What do you look like? If you could describe yourself in one word what would it be? what kind of clothes do you wear?

Well...I'm really tall (5'10") and have curly/wavy brown hair that stops just below my shoulders. I have blue eyes, but they do look gray sometimes. Um...for clothing I wear a lot of things...dresses, jeans, t-shirts, skirts, everything really.(Idk what else to say!) Personality wise I'm kinda shy :) but that's moi

I love these boots. I have a pair similar. :D

Nice. :) I pictured you having blond hair :)


I have light brown hair with blond natural highlights. My hair is really curly and gets stupid annoying ringlets. I recently got a hair cut (8 inch off) its growing out again though. it's now shoulder length (when curly). I have blue eyes that also sometimes look gray. There is a yellow/gold outlining around the pupil of my eyes. I have the slighesthint of freckles >:| Im 5'2" (im wanna be taller! :( ) I like wearing dresses, but also like being casual in jeans. I dont wear makeup. Im a girly girl and a tom boy at the same time. I like smiles :) I average weight and like excersising. That's pretty much it. oh! If i described myself in one word it'd prob be FUN! (you can disagree :P)

I have dark brown hair that turns light in the summer when i'm constaly out in the sun, and I have lighter brown and sometimes natural red highlights. (I'm told it looks dark alburn when wet, personlay i don't think so). It falls on my shoulders, and can be staight or wavy which depends on how it dried. My eyes are dark to medium carmel brown with hits of green around the edges. I am 5' 9" i'm considered tall. I hate dresses and skirts unless I am dressing for somthing really formal, in that case i do like dresses. I wear makeup on ocassion but not normally, i love my jeans tennis shoes and simple but nice fitted tees. Weekends, it depends what's going on and that dictaes what i wear. Normally it's one of my non-school jeans and a t-shirt. If i'm going out that depends, sometimes slacks and a nice shirt do just fine. I'm of average weight and love to swim and run. I rarly wear jewlery but I do when not at school. I don't care about being "popular" at school, love my friends and am proud to be in band. I can be a perfectonist, especially when it comes to school and band. I'm more of the quite type and don't really crave company, I HATE being lied to with a passion and am not one to fly off the handle. I work well under pressure and it takes ALOT to freak me out, scare me, make me nervous ect. Bugs, snakes, rodents don't scare me (such a dissapointment to the guys in elementary school). I have a stong stomach and blood doesn't bother me, i have no fear or anything really. I know I talk, alot. One word to describe me? Um, I have no clue.

Cool! Lol,Irene that long but so easily to visualize!!!

What about you Patrick? ;)

Thanks, and yes what about you?

ya. what bout yopu? lol

Look at the picture to your left. This is what I look like. LOL. I am not a girly girl. I wear jeans, tees, and sometimes sweats.

You sound like me:)

Lol! :D

I don't particularly like make-up, dresses, or heels. I only wear a dress unless i absloutly have to. I love my jeans, nice tees, and tennis shoes:)

I'm petite (ie 5'2", slim build), with light brown hair (dark blond streaks in the sun) and a few silver hairs popping up. (I achieve my 40th birthday end of the year and have 2 kids, so I figure I deserve a few silver hairs!). I laugh easily and a lot. I like wearing Asian clothes, although I live in Kenya and am from S Africa. I love running (I go to the gym at least 3 mornings a week) and dancing (not any particular style but just love to blast the music and move). I'm not sure any human being can really be captured by one word, but if I have to chose - Energetic!

i love to dance too! :D

My name is Paul Oliver Westmoreland (POW for short) and I love writing children’s novels.

Right now I’m 34, live in North London, and work for a digital advertising agency on Baker Street. I recently got married and enjoyed a blissful honeymoon in Malaysia – two relaxing weeks in paradise with a pile of books and the next Vincent Ward adventure to mull over.

My book, Cardsharp is an exciting, fast-paced adventure set in the art-smuggling underworld, and stars a daring expert called Vincent Ward.

I love art, movies, loud music and never have enough time to write.
POW

I liked cardsharp! That's really cool, i've always wanted to visit Malaysia

Cheers, can you like it on Facebook or write a short review for me?

Some parts of Malaysia are stunning. We stayed in a paradise hotel and everyone was really nice.

Hi Everyone. I'm Tim, and I'm probably decades older than most of you.

I live with my wife, Vivian, whom I love dearly. Also, there is our pet writing team: Lily, naughty queen cat, Jacques, mellow alpha cat, Russell, 18 lb kitten, Daisy, 4 lb stray we took in, Teddy, the eternal puppy,and Bertilak, a Carolina box turtle.

We live next to the ocean in a little town about five miles south of San Francisco.

I used to be a Professor of Children's Literature and love to read and write children's/YA books.

Hi, guys. I'm an author and belong to several groups on here. I live in Orlando Florida and yes, I do work at Disney so I get in for free. I've begun writing with a target audience of older teens and young adults.

Is anyone else wolfed and vamped out yet?

