Hi everyone! I figured I should write up an introduction for those of you who don’t know me. I’m Leopard, real name Lauren. You can call me Leopard, Leopy, Lauren or anything really. I’m generally pretty relaxed about these things. This site and I go way back. I was actually the very first member back in 2010 and I just never left. My first character Leopardeyes is where I got my username from. I took over the site after the webs version closed down and decided to move to proboards for more flexibility with the forums. I’ve been an admin/mod on Ivyclan on and off for a few years so I'm pretty familiar with how things work at this point. I started roleplaying when I was still in primary school and warriors has always been one of my favourite things to roleplay. I haven’t roleplayed much outside of this site for a few years. I'm most comfortable writing in the range 100-200 words. In real life I’m in the final year of my bachelor degree. On the side I love to read and am currently working my butt off to get the first draft of my novel finished. I’m really into Harry Potter and Game of Thrones at the moment. I'm a huge cats genetics nerd so if anyone wants to talk cat genetics I'm all ears. If anyone wants to plot or just chat feel free to shoot me a message. That’s about all I can think of, can’t wait to meet you all

Hello! My real name is Lauren too (Who would have thought?) It's very nice to meet you!
Also, what's your novel about? I may be interested... ^-^

Oh that's really crazy, but it does happen pretty often It's kind of complicated u.u Long story short it takes place in this doomed floating city in a world where everyone's scared of the sun and these giant monsters terrorize the city. The government are obsessed with creating a perfect world and do some pretty brutal things to keep it that way. There are three main storylines. One follows a girl who struggles to get back to the world after her best friend goes missing and how she tries to save her friend. Then you have a man who gets involved with a resistance group by accident and ends up struggling to stay alive.

Thank-you I'm only half way through the first draft so it's going to be awhile before I have anything readable but I'll keep you in mind when I do u.u

Ooh, sounds like a book I'd like to read. :3 How long have you been working on it? I've had an idea for a book in the works since last November, been trying to get all the rules of the world down pat, now I need to focus on getting the plot more sustainable, so I don't end up writing myself into a corner.

Well I've been bouncing the idea around since I was 15 or something but I only started working on writing it last year. I wish I'd spent more time on the plot beforehand. I've been in a few corners and have to keep doing things like removing characters, pulling characters out of thin air and turning the plot on it's head to get out of them.

I've recently starting my own novel, actually. It was originally a school project but my friends and family have pestered me to finish writing it. The plot's kind of everywhere right now, though... u.u
