Bonjour, everyone!

I'm no stranger to this site, as a quick google search some years ago helped me rid of an otherwise tantalizingly dull night. I've written many stories in my native language and even got published in our biggest womens magazine twice and won some small online contests. All be it, I'm still just writing anonymously (due to touchy subjects!) and as a hobby whilst pursuing my other interests. I finally made a user account now to go and check out this community, as I've never really been into one like this before. I have a few writer friends, but they're into quite different fields, so it's not exactly a fulfilling sharing experience.

I'm not sure I'm ever going to be able to write something personally fulfilling in english, but hey you never know. So I just came here to say HI WHATS UP GUYS and try and make conversation, perhaps even gain a few friends, but most of all maybe talk to someone likeminded, artistically, philosophically, sexually and humoristically. Is that even a word? I am absolutely positively for sure not looking for a hook-up. I've currently situated myself in the south french country side miles away from everything and everyone, simply to work and relax for a year. So internet will be good social relief at times :)

To mention a few things about me, I am a musician by profession and by heart, I love cheese, I never watch TV, I smoke weed on a semi-regular basis, I travel a lot, I don't like squishy bugs, I find fire extremely esthetically pleasing, I've never kissed a girl I didn't believe I loved for at least that moment, I listen mostly to jazz, classical, pretty much anything electronic, oldies and blues, and I've never eaten a snail nor do I ever intend to.

So Mesdames et Messieurs, maybe we'll see each other around. For now, I'll be lurking in the corners, enjoying everyones contributions.

Ciao! :)
 
You're not alone.

Welcome to the circus. :)

Welcome to the AH. Your English is better than some born to the language here.
 
Welcome to the madhouse that is the Authors' Hangout.

And if humoristically isn't a word, it should be!
 
Haha thanks! You're not the first one to say that. My sister was always very good with english, growing up, and I have a huge interest in language in general. My pronunciation is still pretty terrible though.

I can't hear your pronunciation on Lit, so as far as I'm concerned, your pronunciation is fantastic! ;)
 
If you can write erotica half as well as your first post, you'll have no trouble getting published on this site. I look forward to reading your work.

A welcome :kiss: for the little newbie from the good little witch.
 
Wilkommen, Mein Herr! (Elas! J'ai tromper la langue.) Bonjorno, Signore! (Je regret; j'essais encore.) Bienvenue au AH, quelqu'un guy francais. Ici, on trouve notre petit Charenton. Enjoy!
