Hi, Gwen! I thought I'd replied, but I guess not. You're new, right? So welcome to the Chatterbox! I'm a bookworm and writing person too, as are most of the people here. I hope you'll stay!

Hey, I am a huge reader and I have written a ton of short stories. I just finished a story about a lioness named Zo who is injured and taken into the zoo to recover and open a new exhibit. Zo has a hard time getting used to the hospital volunteer, Jack. Jack is not close with his dad but Zo brings them together again. Happy reading and writing!

P.S. What is your story about? I could help u think of a title if you want. :)

Yes, if they want to.

Welcome, Gwen! I am the uber-weird, slightly-scary, banana-obsessed freak of nature, but you can call me Koffee :D:D:D:D. You should post the story on here, or at least tell us what it's about so we can help you think of a title. Anyway, got to fly!

*runs of to devour 2 and 1/2 dozen bunches of bananas* *spends the rest of the night lying next to the toilet, muttering to myself "must not eat the green ones, must not eat the green ones"* *pukes a couple times and goes to bed* *where I puke again* *wakes up feeling great, wanders back here, hits submit* :D:D:D:D *submits*

Um, Koffee, I think that sometimes there's a reason new people don't want to come back after you've commented on their thread...  :D

Hi, Gwen, and welcome to Chatterbox - the online world of slightly insane but extremely nice readers/and writers who receive Cricket magazine. If you like reading and writing, you'll fit right in here. Congrats on finishing a first draft! I applaud you, as almost zero of my stories get farther than the first half. You don't have to, but if you'd like critique or comments on your story (or even a title), you might consider posting some of it here. Even if you don't, good luck!

I know you're hearing this a lot, but good job finishing you first draft! I almost NEVER finish my stories! Good ideas in my head seem to be hard to put onto paper...