I'm sarcastic most of the time, just a force of habit i guess.
I'm kind of shy at first, but can be quite the talkative type :), Teachers would say am samrt, shy and like to read during class, but my friends would say i'm out going and on the wild side.
Oh and I have bright green eyes :-)

Hi, I'm sonya. I have medium length brown hair, and blue eyes. I'm 17, and a senior in high school. I love to read more than anything. :D

I'm called Lea. My hair is dark brown with natural blond streaks, reaching more or less to my waist. I adore reading (I finished Charlotte's Web in kindergarten, and War & Peace in sixth grade.) I'm known as dogsrplayful on FanFiction, and love to write as well. I play softball (pitcher), and I adore hitting (two homers! :D) My clothes on weekends are sweats & and softball tournament t-shirt, and on weekdays, same shirts w/ skinny jeans. That's me! :D

Well, my name Is Courtney
Im tall and tanned, with wavy brown hair below the shoulders, i play basketball and am not fat or skinny (average) (:, I have big brown eyes with really long thick black lashes, I am smart in like English maths, etc, but can be a complete dumbass (: like i say things like "Whats a drumstick? OMFg your as red as a blueberry?! oh and grab an empty trolley and try to drag your feet and swing down an Aisle only to realise an empty trolley CANT hold your weight so you flip it in front of the registers and your mum and sis walk off embarrassed!" I am funny, i ran into a coffee table once when i was hyper and broke my toe, oh and well yeah i can't remember everything i do! but i love to read, i love sport, i love animals, i own a cat and she is sooooo like me (minus the part where she removed my sis's dogs eye ;) oh yeah, i LOVE to wear dresses, pumps, anything HAWT, and yeah i love the Vampire diaries, i get REALLY hyper, and i umm yeah, i kinda can't think of anything else (:
SO that is me(:

i live in WI. i have SUPER CURLY black hair. brown eyes. im short(5'2") well toned i guess. im athletic. at least thats what people tell me. im always the one laughing and my laugh is contagious. i love reading. if i could i would live in the library. i dont have a group of friends. im friends with many people in different groups. i like having a lot of friends. i was born 3.5 months early. im 16 years old. i graduate high school in 2013! when it comes to music im very diverse. i hate being in the middle of things. im always trying to be switzerland. my favorite school subjects are ENGLISH, SPANISH, and ART. i love learning about different cultures.(not history.) im on goodreads almost everyday.(thank god for android phones!)

I have really out of control red hair that comes to a little above my waist. I have green eyes that have a blue tint sometimes. I'm the person that when you tell a joke they crack up for like 5 minutes. Sadly, I suck at telling jokes. I'm also the smart dorky kid in the corner who people are always asking for advice on their work.xD I'm super quiet unless I have something to say. I am LDS(or Mormon for those of you who don't want to look up LDS)and proud of it. I'm part girly-girl and part tom-boy. Really good books give me something similar to an adrenaline rush. That's all I can think of now.

I'm super excited to be a part of this book club! Okay sorry, just wanted to say that :) I'm a teen who is 5'3 and will not grow taller ): but I have shoulder length, ordinary pin-straight-won't-curl-brown hair and brown eyes. I'm pretty laid back: yoga pants and a t-shirt is my kinda style! But I also do love to dress up on occasion. I'm a Christian who loves God and I love all my Jesus-loving friends :D I love to hang out with my friends and my closest friends will let me ramble on and on about my most current reads. I try to be funny but I don't think I am... either way I still try! I'm a reader, YA writer (but only for myself so far), and a learning blogger over at Magic is in Words who is excited to be here!

Hi Katie! Thanks for joining :)

I have at the moment, hair that comes right past my chin with red and blonde highlights in my natural jet-black hair. My hair is kind of always changing; last month it was all the way to my hip but I had an impulse to cut it, so yeah. I've got these big brown eyes that people call 'curious looking' and really long eyelashes. I'm kind of fair but tan up in the summer. I've got really dark eyebrows & full-ish rosey-ish lips which give me this whole Arabian look, which makes sense because I am part Arabian. I'm also 5'3 and hoping to grow to 5'5 :) I can't really describe myself in one word and neither can my friends 'cause I'm kinda all over the place. My dress style is honestly whatever I feel like. If I'm in the mood I'll wear jeans & converse, but some days I'll feel like wearing a dress, so I will. Like I said, all over the place.

I have shoulder length black hair and it's very unruly. I wear black, square rimmed glasses. I'. 5'4 1/2. I'm a shirt and jeans type of girl but occasionally I like to dress up too. I love art. I tend to ramble a lot.

I am 5'5" have blonde hair and blue eyes, that sometimes turn to grey. I have a great smile and am average. The way I dress would be casual/Chick. When I want to be comfy I'll put out the yoga pants and a t shirt, and when I'm going out somewhere fancy I'll pull out one of my dresses. It all depends on the occasion, I like to wear high heels as much as possible. In the summer I'm all about sandals.
My personality type would be talkative, caring, honest, and outgoing.
Would love to have some friends! If you have some books you could recommend that would be great!

I am 5'2" and I have dirty blonde hair that is shoulder length and full head layer cut so looks kinda punkish. I have brown eyes that change to hazel sometimes. I just wear jeans and t-shirt and sweaters. Total tom boy. Don't wear make-up or dresses. I'm talkative, caring, outgoing, and a bit of a push over. Would love to make new friends so feel free to friend me. And I love reading, and anime. I smile a lot but I do have an acne problem.

I'm about 5'4", 19, in college and have shortish green hair, at the mo. I've dyed it most colours but tend towards greens and blues :) My eyes are greeny/blue, picking sides depending on my hair. I wear pretty much whatever's clean, but recently have developed a bit of a penchant for dresses + tights, and I think I'd keel over without my hats and scarves :)
Personality wise I'm loud, happy, a bit of a perfectionist, indecisive and overall rather nuts.I try to be kind and friendly and polite (which also happens to be one of my most overused words at the mo for some reason?) to everyone.
I love life and everything about it, especially my family + friends, music, art, books, ballet, Winter and nighttime :)

Let's see. I'm a seven foot tall ninja assassin who could be a stunt double for Ryan Reynolds, and I work undercover for the CIA...Okay, maybe not.

I was raised on a small chicken farm in Illinois (yeah, go ahead, I've heard all the chicken jokes). The word that best describes me is 'dependable,' and I prefer collared shirts over T-shirts.
