Hello Everyone

[tonic]

Hmm,

Well I think I should have said hello before I posted, but I guess I will say it now. Hi everyone, I've looked around and it seems that a lot of you are old...or let me rephrase that, older then me. I am only 16 but hey people say I act mature for my age.

I dunno I read fantasy of course and I am interested in history though I will have to wait next year to learn Ancient Civilizations. I also write but I started only about two weeks ago and things seem to be coming along nicely. Oh and thanks to those who have already posted suggestions for the improvement of my story. I am continously writing an am at chapter 5, those who want to read it just pm me and ill send what I have over...It feels great when someone edits my stuff, whether they are bad comments or good but hey it's up to you guys

See yah around,

Welcome, Tonic, from an old man (all of 26)! *Hobbles way leaning on his walker*

Keep at the writing, and I'm glad you've found our feedback useful!

Hello Tonic! I thought it's about time I started saying hello to the new members, even though it feels like I haven't been around that long myself. Time goes by much faster when your old. I'm not quite as much of a dinosaur as knivesout. I still have a couple of years until I'm walker worthy.

I'm glad you like to post your writing. I love to read other members work. That's one of my favorite parts of this forum.

Hi tonic, and an official welcome to the chronicles-network.

As for reading ancient history - pah! you don't need to wait! Check out those bookstores that sell off surplus publishing stock cheaply. We've got a couple here in Hull so I figure they can't be rare. My first exploration of the ancient world was spent in these bookshops, spending £5-10 a time on big glossy photograph-rich volumes on the ancient world. After those I was able to chase down specific periods and authors that I thought would interest myself most. So what are you waiting for?

Just in case you're interested, I posted some specific book recommendations for researching the ancient world in this thread:

Hi tonic . I'm kinda new here too. If knivesout needs a walker, then I need to be pushed around in a wheel chair !

Hiya Tonic! Welcome to the forums. If knivesout is using a walker then I must be bed-ridden and on life support! I feel that way sometimes too! My latest birthday was a milestone I would have preferred to delay...alas, time waits for no woman...

As far as writing goes, the more critiques you get, the more your writing will improve. I believe LittleMiss has posted some guidelines now for critiques from and for our members here so make sure to take a peek at those as well. Also, reading others' works and noting the things you like and don't and need more info on will help you as well as the author - so don't hesitate to put in your two cents.
