Samboyd93 Posted March 28, 2009 Posted March 28, 2009 Hello my name is Sam. I am fifteen. Lets get the first fact strait. I am a bookworm. Furthermore, I am an aspiring author so look forward to seeing some of my works if you are allowed to post them here. I am currently reading 'The Girl Who Love Tom Gordon' by Stephen King and though I am not yet an extent of the way in I already find the book gripping and amazingly wrote - It is the first Stephen King book I have read, and I got into tracking his works down after watching the films; 'The Green Mile,' and 'The Shawshank Redemption.' I found this site, and it looked fairly active and as such I thought it looked like a nice little community to discuss different books with my fellow readers, therefore I bid you all a greetings.

Lucybird Posted March 28, 2009 Posted March 28, 2009 Hia Sam, You say you are reading Stephen King, so do you generally like those types of books Quote
Samboyd93 Posted March 28, 2009 Author Posted March 28, 2009 Well the book I am reading is infact the first Stephen King novel I have wrapped my hands around, and from my first impression his works seem like the type in which will go down in history - like Lord of the Rings. Quote
Heather Posted March 28, 2009 Posted March 28, 2009 Hello Sam to the the forum where you will have lots of fun and make many new friends Quote
BookJumper Posted March 28, 2009 Posted March 28, 2009 Hello Sam, and welcome. Indeed, you can post your work on here - there's a nice little specific section called "Writer's Corner" for precisely that purpose ! Everyone's very nice and willing to contribute thoughts and support, that (and talking books) is what we're here for. Steven King has indeed written some modern classics; especially his earlier stuff I'd suggest looking into when you finish "Tom Gordon" - for further pointers, refer to the dedicated thread in the "Horror/Supernatural/Fantasy/Sci-Fi" section. As you can see, we're organised. And helpful and lovely. Quote
