arctic nettles | introduction

There's no need for a personal introduction, no one will have stumbled onto this by accident. But a short introduction to content might be in order.

I can't remember a time when I didn't write, although I've seldom written more than sporadically. Unfortunately, delusions of grandeur combined with shyness have resulted in me keeping a lot of what I write to myself, with two consequences - most of what I write disappears in the inevitable computer crashes, and my writing only improves according to maturity, rather than by virtue of critique.

So I've decided to go for a place I can consecrate to creative writing, and I do hope you'll find the time to read at least some of it. The point of this is to get critique, so please do leave comments! You'll find extracts from my incomplete NanoWrimo 2007 novel, assorted poems and short stories and concepts from the lovely Jess' writing sessions.

If anyone wants publishing rights to this blog to put their own stuff up, drop me an email or Facebook me.

Love,

Emilie
