Introduction
I'm sitting on an electrical engineering degree right now. But I'm always trying to meet interesting people.
What sort of stories do you write? And if you have anything published, tell us about it (even if it's not SF.) We love to hear about all your successes.
I like writing sci-fi and fantasy. My short stories tend to be experimental.
What brings you to the SF Writers Meetup? Is there anything that you hope the group will do for you?
I want to meet other writers, share works, and totally chill out.
Additional Information
"I love to paint and make happy computer melodies. I also make personal software for my writing. I think cooking is really fun. I'm a non-tolkien hobbit."

Authors who don't care for reading?
"I've written stock fantasy before. It was set in a castle. There was a humble hand maid who learns she can control nature. It had elves in it, and sword fighting, and it was truly awful...."

how many words do you write in a day and what is the standard.
"Dana, you have a very interesting approach. It sounds like you've successfully de-linearized the writing process. Lately, I've been permitting my sentences and paragraphs to be written out of order, and it's been liberating...."

"I forget where I heard this, but there's a creative writing teacher who would make the students read their work out loud in monotone, to ensure the writing stood out on its own. That could be a good pre-readings exercise...."
