavily(er).-Tuffy
Seems Tuffy misread my initial post lol. I said I write slashers (i.e. serial killer stories) and it was misinterpreted as slash.
I think he means that your name sounds porny.
I think he was hoping for another dress down thread.

This
Welcome. I'm going to call you Tsunami_Reign.
hi Tauni, definitely check out the creative thread and the monthly sketch project - would love to see some of your drawings!
Can bears whistle?

Thanks, I will
dont mind these guys. its the whole fresh meat deal. if you post something in the 'new member forum' its like saying: throw some fucking eggs at me, cause i just got here!!
if you're up for it, the writing workshop could always use some new blood. i will be going back there in march, after the intensive with clevenger is over) it is very helpful to almost everyone who has signed up for the year, and taken it seriously. if you want to write, and you want to write better, especially thats worth checking out. and the price is the lowest anywhere for the quality of the advice you get*
anyway, im chuck, and no, im not THAT chuck. there was some confusion about that a while back. let's not start that up again, shall we?
*you may sometimes find people who just want to get their review count up so they can post a story. but dont let the douche-bag-ery throw you off.

“...There are so many ways of being despicable it quite makes one's head spin. But the way to be really despicable is to be contemptuous of other people's pain. You ought to have some apprehension that the man you see before you was once even younger than you are now and arrived at his present wretchedness by imperceptible degrees.”

"Tawny Rain" - the name - sounds like a big-haired 80's porn chick.
I thought the joke was obvious. Carry on.

"I'm glad I live in the GPS era. In a different century, I would've set off to visit the other side of the village and wandered off into the mountains and been eaten by a carnivorous plant. Or discovered the Americas."

Nah. Tawny Rain would be the porn star that looked kinda sorta like Tawny Kitaen and made thinly-disguised parodies of her body of *ahem* work.
Hey Tauni. I just recently joined myself!
I am just about to start my first Stephen King book 'The Stand' as I have heard it's an amazing read.
Hope the Vampire fiction is coming along nicely!
