Chatterbox: Down to Earth

Hey everyone, I’m

Hey everyone, I’m Cruciverbalist! I’ve been on the CB for a while and have been meaning to post something, but I didn’t get around to it until now. I love creative writing in all forms though I mostly write poetry and short stories that I never finish. I also love to read, listen to music (some of my favorite artists are Christina Perri and Taylor Swift), play the guitar, and play board games. And hence my name (which means crossword enthusiast), I love to do the New York Times’s crosswords. I also have a small dog. My pronouns are she/her. I’m really excited to join the Chatterbox! (:

Hello and welcome to the CB! I'm Flamarestii, she/her, and I love writing, reading, and almost every animal on the planet except maybe mosquitoes and spiders. I also rarely finish my stories (actually, most of the time I don't even get around to writing them at all, which I really should!) When I visited my grandparents this summer I did all the crosswords in their newspaper, which was surprisingly really fun! See you around!

Hi Flamarestii! It's so nice to meet you, and that's so cool that you did crosswords at your grandparents'! I haven't done any crosswords on paper yet, but I've been meaning to try it. (:

Welcome, Cruciverbalist! I love your name, I did not know that word existed, but I love words that are weirdly specific like that.

I'm Lupine, I've been on the CB for *mathing* a little over three years, and I also really enjoy creative writing! (You'll find that a lot of CBers do--hop on over to Inkwell to share some of yours! I'd love to read your poems.) I play a little guitar, but I'm not very good at it yet--how long have you been playing?

I'll look forward to reading your posts!

Hi Lupine, sorry I just saw this! I'm not that great at guitar either—I've only been playing for a year and a half...it's fun though! It's great to meet you, read you around!
