Hi everybody!

My (pen) name is Merenwen Luinnen. I've been using that name for quite a while now; it's just so strange to see a story with your real name on the cover...it's just...odd. I am an English student from the Netherlands and have picked up writing English stories mainly to practice my vocabulary, syntax and grammar. (So if you come accross a construction, word etc. that is not understandable, please don't be too hard on me.)

It's quite strange to write stories in English, when you are used to writing them in Dutch. It's quite difficult to express myself at certain times (becuase if happens all to often that I'm looking for that one word but can't remember it and then I end up looking it up in a dictionary...*sigh*).

Please don't be too hard on my writing. I know it's not very good yet. I'm still figuring out how to write a proper English story; but luckily I learn with every sentence that I put to paper.
