Hi, so I'm not sure if there is a form or something that you can fill out as a new member but either way, here is my best shot of introducing myself. :)

My name is atlante - I came up with it long ago when I started on DA, some sim games and other forums...it's been so long I can't remember the language I picked it from, but it's a translation of atlas. :)

In real life, I'm 22yrs old. I train and show horses (on a small basis right now). A couple years ago (probably around 5-6 actually lol), I started a novel type story, I had written a little segment with one of the main characters and people read it and wanted to know more. From that I have countless papers mapping the entire story (basically), and have a couple excerpts from parts in the story - but for the past year or so, everything has been sitting while I've explored other things in life. Now, with the prompting of my sister (who is also on here), I have joined this forum in hope that I'll be able to complete my story. I have no ambition to be a writer lol just one of my hobbies that I enjoy doing, and it's nice to let my imagination run wild and create my own worlds (something I did a lot more when I was younger).

I also have written a couple short stories, and dabbled into a couple longer type stories...my short stories are the only things so far that I have completed lol. In addition to writing, I also play in photoshop doing manipulations (mostly of horses), I love photography and could live with a camera in my hand at all times.

I don't know if there is anything else I should put down...I could write a lot more lol, but I don't want to take up too much of your time if you've read this far. :)

Lol I had to look her name up, I can never remember how to spell it...but my little sis, Vilissë, is the one who talked me into joining. :)

And thanks, I love reading other people's work as well, so I might get lost on here for hours on end!

Aha! :D

We'd love it if you posted some of your work too. I'm a fan of reading other people's stories as well. We have good writers on here, so I'm almost always in a state of suspense. ;)

Welcome to Holy Worlds, Atlante!

You're so lucky to be around horses so often. :3 That is a dream that I must wait for in the meantime.

We're glad to have you! Vili has been great to be around on the forum with. :)

(My brother is the same way with photography. He just bought a professional camera and loves it.) ;)

Welcome again!

~Calen

P.S. You wrote a wonderful introduction. ^^

Welcome Atlante! We are very happy to have you join us on our fair forum.

Mel had better watch out! Villi and Evening are going to be rivaling her for her title before long ;)

Hello Atlante! Welcome to HW! I adore horses, and my sister is currently doing a horse care diploma. We are practically the same age, that is cool. It is nice to have you here.

Well, her brother is 4D over on HWSF, but he just joined over here on HWF as Welt, our newest member. So now 2 of Villi's siblings are over here. :D

Thanks for all the welcomes! :D

I was thrown for a loop too...unknown to me, Welt (my brother) also has joined lol, so I guess we are three siblings on the forum. :D

And I am really blessed to be able to work with my horses. :D Sometimes they weave their way into my stories lol!

I'm not surprised Vil has a distinguished career here, we're very proud of her and her brilliant mind-working talents! :D

Well, hi! We love sibling sets, and we also love reluctant writers that we can push and badger into finishing their stories... I mean, we like to encourage each other to write more. ;) Truly, you came to the right place! We're glad to have you here!

I like your username. :D

Hello and welcome, Atlante! :D

_________________
You have blue skin with orange polka dots. Four eyes, one red, one yellow, one green, and one blue. You have four arms, two are furry and two are scaly. One ear is a floppy dog's ear and the other is a pointy dog's ear. Your hair is a mess of tentacles. You have the body of a centaur, with four wings and two tails (both with feathers on the end). Two wings are pink. The other two are green and black, respectively. You have a row of sharp spines going down your back (very sharp). You also hiccup rainbow bubbles... ~Vili
So, now you all know what I look like.
