Hello, I'm Tricia.
I joined Protagonize on my birthday a couple of years ago after lurking for two weeks. A really nice friend joined two days before I did, and started posting like mad, and that was my spur. It was the best birthday present I ever gave myself. And I'm very grateful to my friend. If he hadn't joined I'd probably still be lurking now, rather than writing.
I've only been writing properly since that day and I've surprised myself and everyone who knows me. I love this site and all the gifted people here.
My two gifted and gorgeous children are also Protagonize authors. Paddy is Padz009 - he's fifteen and very talented. He's written lots of things,but only posted twice here. Lucy is thirteen and posts as MissLulu, but hasn't for a while.
I believe that talent needs to be nurtured, and I always read profiles before I rate stories. Sometimes it helps to know a little about the author before you rate. If someone writes like a twelve year old, maybe it's because they are.
My only solo project is:
Waking Up With Henry
My other favourite stories (of mine) are:
My first novel, 'Paddytum', will be published in the autumn, by Hirst Books, followed by 'No More Miss Nice Guy', early in 2011. 'Paddytum' was started as a collaborative story on Protagonize in September 2008, but soon became one of my solo projects. 'No More Miss Nice Guy' was written during NaNoWriMo 2008 and first few chapters were posted here until recently.
My favourite stories started by other Protagonize authors are:
I love this site (did I say that already?) and I can never stay away for long.
