I would love for HW to have a bookstore at some point; however at the moment there is no set date for that.

I definitely think it would be a great addition at some point in the future though!
It does sound like a very intriguing idea. I look forward to seeing how it works out!

What have you been up to in the two years away? How has your writing been going, and do you have any specific writing goals at present?
A lot has happened in the past two years. My writing has been going sporadically, at best. *winces* I am hoping that being back here among all of you wonderful folks will help motivate me to start writing regularly again. I do have some current goals in mind. I intend to complete the first draft of a novel I've had in mind for a while by the end of this year. It is a very rough draft so far, but I have to start somewhere or I fear I will never start at all.

Welcome back! I've been here since September 4th of 2012 (gee whillikers, has it really been that long?

), but I don't seem to remember you. It's nice to see someone returning to the forums after a long absence, though!
It's nice to meet you. I'm Dreamer Donna. But I used to be Renna, then Alianna, then Adrienne, then Annwyl, then The Homesick Dreamer... basically, I change my names a lot. You can call me whatever you wish; I love nicknames.
I hope your life has been going well during your absence; did you accomplish anything super special? Publish a book, perhaps? And if so, maybe let me know what it's called so I can read it?
I think I left in August of 2012 (it really
has been that long

), so I don't think I've ever had the pleasure of speaking to you before. It is very nice to meet you! I shall have to invent a nickname for you. I like "Ren" so far. Is that okay?
My life has been very hectic since I left. Unfortunately, nothing super special was accomplished during that time period. The most "writerly" accomplishment I can recall was being selected for publication in my college's literary magazine. Other than that, not a lot has happened as far as my writing goes. Things have been on hold for a while now. I'm just starting to pick everything up, dust it off, and put it back together. Hopefully, I shall have a novel out there before too long. Then I will most certainly let you know the title, without hesitation.
