Ever since I was around the height a Great Dane in a set of “pleasure pumps” (as my wholesome friend, Debbie, would call them. This was part of her effort to avoid saying anything that may taint the ears of your average loud and chatty 7-year-old boy and ergo all those in a ¼ mile radius. After all, explaining that “pleasure pumps” are shoes that make certain people happy goes over much smoother than awkwardly discussing the phrase “stripper heels.”), I have always had a passion for writing. Problem is, I’ve scarcely been close to anyone else who does.

So this is why I’ve come here. I hope to meet and talk with some wonderful people with a similar love for writing and all the ooey-gooey stuff that goes with that. :) So hello, salutations, hola, bonjour—whatever greeting meets your fancy. :)

Oh, and you can call me Alysha.

Welcome, even though most of what has been said is totally foreign to me. Just the fact that you enjoy writing and want to share with other writers means you get a big 'hullo' from me.

Hey! Welcome to the AW cooler! :hi:

We are a friendly bunch and you should be able to find anything you are interested in here. And don’t worry about Jed, the newbie Mod. He looks fierce but he is really a big green softy…well a kinda lumpy softy. It is from all those bruises from pokes with sticks…:e2poke:
Anyway, Welcome and make yourself at home. We tend to party a lot around here, hope you like to dance....

:PartySmil


PS- if you are looking for fun places to start exploring these are my personal favorites:

Jed's Super-Dooper Newbie 'Traditional Irish Pub' and Pink Flamingo Emporium

Greetings and welcome to the watercooler :welcome:

I think you'll fit in nicely here. It gets a bit crazy sometimes, but who doesn't like crazy? :D Don't forget to read the newbie guide, which is in a sticky thread at the top of the Newbie Forum. If you have any problems you can PM (private message) me and I'll see if I can help, or you can post in the Super-Dooper Newbie 'Ask the Mod' thread at the top of the newbie forum.

To find out about the various buttons and icons, and also about rep points, how to PM (private message) members, custom avatars and a whole host of other useful stuff, check out Cathy_C's thread, which is also stickied at the top of the Newbie forum, Next on our tour, if you'll look to the left, you'll notice...

And for fun, we have the terrific Newbie Question of the Day thread. Pop in and have a go at answering a few of the really easy questions (the link is in the sig line below). They are easy. Yep, they are. And it's so much fun.

Oh, and do you like double choc-chip cookies? :D
