An old curmudgeon returns

I was a regular at this place from September of 03 until January of 06. I imagine that the crowd here has changed a lot since I left.

i write novels, poetry, and such and currently run a publishing company that will have its official launch on August 19th of this year.

Most of my material is out in ebook from Renebooks (Renaissance Ebooks).

I have the usual run of suspicious characters in them, vampires and wolfweres.

I'm also a level 40 Arch curmudgeon.

What company are you gong to launch, if I may ask?

Glad to have you back.

Daverana Enterprises. Our site is still getting weekly upgrades as the team meetings produce discussion for improvements. We are located at Daverana.com

Our books will not be revealed until the launch date, but we have Old Monster providing entertainment and she will presently be joined by Hieronymous who is a bit hoity toity.

In addition to selling books, we intend to provide various forms of entertainment.

It looks like you're going to have quite a load on your hands. Good luck.

For some reason I can't get my signature to show properly. Even the profile functions have changed a bit.

Thanks, Splintered. It is a lot to do. I hired another editor yesterday.

Welcome back, legacy member.

Thank you, HumanePain.

A lot of changed, but a lot has remained the same here. When I first started coming here in 03, I was recovering from a fifteen year case of writer's block that had destroyed my ability to write fiction. This was the first messageboard I had ever posted to. I had had the internet for years, but never looked into the social side of it until then.

A lot of people who were here then helped me get back to writing again. I now have 20 novels out in ebook, but Gothic.net played a key role in getting me to function again creatively. So I have a huge fondness for this place.
