After a pleasant three years of reading but never putting any of my own thoughts in... I've joined up.

So... Hi.

[Wave]

About me...

I'm 16. Writing is my fiery passion. I'm finding I like computer programming (but I'm somewhat limited to very very very basic java). Most of my time is dedicated to reading and gaming. Favorite books are The Ender/Shadow Quartets, Alvin Maker series, anything with Drizzt in it, some of Dean Koontz stuff, and a few of Stephen King's books. I have more of a preference for Sci-fi and fantasy, but occasionally I branch off into other genres.

So once again: Hi!

Welcome to Hatrack! What made you decide to stop lurking and sign up?

Hello Mr. Orion! [Wave]

Posted by Endless Orion (Member # 11017) on :

Hmmm...

I'm not completely sure. I'm thinking it was a combination of feeling very social and happening to mouse over the register button. It called out to me...

We're glad you deemed the community worthy of the effort. [Wink]

Welcome to hatrack.

Welcome to Hatrack, Onion.

Posted by Endless Orion (Member # 11017) on :

But of course, why would I not choose Hatrack, what with its army of incredibly intelligent denizens and what not. [Big Grin]

Posted by ketchupqueen (Member # 6877) on :

Oooh, nice brown-nosing.

You know that it's traditional to serve us all virtual cake and such when you join, right? [Razz]

Posted by Endless Orion (Member # 11017) on :

Ohh... virtual cake...

I'm not so good with the baking stuff.

Would you like a virtual omelet? That I can do!

*hands out virtual pie*

Take that cake lovers.

Posted by Ivygirl1937 (Member # 10918) on :

I like pie!! [Smile]

Oh, and welcome, Orion!!! [Big Grin]

Lots of lurkers coming out of the shadows lately.

Welcome to the 'rack Orion.

I prefer banana cream pie, and I'll accept delivery at any time. [Smile]

Even lurkers need sunlight every once in a while.

If you haven't got your health, you haven't got anything. [Smile]

welcome to the light. ive been a member for almost 8 years and i dont really have that many posts to show for it. so nothing wrong with just checking up one what ppl have to say. Ender and drizzt, lol. two great characters. looking forward to seeing you add your two cents in more threads.

Welcome Orion and Taleswapper!

What type of stuff do you write, Orion?

Posted by Primal Curve (Member # 3587) on :

Men in Black fan fiction?

(probably too obscure to be funny)

Posted by Endless Orion (Member # 11017) on :

My computer is littered with loads of eveything. I guess most of the stuff I write is more of modern fantasy stuff. I had a lot of poetry like stuff, but I haven't actually written any for about two years.

And then, Pie it is! I'll be back with that shortly [Big Grin]

Posted by Uprooted (Member # 8353) on :

Hi Orion, and welcome! (I also thought your name said "Endless Onion" when I first saw it.)

Mmm, pie.

Posted by TaIeswapper (Member # 7911) on :

This screen name may be a "lurker", but I'm most certainly not. [Smile]

Orion is my favorite constellation!

Do you know the TMBG song about you? "Just a guy made of dots and lines" <notes>

Welcome! Glad you decided to post. Oh, and I'll have one of those virtual omelets, please! mmMmmmMMMMmMMmMMm omelets! [Smile]

Posted by krynn (Member # 524) on :

LOL @ the MIB joke. "The galaxy is in Orion's belt"

Posted by Endless Orion (Member # 11017) on :

Well, after hearing of this song, I headed over to google (even though my google skills leave much to be desired) and found said song.

That's the first time I've listened to TMBG. I do believe I like them.

And...
