Author In Progress
Vox Arcana:
Hello!
My name's Kristen. Started writing when I was in junior high, but it was pretty much all crap until I took a "Craft of Writing Fiction" class in college. I've never really thought about trying to get any of my stuff published; it's just one of my creative outlets to keep the snarky, sarcastic side of my personality in line.
So yeah. I'm a big geek. Hi.
Craz:
Well, introductions:
My name's Justen, and I was an alchol-wait, wrong introduction. Let's do this again.
My name's Justen, and I am a writer. I've been doing this since the seventh grade (a remarkable four years). I live in San Jose, California, and currently attend a high school which currently shall go nameless. I try to write Star Trek, but urban fantasy also deeply captures my interest. I would say enthralled, but I don't want to inseminate the idea that any dark wizardry was involved. I'm seventeen years old, and my first story was just actually finished last week (at a disparaging 6,210 words). However, story number two of that series and number one of my fantasy series are in the works.
To get myself by in life, I work as a librarian's aide for the Edenvale Branch of the San Jose Pubic Library, and I also proof-read my mother's writing (It runs in the family. My mother's a writer on womens' subjects).

Hey all, my name is PJ Lyon
Sadly an author-in-waiting as I like to put it.
I'm currently finishing up two novels in a series about a London based Albino vampire who runs a nightclub (polishing). One straight ahead mystery series about a Columbo-like Hollywood gossip journalist called Joe Luna, who keeps stumbling across dead bodies (polishing and rewriting the last few chapters).
My latest project is here http://www.fictionmonster.com/lazarine
I'm posting it chapter by chapter as I write, and using NaNoWriMo as a motivator to get it done. It's a cataclysmic tale of ancient evils that trigger a war of undead across America.
I studied English and got a Masters degree a few years back (absolutely useless in the real world). Other than that I worked for a brief period as a teacher, and for the last six years I worked in the IT field as an indentured slave (technician) until I went 'Hulk' a few weeks ago with my boss and quit. Hey, you've got to take a leap at some point, right?
In any case, glad to be here in good company, and any tips you have before I embark on the agent merry-go-round I'd be glad to have 'em.
PJ
