Teens Writing for Teens, issue 6

So how is everyone's writing?

Congrats Thalia!

And as far as writing goes, it's been slow, but I've been focusing on betaing more than writing recently. That's probably just an excuse I keep telling myself to not have to focus on the issues my WIP has, but it's true.

How about y'all?

I don't even have a WIP at the moment. Though I'm not intending to start anything new until the semester is over.

As of today, school is officially over! Wooooo~!

Hang in there guys, you're almost free!

Hi everyone! I hope you don't mind that I'm wandering into this thread haha. I'm also a college student writing YA

Of course not, Alex. It's been very quiet around here. I'm HR, also a college student writing YA. Welcome to TWFT.

We don't mind at all, Alex. Welcome to our little quiet corner of the forum

Thanks guys What kinds of YA do you all write? I prefer to dabble in fantasy and magical realism.

I dabble in pretty much everything. My last one was fantasy but the next one I'm going to revise is contemporary.

*pokes head in* ...Anybody miss me?

BG!!!!

Hello everyone, don't know who's still here or who remembers me at all, but this is me hopefully (pretty sure about it) returning to the world of writing.

I'll be rewriting Tormentor since I lost most of my manuscript through a virus which ultimately led to me abandoning writing for the last 2-3 years. I'll be sure to backup every night from now on! Haha.

I must say I've missed writing immensely and I've missed all of you guys' positive yet criticizing feedback about my feeble attempts at it

So yeah, this is me telling you that you'll be seeing more of me from now on and hope you accept me back with open arms seeing as I am somewhat of a deserter!

Feels good to be back

Hey, Tally. How are things going? I seem to remember reading you were going to self-publish MAAH; how's that stuff going?

STATIC. Of course I remember you and you're welcome back.

Ahhh! Tally! BG! I miss you all!


Tally, I was dead-set on going to New York. I got accepted into Eugene Lang, but I just can't afford it. So I'm going to go to Oregon.

Hello to all the people I haven't met before

I'M OUT OF CLASSSSSSSSSESSSSSSSSSSSS YEA

still have exams but HELL YEAH

Yayyy Tally! It's finals week for me right now.

Good luck guys!

I have one final to go. One more day. And am I studying for it? Nope. I'm working on AM revisions instead.

Yes, Mad As A Hatter stuff is happening... very fast. I'm working on a blog post to cover everything that's going on, but MAAH is due... really soon. I haven't even officially announced it on Twitter yet, which is a big deal for me, but I'm so glad I chose to self-publish because this process has been great (though I can't really speak until after it goes on sale I suppose).

I'm also in the midst of finals mania! Good luck to everyone else

Hey guys!

I just made my official MAAH announcement yesterday, and it's super exciting! It's on my blog.

If you guys want to check out my Facebook Page, as well, that would be amazing. I'm going to be revealing the cover art later today!

(note: this is basically the extent of anything remotely like marketing i'm gonna do here, and it's just because a lot of the people here have known me and MAAH for literally years. i'm not trying to be annoying but let me know if I am.)

That's fantastic, Tally. I wish you the best of luck

That is really awesome, Tally. I love the cover!
