Just recently joined. I write YA (Contemporary, Supernatural Suspense, Humor, etc.), but I've also written MG. Looking forward to being with likeminded writers. Woot! Woot!

It's wonderful to have you here, Deborah! So glad to hear you write MG as well as YA. Make sure join our MG Lair group, where we discuss all that's middle grade! ;D

I'm Jacqueline (J, JQ, Jackie, whatever). I write paranormal and various forms of fantasy YAs. I've heard of this place a couple of times over at AW's Water Cooler and decided to finally come join :)
I'm excited about a place dedicated to YA books and writers and I hope to learn a lot here.

It's great to have you here, JQ! Browse our site and join our groups. If you need anything, just give a shout. ;D

So, I've been a member for a while, but I'm only just now deciding to come out of hiding to say hello and attempt to mingle with fellow YA writers. I'm a bit on the shy side, so you'll have to excuse me. A tiny bit about me--I'm obsessed with Doctor Who and the Hunger Games. Also, I really like cats and board games. So, um, yeah. Looking forward to getting to know more people!

It's good to come out and say hi. Really. We do not bite. And we do love YA writers. Really. How could we not? Cats are good. So are board games. See? We have things in common. So glad you posted here. Welcome.

My name is Mere, and I have recently joined! I write YA (fantasy so far, but I'm really interested in the possibility of horror), and I am thrilled to have found this place!

Great to meet you, Mere. Welcome. Glad you found this place, too.
