Well I've been wanting to introduce myself but I haven't been exactly sure what to put, but here it goes.

I'm homeschooled and have been for almost as long as I can remember. I love the country and one day hope my family can find somewhere stable to live. Since I was 11 I've moved six times, including living in a tree house and now a camper. (It's a long story.)

I love writing, but I especially love fantasy. I don't know what it is exactly. Perhaps its the excitement and adventure.

I also love to go hiking, exploring, swimming, and drawing. Oh, I almost forgot - and having invisible sword fights when no one is looking. :D

Oh, it was... for the first week. It can get boring really fast. Trust me! :)

Hi Celestria!

It sounds like you've lead an adventurous life. I've moved a lot (Dad is Army) but I've never lived in a treehouse.

But anyway, I'm looking forward to reading your posts and meeting your characters.

Welcome, my friend!

Welcome, Celelstria! First, I have to say that I absolutely adore your name! It makes me think of stars. Second, I just have to ask, when you lived in the treehouse, did you have trouble with nature (i.e. bugs, squirrels, etc.)?

Welcome to the forum!!!
Living in treehouse sounds exciting! But I can see it getting boring after a while... How big was it?

Yes, Elestar! Bug's were a huge problem, especially mosquitoes. We didn't have any trouble with squirrels or any larger animals, but after it rained snails would come out and occasionally drop from the trees. :shock: (I was NOT happy with that at all.)

As for how big it was, it was a two story treehouse, with a tarp structure on the top and a small shed on the bottom deck. Here's a picture of it so you can see. (This was taken a while after we moved out so its a little run down.)

That's kind of cool... I don't think I'd want to live there for an extended period of time, but it's still neat looking! :)

Yuck! That's the one part of life that rarely gets mentioned in fantasy; the bugs that live in trees (there are only giant spiders and invisible biting flies). Still, it looks really cool in the photos! Is that you in the second one?

I'm afraid to say I don't have any brothers or sisters. But I do have a dad who can be a real goofball sometimes. :D

Invisible archery, heh? That's talented! I'm working on my archery skills, but I'm afraid I'm not that good at it... yet.
