Hey,
I must say that I am delighted I found this site.  I just picked up three much needed books for some lazy reading at the weekend yesterday and I have read two of the codex alera already and am on the third, absolutely and totally hooked!  I decided, I must check this guy out, Jim Butcher, and looked him up and saw that not only is he a talented writer but he actually cares for the (hopefully) up and comers as well!!  A rare find!  ;)

I am a writer before I am anything and I do everything with the aim of giving myself the time and the space to write.  I worked on a ship,(week on/week off) I lived on the dole (everyday off)  and now I am in my fourth year of teacher training (just so I can get the three months off every summer to write!)  I have finished one book which I have never shown anyone in entirety and is sitting on an old laptop that will no longer turn on!  I write short stories and poetry and enter every competition I hear of - and won a few too!  (Yes, I know, I am also annoyingly enthusiastic)  But on the bright side, knowing that this site is in existence has put a smile on my face in the middle of teaching practice and may I say - that in itself is a feat of epic proportions.

Anyway, I really couldn't contain myself, so good luck to you all, and hopefully we can spur each other on to grand heights in the future!

xxxxxx
