Hey all! I'm new here -- been writing fairly seriously for about a decade and been wading slowly into the publishing world more recently. Would love to get to know any other writers hanging out around here -- what do you write and what are you working on?

I write a lot of fantasy/speculative, though I also do some short work in the space of memoir and CNF. Currently working on a novel about a girl whose voice is death.

Anyway, introduce yourselves! I'd love to see any stories you might be up for sharing!

I’m a writer. I’m currently working on a post-modern dystopian fiction novel with transhumanism and fantasy elements. I’ve been working on it for several years now but it never seems to come out the way i want it to.

I love stuff that crosses genre lines -- so your stuff sounds right up my alley. It's funny how the words never quite seem to want to cooperate. Anything you've been struggling with in particular?

The characters. Humans are really complex and dynamic creatures; and it’s difficult to capture that in fiction. I always feel like my characters are 2-dimensional.
