I'm Sarah (aka Dark n Stormy), long time listener, first time caller, here to pull myself out of my writer's rut and finally start making some dreams come true...hopefully.

I'm from Melbourne Australia (well at least for the last 3 weeks) and I am currently experiencing minor anxiety attacks over having half my written work thrown out in the move. ('Ok breath Sarah, breath').

I love a bit of micro fiction and coming up with opening lines (and discovering new ones  so if you have any show me the way!) However it's time I sunk my teeth into my first novel which has been a WIP for way too long and either needs to be ressurected or transmogrified. Or something.

Wouldn't mind trying to get that damn screenplay finished as well.

Regardless, I just thought I'd say a quick hello - "Hello!" and I look forward to getting to know you all.

Let the fun begin. :)

Hey everyone, thankyou!!!

@Chacron. You need to get your hands on the book it's great. Came highly recommended to me and I pass on the recommendation. :)

@Olivia  - my book? Basically -

In a town known for it's morbid past, it is revealed that the dark secrets Scar's family has tried years to conceal, are intertwined with the town's sinister history in such a way that they may haunt her forever.

(I may need to work on that!!!)
