New writer from Chicago

Hello All.

I'm brand new to the forum. I'm a teacher and aspiring writer from Chicago and I've just started my first novel. I'm looking forward to hearing from you guys on the topic.

Thanks, Chris for trying to get me activated over the holidays while your web guy was out. Today I was finally able to sign up!

Welcome Skribbler!
I hope you enjoy it here.
since I haven't seen Sgt. Steve do this for a while, so I hope he doesn't mind if I weeze his gig.

You should start by checking out the rules and giving them all the respect they deserve. Also look for Who's Who, and respond appropriately. You might also want to take the Getting To Know You Survey, check out the silliness in The Origins of your User Name and Another Questionnaire. If you'd like to tell us more about yourself those are great items to get you going. And if you don't, well, We Have Our Ways.
Get naked, stack the books, sit back and Joe or Goudron will be along shortly for the strip search.

Most importantly, what kind of pie did you bring?

Welcome! Looks like the rules are covered- I'll just say have fun with the lunacy here. I think Joe will be asking you an important question shortly.

Now I believe pie was mentioned, so I'll go brew us all a fresh pot of cocoa while we're waiting...

hi there.

i hope you brought some yummy pie.

Pie?!
Welcome, Skribbbler.
Have a seat, enjoy, and slice that pie bigger, there's only five of us.

On that pie thingy, 'Chicago Style" has a nice ring to it.

Welcome, Skribbbler! I usually request a Key Lime Pie as a bribe for leniency during your Ann Coulter body cavity search. From you, I will require a jumbo sausage and mushroom from one of those places there in the Loop that cuts a pizza into little squares. Mo' greezy, mo betta.
