Post subject:  Hey everybody!
Well obviously I'm new here, so I'll just introduce myself and tell you all a little about me. As you can see, I'm SilvieOfSouthern and anybody who's ever read Ted Dekker's the Lost Books will know the reference I'm making with the username :) Yes, I am a huge Dekkie.
A little more about me: I love Jesus with everything I've got, and I'm at the best church on the face of the planet, period. I'm a homeschooling, reptile loving, softball player who will randomly quote the latest thing that made me laugh and will one day live high above the Costa Rican rainforest in a treehouse I built myself. I love Facebook, Twitter, Youtube, all the social media stuff. Probably a little too much...anyway, that's about it, so...yeah. :)

P.S. I'm also a crazy Rays fan :)

Welcome! I know the reference! Woot! I only got part way through Book 1 of The Lost series before life got too busy. :P I'll finish the series some day.

Ooo! Treehouses are fun! My uncle and aunt went to one for their honeymoon!

Good to have you here!

Welcome, Sylvie! It's good to have you here. :D Would you like some punch? *five glittery penguins slide in, carefully balancing a punch bowl and cups*

*grins* We have a tree house and tire swing, but we don't live in the jungle... Although it's crazy enough around our house. ;) You'll find there are quite a few homeschoolers on here, and some others. :D

Oh yes, I'm open to be asked any questions as well. :D Feel free!

Welcome, Silvi!!! I don’t know the reference, but I love the name.

So, do you write in a similar style as Dekker? (loved Black, Red, White, and Blink)

You know, you should post in our homeschool thread. :D *goes to call on Link Elf Lizzie *

I hope you enjoy it around here. There is lots to read. :D *tossed glitter *

Greetings and welcome, Silvie! Beautiful name, by the by {reference or no reference - I haven't read Dekker's books}. You've already been amply welcomed by our efficient welcoming personnel, of course, but let me extend a hand in greeting. *extends hand, then dumps a bucket of blue glitter on Sil when she's not looking* Yes! now you've been officially pranked and nicknamed and greeted and {I certainly hope by this time} thoroughly welcomed!

*cough, cough* The name is Dawn, Even, Estar, Evenstar, Star, or any other conglomeration of those names, by the way! And my pen name is Sienna {as you can see in my blog :D } So you have your pick of what to call me :rofl:

Oh, and would you like some more refreshments? *brushes glitter off Sil and serves her hot plate full of apple pie and ice cream*

*a sudden mysterious voice pops out of the hazy glitterful air* Write fantasy!! *mysterious voice pops back out*

Do you think you could be our Ted Dekker authority? I want to learn more about his books.

Oh, don't say that. There are always possibilities with your stories and ideas, you never know where they may take you.

I just had an image of a gigantic aquarium filled with the dark folds of a great Sea Serpent's body.

I hope this is not the case?

Aeleknight's right - never say never on fantasy, because we'll do our best to change your mind! :twisted: Okay, Aeleknight said it much more nicely than I did. :roll:

@Aele: I didn't say I wouldn't ever write fantasy - I'd like to give it a shot at some point, I'm just running a little low on ideas lately :(
@Tsharaf: Hahaha no not exactly...it's just a corn snake, nothing real exotic. She's very docile although not always well behaved ;)
@Philly: I've just never really tried it before, that's all, not that I wouldn't. I just haven't :)

If by youknowwho you mean JB, no, thank goodness. A while back we were laughing at all our old stories and I showed her two mysteries that I thought were good when I wrote them but were horrendously cheesy. I'm writing a sequel for her :D

Of course if it is intentionally made to be cheese. Another factor is what type of cheese-Provolone, Bleu, Colby Jack, Swiss, Muenster, Cheese-wiz (Although it really does not count as cheese).

That's where we got ours! The Cheese Factory in Kalona! My cousins used to live there and we went to visit them. It was really cool, since it's such a tiny town and there are so many Amish people nearby. We went to the grocery store and there was a horse and buggy in the parking lot :P
