Bronwen Posted June 21, 2008 Posted June 21, 2008 Hello there, My name is Bronwen and I thought I'd join this forum because although I love writing, I don't have many friends that are writers. It'd be nice to meet some people who are similar to me and have perhaps gone through the publishing business before. I hope I can stay around and get to know some of you. Quote

Nici Posted June 21, 2008 Posted June 21, 2008 Hello and welcome! I have moved you over to the Introductions section. Quote
Bronwen Posted June 21, 2008 Author Posted June 21, 2008 Oh, thank you. I didn't see it at first, then I went to read what to do when you're a new member and realised I posted in the wrong place. This looks like quite a big forum, thanks for welcoming me. Quote
happyanddandy Posted June 21, 2008 Posted June 21, 2008 Hello Bronwen - I see you are reading the new Marian Keyes - I have my eye on that one Quote
Bronwen Posted June 21, 2008 Author Posted June 21, 2008 She's a great author... what do you think about people referring to women authors as authoresses? Someone did that to me the other day, is it the same as actresses being offended if they're not called actors? Do you think it's sexist? Quote
happyanddandy Posted June 21, 2008 Posted June 21, 2008 I haven't really thought about it - I don't think it is sexist - it's just a way of identifying male or female even though it may not be absolutely necessary Quote
Karen1 Posted June 22, 2008 Posted June 22, 2008 Welcome to the board Bronwen. I hope you have fun here. Quote
