Hiya Terry and welcome. Pardon the mess right now, but we have just opened!

Hi, I'm Kathryn! Goodreads friend of Janie's! YAY for Bookworm Buddies!

Hi Terri, welcome to the group!

As for the intro, a little about myself. I've been in the Air Force for 13 years now. I try to go home every year to Buffalo and keep in touch with family. I've been assigned to a base in New Mexico for 6 years now. My favorite hobby is hiking in the mountains with my dog. I know I know, reading isn't my favorite hobby and I hope that doesn'n t upset anyone too much! I do love reading though, and I enjoy this site because I've always been the quiet type and this medium affords me the opportunity to express myself and meet friendly people that I find difficult at times in person.

Hey Kathryn do you know how to make new discussions, besides "General"? I am so new this I am stuck on this.

I just created one for Stephen King. I just went to "New" up at the top to create it, and it asked what folder I wanted to create it in.

Oh thank you thank you, I think that will be the only other discussion we will need.

Hi everybody! I'm happy to be an early member of this group :) I'm a 23 years old software engineer from Macedonia. I've always enjoyed reading and my favorite genres are horror, fantasy and sci-fi.

I justsent 78 invites:D I'm sure most will ignore, but some will join:D

Woot! Thanks for the invite Tim. I am pleased to be included. I am an avid reader and will read anything, but I prefer horror, mystery, sci-fi, and fantasy. Some of my favorite authors are King, Koontz, Patterson, Jacobson, Harris, Rowling, and Pogue.

I am an introvert and don't like to be around people much, but I do well with online groups. I have found a lot of introverts are generally avid readers, and are people I get along with very well. LOL

Thanks for the invite Janie!
I'm glad to be here. My favorite kinds of books are horror, mystery, contemporary, historical fiction and suspense. Pretty much anything that isn't fluffy. I don't like fluffy books. lol

Hiya Christine and welcome to the group! Nice to have you here!

Hi all... I'm Becky. Victor invited me to join, and after seeing all the Stephen King and other horror options, I thought this group may just be a good fit for me. ;)

I read a little of everything, but I love horror, and Stephen King is my favorite.

Unfortunately though, I'm not re-reading anything this year, so all of the King buddy reads, and the zombie pack, are all no-gos for me. BUT, if you all don't mind, I'll still discuss them. :)

Hi and Welcome Becky! Nice to have you here! No problem at all feel free to discuss. If there are any buddy reads you would like to do feel free to post them in the buddy read section. There are guideline posted as well to make it easier.

Yup, I've read them, thanks, Janie. :)
