*sneak sneak* Hello!
Hello everyone!

I just stumbled onto your forum here and wanted to introduce myself. Looks like a wonderful resource!

I'm a technical writer by trade and a fiction writer by preference. I read as much as I can get my hands on (and have time for!).

Looking forward to talking with you all.

Hi Mel, and welcome to MobileRead.

Nice diverse crowd here. I took a quick look at your blog, but I don't have time to read through it all at the moment. Just one question, "Are we there yet?".

Wetdogeared.

Welcome to MobileRead, Mel!

I used to be a technical writer but gave it up to be a MOM! Anyway, I am sure you will have a great time here at MR and find a lot of really interesting information.

Happy reading (and writing)!

Wow, thanks for the warm welcome, everyone!

Hi Nomesque! Thanks for the plug.

Hi Dreams. I don't have a device yet - I'm kinda low-tech when it comes to e-books. Just starting to poke around in those circles. I read lots of different stuff - crime, scifi, fantasy, anything with a good plot and grabbable characters. I write the fictional blog that Nomesque linked (and I'll go talk about that in the Writer's Corner, definitely ), along with a novel and a few other random pursuits.

Wetdogeared - Definitely getting close! Still lots to come, though.

Well, good on ya!! Another Ozzy!! Not that I'm one, I'm a New Mexican by birth, a Californian by preference and a Texan by cruel circumstance.

It's ok to be low tech here, there's still a lot to talk about. Pandas, llamas, dogs, cats, ducks ... and books, naturally, always books.

Welcome.

Thanks, Ricky! I'm not an Aussie by birth either (only been here just over a year). I'm from NZ originally, but spent most of my life in the UK. Just can't keep from spinning around the world, apparently.

And, y'know, I used to work for a panda....

Books are always good, though! I likes me some books.

Hee hee. I'm sorry!

I used to work for a company called Panda Software. Really not as interesting as the tease suggested, I'm afraid. Ain't that always the way? But there was a big stuffed panda involved. A big stuffed Spanish panda (the company's HQ is in Spain).

Apparently, the Spanish have a thing about pandas. I'm not sure why - never did unravel that.

But then, who doesn't love a big cuddly bearlike thing?
