Introductions aren't exactly my forte but I decided to attempt this because I just like introducing myself.
- I'm a 13 year old student diagnosed with Asperger's who joined this site only yesterday.

- Next to my family, I love music, reading and writing. I play the oboe, piano, and I sing. I usually have at least 4 unfinished books stacked on my nightstand. :oops:. Also, I have a Wattpad account dedicated to writing. Username: TheSkippingStone. (How original of me. XD)

- I look forward to being an active member on this site. :D

I am always rotating through four to six books myself!

Welcome.

Am I being spied on and/or are you also in Utah? It has been raining for three days now. :-)

Why are you embarrassed that it rained? LOL

I wish I had such powers--if I did, I would create a moderate rainstorm in California, only occurring between 2 and 5 AM, for approximately two weeks.

A fellow multiple-book-reader! :) I'm currently working on about ten at the same time.

Hi TheSkippingStone! Welcome to Wrong Planet! Check out the many interesting and helpful forums here. I believe there is at least one for art and literature. I am a fellow bookworm, and also sometimes have more than one book going at a time. I did this more when I was younger, though. Now I mostly have one book going, while also keeping up with articles at various favorite websites. I like many genres. Sci-Fi, mysteries, animal stories--both true and fiction, funny criminal anecdotes, other humerous stories and anecdotes, historical fiction, adventure stories, history, some biographies, some westerns and sometimes war stories, and to a lesser extent--regular fiction and politics. My varied reading tastes are a lot like what you would find in a public library.

You will find WP an interesting site. I do, but don't have the time to log on here as much as I'd like. :D

Yay! I always love finding fellow bookworms. So what is your favorite book(s) (in general)? What are your favorite fantasy genre book(s)? I personally love dystopian novels, but usually read those in winter. During the summer it is mostly mystery/crime novel books that I read. Right now I have about 10 different zen books that I just ordered. I'm trying to develop inner calm.. :D
