My name is Ziekara and I'm your guild captain. I'm 21 years old and live in Ohio with my fiance, golden retriever and three rabbits. I'm currently a college student double majoring in Anthropology and Asian Studies, with a focus on Japanese language and culture.

Writing has always been an enjoyable hobby for me. I tend to be overly critical of my own work though, so I tend to suffer from writer's block a lot.

My main project is a novel that I hope to one day have published (which is why you wont see it posted here), but I also enjoy writing some poetry and short stories.

This pickled vegetable...

Hello. I'm Renkon Root, but please just call me "Ren".

I'm 23 and have been writing since I learned my letters.

I love to write as a hobby but not really anything more. I don't expect to be able to make money off of it or anything its just something fun to do. I write both fan fictions and original stories but I will only ever post my fan fiction in places where they can be read. My original works I keep hidden away in the deepest, darkest recesses of my word possessor, never to be see by the light of day.

The genres I write in most are Fantasy, Sci-fi, Drama/Melodrama, Action, Romance and Adventure. And, of course I combine them. It is rare when I write a story that's just one genre and not a combination a genres.

You can read my fan fictions on FanFiction.Net. I use the penname RenkonNairu there. You cannot read my original stories, as previously stated, I do not post those anywhere.

That's about all there is about me.
^^

Hello. I have many names but my friends call me Bay. I am 20 years old and I live in Ottawa, Canada. I am in the college of the humanities at my university and I double minor in English and philosophy.

I live with my boyfriend, my roomate, my 2 dogs and 1 very small dog that belongs to my roomate.

I've been writing for a long time. I remember my first story being when I was in grade 3. I've been role-playing for about 12 years, and I've been writing seriously for about 7.

I write many things, some of which i hope to get published, some I don't. I'm realistic though, and I know I have more chances living off screenplays than my more meaningful works.

Oh, I forgot. My other hobbies include painting, kayaking, and singing.

Hello smile I'm Tracy but my friends call me Trace.
I'm 16, although I will be 17 August 3rd xD
I've been writing poems since I was like 12. About three years ago I started writing my book.
Action and romance is my style of writing smile Nothing like a guy kissing a girl then going and kicking some a**. Hmmmm.
I sing and dance. Though I'm not good at either, oh well. On a hot summer day [like today] I can be found either writing on my computer or out horsing around with friends smile


That's meee

Hey. (: I'm Ali. I'm thirteen years old, and have been writing since I was about six. I've always written, even when my main dream was to become a dolphin trainer, when I was six. xD Then, when I was about Nine, and I decided I didn't want to be a dolphin trainer and had no idea what to do with my life, she suggested writing, which was my-not-so-serious hobby, and I liked the idea. Very much so.
I like writing romance best, but historical fiction and adventure are fun to write too. I'm currently working on a very sad, yet beautiful romance. Because of what the coupe gives for one another. Well, it's beautiful in my opinion. (:
I swim, I sing, I dance (not well), but my favorite things to do are hang with friends, hang with my boyfriend, and rock out like an idiot to music. (:
And that'd be me.

Hello, I'm Ophiucha, or Ophis. I'm turning 19 at the end of the summer, and I've been writing since I was 12 or 13 - I can't say I really remember which. I suppose Harry Potter is what really got me into reading, and in turn writing, but I can honestly say my roots in writing come from roleplaying on Neopets (mostly Teen Titans roleplays). Bad start, I know, but hey, we all start somewhere. I mostly write literary fiction and high fantasy - more precisely, I write them together. I like to hold my writing to the same standards as a literary critic would, in regards to stylistic and thematic choices, but my desire to write about abstract political and social concepts has brought about my choice to write in the 'alternative world' setting. And, in need of a plot to drive all these themes, I see no fault in having some dragons.

I grew up in New York, mostly, although I've spent a few years with some family in London. I now attend school in Vancouver (Canada), but I have no idea what on Earth I am in college for. I first intended to major in Asian Studies, but found that most of the students in the classes were either (a) Asian, and screwed up the curve, or (b) otaku, and incredibly annoying to be around. Now I am in Art History, Medieval Studies, and Italian Studies - they are pretty interrelated, but I don't know which I'll be committing to, in the end. They are all utterly useless, however, so my main dedication in life is culinary arts classes, so I can get a real job - as a chef, specifically. While I would certainly like to be a writer professionally, I know that the odds of full-time success are slim, particularly when I don't write for the mainstream. When I was young, I wanted to be a paleontologist - and did for many years. I actually can still name over 200 dinosaurs, all by their full scientific classification, and can place all of them on a time line and list some basic details (nicknames, notable features, diet, habitat, etc.). Needless to say, given that many of my stories feature dragons, this has had a heavy effect on the way I design them. I grew out of that around 7th grade (I started wanting to be a paleontologist during preschool), moved on to Egyptology, then archeology, then anthropology, and then we go back to where we are now.

Hey guys, I'm Jess and I'm 20 years old, and I live in Louisiana with my boyfriend. He writes webcomics. Or is trying too.
I've been writing off and on when I was a kid, but in middle I really got into writing in rolplays, so RP's kinda kicked it all off. Since then it's been a multitude of things.
I love to write, read, I make costumes and cosplay, and love video games.
Eventually, I'll go to culinary school to be a Pastry Chef.

Ahoy. I'm Culex. I'm 19, 20 in December.

I'm actually not very Artsy or write-y, or whatever. I'm actually a proud math major. Obsessed almost.

I've written a few things, though almost all for school. I wrote some fanfiction before, albeit that was so bad I don't dare take credit for it. It's hard to say how long I've been writing, since I only write when given a strange sort of inspiration.

I also play Chess and do math. : )

Hey, Name's John. 15 years old.
I've been writing quite a bit here and there sometimes for fun mostly for school. I enjoy writing poems such as haikus and other fictional short stories. I'm weak when it comes to essays and stuff.
For other hobbies I play video games (Xbox 360) and read manga.

Hello. My name is nsearchof. I'm 19 and currently in college. My major is Liberal Arts with a focus on English.

I'd say I started writing seriously in 9th grade, though I've kept a journal since I was 10. I really don't have a preference on what I like to write best. I like everything, though I really like exploring the 'magic' in everyday life. I also like to write from obscure perspectives.

Unfortunately I don't really consider most of the things I do in my spare time hobbies. Perhaps, overall, I like to spend my time doing anything creative. I've worked in all the realms of art, from animation to singing, but really my true love is writing. So glad I'm a part of this guild.

Hello all! You may call me Wikked Willow, Wikked, Willow, WW or hey you! I would prefer to not state my age, but teen-aged should suffice. I have been writing since I was nine when I wrote a Harry Potter fanfiction/comic. I love writing stories with action and romance with a fantasy/mythological twist. My characters often have wit and a personality that makes the reader want to make love to them or shoot them. I also love to write poetry that expresses my feelings; it is usually dark and depressing because I only write when I'm feeling strong emotions. Lastly my hobbies include writing, drawing, playing girls fastpitch softball, watching the SF Giants baseball team, playing video-games and other things that I can't think about.
