Hello everyone! Umm... I'm not very good with introductions, but I suppose I'll give it a shot. I'm Carl, though the majority of the time I use my pen-name, Vince (my pen-name is an anagram of my whole name, which I won't be posting for my safety o.o).
Writing background: I've been writing seriously since the seventh grade, and I am currently enrolled at Florida International University as an English Major specializing in Creative Writing, and I'm about to enter my third year. I've been in quite a few workshops for fiction, non-fiction (including memoir) and poetry, so I am always ready and willing to give feedback and criticism if the writer asks for it.
Umm... about myself... I'm quiet and sane when you first meet me, but once you get to know me, I open up quite a bit. I prefer writing poetry, but I have experience writing fiction and non-fiction as well. I don't RP and I don't write fanfiction. I like mostly techno or electronica (Yay Daft Punk) and I really enjoy watching movies (real movies... please don't mention mock-ups like Meet the Spartans, Disaster Movie, etc.).
Umm... and yeah. I hope to meet and make friends with the lot of you, and to share my writing in the process.
Good day~

Carl here is the biggest literary bad *ss I've ever had the pleasure of meeting and/or playing literary nerd with until four in the morning. Kickin' character development immersed in expertly constructed real-fiction scenarios give his stories the realism that resonates so profoundly in the emotions of his readers.
Plus, you'll never find a more informed critic if you try a hundred times.
Even further, he's a good ear who carries on an awesome conversation, an all around good guy, so you all treat him kindly, ya' hear?
Oh wait, that's right, I'm the mean one. FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF
Welcome aboard Carl, we'll hang when I'm not trying to strangle my roomie.

Oh please, you speak way too highly of me.
Don't take Ark too seriously. I'm not nearly as good as he says I am. And no, I'm not just being modest, either.
Though, I have to admit, the whole "literary nerd until four in the morning" part sounds about right, mind you I left at about three-thirty or so.
And yes...
FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF is well used in that situation.

Don't worry, we never take Ark too seriously. (Kidding, kidding.) But he's hardly exaggerating, I'm sure. Welcome aboard!
And Disaster Movie, I saw a commercial for that this morning...looks really intelligent..

Well if Ark is giving praise (don't happen very often) then you must be amazing. He only gives credit when it truly is due.
Nice to meet you. I'm M, and whatever Ark has told you, don't believe it. Oh wait, yeah, you probably can.
Welcome on board, and if you need anything feel free to ask.
