Nemireth Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 Hi everyone! I'm Nemireth (roughly translates to "water jewel" in Sindarin...at least that's what my sister told me!) a.k.a. Twiggy. I've been on Neopets for 8 years total, I think I had deleted my old Neopets account when I was younger so I started a new one earlier this year. A lot has changed! I've also ventured around TDN for a while and haven't made an account until now. Mostly because of social anxiety :weird:. Anyways, what are you guys into? I love writing poetry, fantasy fiction, and sci-fi; I used to post some someplace online when I was younger (anybody heard of Figment?)

SidtheSnail Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 Hi welcome! I hope you enjoy your time here on TDN. If you have any questions please feel free to ask away (I always have a million questions on NP :P) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nemireth Posted December 9, 2015 Author Share Posted December 9, 2015 Thank you! I'll be sure to remember that Xd . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hert123 Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 Hey!Welcome to the Daily Neopets Forums! We're a very active (and friendly!) community here who loves to help eachother.

I'd love to see some of your writing :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LaLune Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 Hi, I'm really into writing, poetry and sci-fi too. Thank for brightening my day earlier. Welcome back to Neopets. Seems to be a mass return! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moga Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 Hey there, welcome to the forums! I don't think I've ever heard of Figment but I really like fantasy and sci-fi stories. Do you do fanfiction, original stories, or a mix of both? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nemireth Posted December 10, 2015 Author Share Posted December 10, 2015 No problem LaLune! :) Hi Moga! Figment is basically this website where people from anywhere post stories, poetry, prose, fanfic, you name it; your stuff can get rated and reviewed; there's tons of contests; and they have these cool mass chats where you can talk with an actual publisher or author. It's very cool! I write original stories; I'm working on a fantasy trilogy, another fantasy novel, a sci-fi novel, and two more possible fantasy series. The trilogy interlaps with my best friend's series; we even share a character. The sci-fi novel I'm co-writing with another friend; this one is actually based on a series of dreams both she and I had. And then maybe 34 poems? Yep, pretty all over the place o_O.

S_A Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 Holey shirt! I pretty much did the same thing. I was on until 2010, got hacked, and swore to never return...but I did lol. I was pretty protective and was a shameless creeper on boards and forums, but I feel like folks are nicer and less hacky? I actually have some poetry published in a creative arts magazine called Canto. It's sponsored by Kent State University. As you can tell by my gallery and other schtuffs, I am a big scifi fan as well.Welcome! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nemireth Posted December 10, 2015 Author Share Posted December 10, 2015 Yeah, I too feel like Figment's community has improved. The hacking bit sounds scary :sad01_anim:. Wow, that sounds really cool! I've never really worked up the courage to do anything like that. I almost did once in high school but backed out at the last second; I'm not really sure why.

Wow that's a lot of projects! I'll admit I'm much more a reader than I am a writer--once a scene's passed through my head I have a really hard time sitting down and actually writing what I've already imagined. Co-writing's always sounded really fun, though, since you know you have at least one super dedicated reader. :) Figment sounds like a really neat website; I'll have to check it out when I've got a chunk of free time to go browsing around.

life_eclectic Posted December 11, 2015 Share Posted December 11, 2015 Hi and welcome! I have social anxiety issues as well, so I can relate. I think you will have a nice time on here. As you have already seen, the people are really nice :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nemireth Posted December 12, 2015 Author Share Posted December 12, 2015 Co-writing really can be a lot of fun! It's also nice to have someone with you at every step of the writing process. And yes, everyone does seem very nice :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
