Greetings...

Hello all.

I'm not really sure what to write for this, because I'm horribly shy and thus my ability to write introduction posts has been slowly deteriorating. *cough*

But anyway.

My name is Breeze, I'm a twenty-something-year-old to-be grad student. I have been writing basically since I was in sixth grade or so. My first piece of writing was a screwy thing about some girl being visited by an angel. My first novel is here if you're ever bored and want to read something so awful it's absolutely hysterical.

I specialize in what I call either weird or semi-realistic fantasy. Basically instead of writing about people going on epic quests to slay dragons, I write about a therapist trying to treat her patient who is basically a human-animal hybrid, and also an illegal immigrant. I dabble in other genres occasionally but fantasy is my focus.

I've wanted good advice for writing for ages but after being basically ignored on sites like Fictionpress, I've become really shy about it and so barely show my work to anyone anymore. I'm hoping maybe talking about writing on this community, or just reading what people post, will give me both the muse to write more regularly, and maybe the courage to post my stuff online more often.

So yeah I think that's about it. *waves*

I know exactly how you feel re: places like Fictionpress. It's hard to get yourself noticed in a big community like that without already having a circle of friends. DW in general seems to be much better about that, and hopefully this community will follow suit. :)

And since you've admitted you're at least as shy as I am, I should probably write up an into post...

Yeah, I keep getting random e-mails about people appreciating my stuff on FanFiction.net... Which isn't exactly what I want, haha. I've noticed that as my writing improved, the number of people who were willing to read it went down... Strange world.
