megustaleer Posted April 4, 2017 Report Share Posted April 4, 2017 So, as the 'lost' introductions thread has been found and safely pinned into position in Central Library, I'd like to welcome you, Lexi - do explore the site for books (and other subjects) you'd like to discuss. Don't feel shy about resurrecting old and apparently dormant threads, we like to have more opinions added to wake up a discussion. If there's not a thread on a book, or a subject you are interested in feel free to start a thread of your own. Don't worry about making mistakes, or posting in the wrong forum, or starting a thread if you haven't found one on that subject that already exists - the moderating team can sort that out for you. Â Now we have put this thread back where it belongs I expect other members will soon be along to say 'Hi" Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Alodie Posted April 25, 2017 Report Share Posted April 25, 2017 Hello - thank you for the opportunity to introduce myself.   I had been wandering around the forum, trying to find the place for new members - glad I finally found it!  My name is Alodie and and am always looking for new authors to read. Sometimes I feel frustrated that they don't write as quickly as I read. (Then I started writing and realised why!!) I remember, as a child, being annoyed to hear that Arthur Ransome had died. I had been enjoying reading his books, and was upset that he wouldn't be writing any more. Oh, the selfishness of children!!!  I had spent a while working in mind-numbingly boring factories and killed the time by telling myself a good story. Now it's many, many years later, and I’ve started writing them down. My first real novel took the best part of a year to write. I just sat down at the computer and told myself chapter after chapter. That was the easy part!  The second story came out as a Radio play – I enjoyed listening to Radio 4 Saturday Night Theatre for years. But then I realised that no one buys radio plays, so I am converting it into a novel – a much harder job than I’d realised.  Aside from the novels, I enjoy embroidery and have produced a range of small e-Books of cross stitch patterns Quote Link to post Share on other sites
momac Posted April 27, 2017 Report Share Posted April 27, 2017 Hello Alodie and welcome. Â I like your name sort of sounds like Melody, musical sounding. I hope you find lots to interest you on the forum. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Alberto L Pupo Posted June 3, 2017 Report Share Posted June 3, 2017 Hello everyone! My name is Alberto Pupo, I am a married father of three crazy kids. I currently reside in Frederick Maryland. I am also an independent sci fi author who on occasion dabbles in writing horror novellas (only have one published thus far). All my works are available via Amazon all of the available on Kindle. Besides writing I am a voracious reader with a preference for science fiction, fantasy and horror although I will read pretty much anything else. I am glad to be a part of this forum and look forward to interacting with all of you. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lunababymoonchild Posted June 3, 2017 Report Share Posted June 3, 2017 Welcome to the Board, Alberto. Please continue to post on any thread that interests you (we never really finish with a topic and are always happy to carry on) and don't be afraid to create a new one if you can't find what you're looking for. Some of us like science fiction, fantasy and horror so you'll easily find someone to chat to.

Hazel P Posted December 11, 2017 Report Share Posted December 11, 2017 Hello everybody, My name is Hazel [nut by name & nut by nature!]. Having just joined BGO, I am trying to find my way around the site at the moment. I clicked on the link "Introduce yourself thread" in the beginner's guide but the page could not be found. By searching "Introduce yourself" I have found this thread. Hope I'm commenting in the right place. I am an avid book reader and look forward to contributing to discussions and reading other people's thoughts on the books they have read. I also collect modern first edition novels. Looking forward to getting to know you all. Best wishes, Hazel. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
megustaleer Posted December 11, 2017 Report Share Posted December 11, 2017 Welcome to BGO, Hazel. I have fixed the link to this thread from the "Welcome" page. Thank you for pointing out the problem. I hope you enjoy exploring the board and look forward to learning more about you and your taste in books. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

James Attwell Posted May 23, 2018 Report Share Posted May 23, 2018 (edited) Hi everybody, So I've just signed up to this forum, and I'd like to take a moment to introduce myself.  My name is James Attwell. I'm a frequent-reader-occasional-writer. I like books that have something something to say about society, even if they do so in a fictional setting. Some of my favourites include 'Animal farm' by George Orwell, 'The Lord of the Rings' by J R R Tolkien, and 'Brave new World' by Aldous Huxley....but that's just a few.  - James Attwell  Edited May 23, 2018 by James Attwell Quote Link to post Share on other sites

sasireader21 Posted June 12, 2018 Report Share Posted June 12, 2018 Ooh, I love Animal Farm! Orwell's representations of animals and farmers as specific political leaders and followers always has me in awe whenever I think about it! Welcome to BGO!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
itsmeagain Posted July 31, 2018 Report Share Posted July 31, 2018 Hi I am itsmeagain. I love reading, anything from travel, classics eg Dickens, true crime, the list goes on and on. Book Club forum is closing and I found this group. Hi.😂🤣 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
megustaleer Posted July 31, 2018 Report Share Posted July 31, 2018 Hi itsmeagain, good to have you join us here on BGO.  Sorry to hear that Book Club Forum is closing, I joined BCF in 2010, and am still a member, although I am embarrassed to confess that I have not posted there since the following spring. It was pretty busy here at that time, and this is where my loyalty lay having been a member from the start, so I faded out of several other forums. We have a small group of regular posters, but are more than happy to see discussion on old treads revived by new mwmbeers with fresh thoughts, so feel free to join in anywhere or, of course, to start your own topic. Take a little time to look around and find out how we work - the forums are organised differently to Book Club Forum, and may seem a bit quirky, but we have been going for a good many years, and this is how it has evolved. Looking forward to seeing more from you. megustaleer (moderator) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
itsmeagain Posted July 31, 2018 Report Share Posted July 31, 2018 Thanks very much Megustaleer.🤣 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
