Welcome from a fellow writer!

On a side note - I certainly hope you are of a liberal mind. If not, I'd suggest avoiding some of the threads in the chit chat forum. It can get a bit heated in there.

We should put a disclaimer on the homepage. "Before you consider registering here at The Ledge, you should be aware..."

They sure do

Seriously though, I think anyone can jump in. They better, however be prepared and well read because this is a tough crowd They also better be prepared with better than a blanket statement like "George W. Bush is the best thing that ever happened to this country - he protects us" or "John Kerry would have been the best thing for this nation because he would better protect us" - that kind of blanket crap just won't fly. Around here, ya better get ready to discuss the facts, which sadly, rarely support anything W has ever done, unless effectively you are really rich, employed, white Christian who has private medical insurance and owns Halliburton stock BTW - I have the facts to back that up

On edit - welcome everyone!

I never really introduced myself either.. My name is John. Im 21 and I live in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Ive been a fan for a really long time. My mom only owned "Bella Donna" and always felt it was a masterpiece, but never realized that Stevie Nicks was the same person as the singer in Fleetwood Mac. So I grew up jamming to my Bella Donna LP from the age of 4 til THE DANCE came out on MTV. There was so much hype about it, so we decided to watch it. When we did, we fell into love with FM. And after we bought "Rumours" we realized it was the same girl. And so on from there. What can I say? We were never into music til we found Fleetwood Mac!

ok, ill shut up now.

And since everyone seems to be introducing themselves in this thread, may I say a nice "Howdy" to y'all. I've quite enjoyed the discussions here!

If you're a Sandy Denny fan on top of being a Stevie fan, I will love you forever. There are about three of us in the U.S., I think; I had to order her new boxed set from Amazon U.K. because I am that much of a lunatic.

Is "Blow Away" Kate Bush? I have to confess to total Kate ignorance except "Wuthering Heights," which I know via Pat Benatar, and "Don't Give Up" with Peter Gabriel. I mean, I know some of her writing, but very little of her music.

I am indeed of a liberal mind, but I have to admit I have never been in the chit-chat forum, though I've been in pretty much all the others reading posts. I have to say, things get pretty passionate over here, too--part of what I admire about this place. Thanks for the tip, and for the welcome!

I mostly write short fiction but am currently attempting my first novel. I haven't had anything published yet but you can download and read three of my stories here.
If only I knew a cure for writer's block - then maybe the dozen or so half-completed stories would actually get done and my novel would have been finished years ago (I've been working on it about five years now).
I tend to start a story, get blocked, quit, start a new story, get blocked, look at the first story, still have no new ideas, then start a third story, get blocked again, look at the previous two, still have no new ideas, and start a fourth story. And so goes the vicious cycle. As such I've only completed a handful of works (in the ten years or so that I've been writing), and I only consider three of them (those posted in the link above) to be at all worthwhile.

I'd love to - but somehow I think I'd be entirely too distracted afterwards to be able to complete anything. It would be quite counter productive I think.
