Hi, my name is Ruby!

I am working on my first novel, a romance/adventure in the spirit of 'Romancing the Stone'.

Nice to meet everyone.

Thanks for the welcome! Sorry, while I love the smell, I could never get used to the taste. I do have tea, however.

Welcome Ruby.

Subject: Re: Hello Fri Mar 19, 2010 11:58 pm

Ah, "Romancing the Darjeeling"

Welcome Ruby.

By the way, are you a secret agent from another site trying to infiltrate and destroy the way of life here?
Sorry, but we have to ask.

Hi Ruby,

Welcome to the forum!

Subject: Re: Hello Sat Mar 20, 2010 2:54 pm

Thanks for the welcome Abe, Lin and Shelagh.

Lin,
I am not sure what you mean a secret agent, I joined this forum because I am hoping to find a community of writers I can learn from as I work on my first novel. Although I am sure you are playing some kind of joke on me ... sorry to be so dense! Smile

I am looking forward to getting to know everyone.

No dense involved, Ruby. It was a kind of inside joke (I apologize) and not aimed at you. I'm just here for the fun of it, myself.

Subject: Re: Hello Sat Mar 20, 2010 3:46 pm

Hi Ruby! Welcome to the forum! There's a lot of good information on these boards. Looking forward to hearing more about you and your novel.

Thank you Helen. I personally am pretty boring, but I am doing my best to ensure that my writing isn't, lol.

I am polishing up the first draft, maybe I will share some of it when I get a little more courage.

Ruby,

You're a writer, so you can't be boring--you've always got something to say. We look forward to hearing more about your book!

Where are you from?

Subject: Re: Hello Sun Mar 21, 2010 5:22 pm

Thanks Helen. Smile

I am from the Buffalo, New York area, a very beautiful area if I may say so.

Hello Ruby..

I'm a fellow New Yorker, from the big Apple.
I now live in Santa Fe, NM....Looking forward to
moving back , maybe upstate New York. One of my
sister-in-laws used to live in Buffalo for 12 years,
she moved to NJ because her Asthma was getting
worse. I'm an author of four published books...
Welcome aboard....

Cheers..Joe

Hi Joe. The Big Apple is a long trek from Buffalo but fun nonetheless.

I hope you don't take offense, but this is the first time I heard that someone moved away from Buffalo because of asthma. The usual complaint is too much snow! Smile

Ruby

Subject: Re: Hello Sun Mar 21, 2010 9:43 pm

To Lin - sorry for the delay in responding, I meant to earlier. No worries, I am sure I will become privy to the inside jokes as time goes on. Smile

I am spending most of my time reading old threads and getting to know folks.
