Hello! I'm a newbie queer writer/graphic designer

Hey, how's it going? I'm Rita, I also go by C.R. on other places of the internets. Pleased to meet all of you! I'm a Graphic Designer who writes sci-fi, some horror and some romance on the side. I'm primarily looking for a community to help me craft my work, bounce ideas off of, and of course, to keep me accountable. So far, I've only written a couple super short stories, as I've been busy with work, but I'm hoping to use this winter to carve some more time.

Thanks again!
Rita

 

Hi Rita! Red Margarita. (I like the username.)

I'm one of the forum moderators, and I want to welcome you to the forum.

You'll find lots of interest in the topics you favour. In fact sci-fi and horror are two of our most popular genres (knocking elbows with fantasy, which is probably our MOST popular genre.) However, if you take a look at our current short story contest (and yes, you can vote on the current entries—please do!) you'll discover that 'horror' is probably the way to describe the genre of this particular contest. You can plan to enter one of the contests yourself when you feel ready to do so.

I am sending you a PM (conversation) regarding one particular issue. But in the meantime...

Please take a look at these two important links. They will help you get started, give you an idea of how we operate, and what we allow and don't allow. And what we have to offer.

And here's another link I find helpful. It's a site map, which links to all areas of the forum, and can be simpler to use than the menu/submenu tabs at the top of our pages.

I look forward to getting to know you, and hope you enjoy getting to know us. Take your time getting settled, and if you encounter any difficulties, feel free to contact me and I'll do what I can to help.

Cheers for now,
Jan
