Hey, folks! Figured that, with a new forum, it's time for a new start, so I'm actually going to attempt to be somewhat active and have a den. Bear with me, as I've never had my own den before, but what the hey? Why not try?
Anyways, you can call me Tuesday or Tues (or even Arrow/Arrie, if you remember my oldest SN!), and I'd really appreciate if you use she/her pronouns for me. I'm 18 (19 next month, oh boy), and I'm a longtime WCF member. I joined in December of 2009, went AWOL for a short while because 12 y/o me was afraid I would get in trouble if my parents knew I signed up without permission, and then returned as ivystarofvineclan in approx. 2011 or so. That username became ΦΦ
ΚΚΙΚΦΣΚ when I realized just how terrible that first name was. After that, I returned to the first account under the name »» Ξ±ΡΡΟΟ Β«Β«, which then became α΄α΄α΄sα΄
α΄Κ. It's been one heck of a journey over the last few years.
Some of the topics I'm most famous for include How the Mighty Fall, my fanfiction trilogy, the first book of which was recently completed; Tuesday Challenges, the weekly prompt challenge that began last year; a Name the Apprentice and Name That Warrior thread each, along with a Name Rater; and way, way back, I ran a thread for my terrible Pokemon fanfic, Sibling Rivalry. We don't talk about that fic.
Nowadays, I still write lots of fanfic (all my Warriors fic can be found here!), and I work on original stuff as well. I won NaNoWriMo in 2015, and participated in Camp NaNo July 2016, though with perhaps a little less success than I would like. Regardless, I do a lot of writing, largely fantasy, often involving dragons or mermaids. Pirates occur frequently, too. Beyond that, I adore watching cartoons, and love Voltron: Legendary Defender, Miraculous Ladybug, and others. I'm also a huge fan of Susan Dennard's Truthwitch series, and I thoroughly enjoy Libba Bray's Diviners series.
Beyond that, I suppose the only other important info is that I love rabbits (I have three; two Dutches and one Netherland dwarf), I'm currently learning Latin, and soon, I'm going to begin learning Ancient Greek. Also, I've been a Pokemon fan my entire life. You can always talk to me about Pokemon.

I've actually just finished the first book of Diviners a few weeks ago, ironically enough. I won't deny I pulled it off the shelf almost exclusively based on the cover, but I'm glad I did. I'm usually not too too into historical fiction/fantasy, but that one was actually pretty good. Is there any more of the series out, or just the first one? I didn't check yet rip.

I think I usually steer away from historical because while authors usually do their homework on the time period, as a reader you can tell they're a modern writer only reflecting in the past. It's a bit unsettling and unimmersive for me. But I have to say, two of my favorite shorts are historical, so I can't say that's true for everything!
I really like the characters in that one. Especially Sam (I think that was his name? ahhh I read too many books). The fantasy aspect was awesome too. I'll have to look for it !!

brownie - it really depends on the author, especially when it comes to the slang. bray seems very on top of being immersed in the world and time. sam!! sam, my trickster son. i love that boy. theta, too. theta is my ultimate favorite. stealth - heya!

@tues true, true. I've read historical with modern slang/diction and it's really just bad. Ahhh Theta was awesome. I loved her backstory -- well hated it, but loved it as a writer. She was such a strong character and you don't even realize that until the end after you've been judging her. </3

Yeah it's going to be pretty weird without it. And I've only had an account there for a year so I can't imagine what it would be like for people who have been there for years.

sam - true, true. pete - cx i like it so far, but i like paranormally stuff. and you're right, it's definitely a meme lol oh no!! i hate that kind of thing. can you use a notebook instead? maybe with a book nearby to make it look like summer work or something? that sometimes eases things.

I can barely read it sometimes, and I try to make it better but... it never works oops oh well, hopefully I can find a solution to this predicament soon ; ;

sam - not at all, sorry. don't care for games of that sort since i'm not big on much but pokemon + puzzle games, not to mention i have no way to play it. none of the relevant consoles and my computer isn't strong enough to run a game.
pete - ooh, good, because i just made it up. my specialty: wordsmithery
omg pete no (three words in that sentence; you know what that means)
ah, that's fair. can't say i'm in that boat because i have tiny and neat writing (oops), but you have my sympathies!
hopefully! ^^
tate - yeah, i can't say i recognize you, but nice to meet you! and thanks. cx always cool to talk to someone new, and i'm definitely happy to be here. been on the wcf a long time.
