THE SWORD AND TOME discussion

A new year means a new thread.

Introduce yourself for the first time or re-introduce yourself for the hundredth time. Keep it classy and professional!

I'm new to this group (thanks for inviting me, Arisawe). I'm a book lover who love to read books (particularly fantasy), so hopefully, I get read as many books while I'm here. Not only am I bookworm, but I'm also an author. So I hope guys will make me feel at home. I'll be sure to be active as much as I can. :)

Nice getting to know you! I’m an author too! Hopefully we all can improve our craft here and help each other out.

Indeed :) Say, do we have any others in the group? Just a curiosity.

Hi everyone and thanks Arisawe for the invite. I’m a very introverted bookworm but I enjoy group reads in small groups. Of course, I love the fantasy genre and am not afraid to explore. I am NOT an author and not hoping to be one. I’ve tried and I just don’t have the brain for it. Unrelated, I’m a gamer and create gaming related video content. I also have a book reviewing blog though it’s been inactive for a while. Can’t wait to make new book friends!

Hi there! I’d gather a great many of us are introverted too lol. It comes with the territory so to speak. Sounds like you’re creative in a different way. Welcome!

Hi! My name is Mary, I'm from Ecuador, I'm learning English so be patient (I speak spanish) if I write something wrong. I love reading, I go everywhere with a book, I love writing my own opinion of what I've read, but I don't have a blog or things like that (I want to). I like spoilers, but if someone don't want them I keep my mouth shut.

Hi Mary! Nice to meet you! ☺️

Hey everyone! I’m Jessica and and I just joined this group today. I have always had a love of reading, writing and drawing. I was one of those kids who would read or draw at recess more than I would talk to other humans. My dream is to illustrate books for a living, so if you have any characters you’d like me to draw let me know. :) I do a lot of journal writing, but I’ve dabbled in creative writing, too. I recently discovered Brandon Sanderson’s novels and I’m trying to get through them all...so fantasy is my favorite. Oh, and I’m an introvert/INFJ.

Hello hello! My name's Amber, I'm new here! I don't do any writing myself, but I'm a librarian and I also work in a bookstore, so reading is obviously a huge part of my life! Fantasy is my favorite genre, but I love horror too ;) Nice to meet you all!

Hi All, thanks for starting this group. I love reading fantasy particularly humorous stuff. I am also a writer in this genre. I look forward to following the discussions.

Thanks!

Nicky

Hi Jessica, Amber and Nicky!

Looking forward to getting to know you guys too! Glad there’s so many of us that love this genre!

Welcome and happy to meet you all :)

Hi everyone and thank you Arisawe for the invite. I am Laura and I'm not a writer but I love to read. Fantasy in particular, but I won't say no to other genres either.
Looking forward to getting to know you all. :)

Nice to meet you. There are plenty of readers for sure. Even I am one. Looking forward to knowing each and everyone, especially you

Hello all! My name is Damian, and I just joined. Thanks for the invite, Arisawe! I love just about every genre, but I tend to lean Horror, High Fantasy, and Dark Fantasy. Looking forward to getting to know some of you, and discussing good fantasy reads!

Hi I am Bev previously a mod on a large fantasy group. I have been reading fantasy for about four decades. I am currently off from work for the summer and hoping to get through some books. Nice to meet you all.

Nice to meet you, too, Bev and Damian ^-^

Hi everyone I'm Kim, I'm from Wales and my fav genre is fantasy! :)

Greetings! My name is Colin, and I've just joined today.
Just graduated University, Engaged, and moved into a home.

Less time to read than I'd like, but getting back into it now that I'm getting used to the daily grind of adulting.

Very happy to be here :)

Hey guys! My name is Rachel and fantasy and sci-fi are my favorite genres to read. I am currently not reading as much as I would like to since I have a 6 1/2 month old Newfie puppy going through her teenager phase, but I am making up for it a little bit by listening to a lot of audiobooks on my long work commute as well as some at work.

Woah Colin lots are happening for you! Congratulations! So happy to have everyone here together! ☺️

Thanks so much!

Hi everyone! Anyone interested in choosing a book to read together to discuss? Have any nominations?

Just asking, can we make our thread if you want to do games that relates to fantasy?

Hi everyone. My name is James Maxstadt, and I'm a life-long avid reader of fantasy. Love to discover new books/authors that take me to a new place.

I've also taken to writing, and have been having a blast doing that as well.

Look forward to learning more about everyone.
