Since I hate writing about myself I'll leave you this instead.
For me ,the naked and the nude (By lexicographers construed As synonyms that should express The same deficiency of dress Or shelter) stand as wide apart As love from lies, or truth from art.
Lovers without reproach will gaze On bodies naked and ablaze.
The Hippocratic eye will see
In nakedness shines the goddess when
She mounts her lion among men
The nude are bold, the nude are sly
To hold each treasonable eye While dripping by a showman’s trick Their dishabille in rhetoric,
They gain a mock –religious grin Of scorn at those of naked skin,
The naked, therefore, who compete Against the nude may know defeat
Yet when they both together tread
The briary pasture of the dead,
By gorgons with long whips pursed,
How naked go the sometimes nude.
Robert Graves

IrishYndina on April 24Hello jauhar, and welcome to the StoryWrite website!
My username is IrishYndina but most people just call me Irish.
Our site is a community of people who all share a common desire to write and hopefully become a published author sometime in the future. It is also a place to sharpen your writing skills and display your creativity while being in a fun environment!
You will notice a gold medal by your name. This is a free trial membership. This shows you what options you have if you were a paid member of Storywrite.com. After approximately three days the gold membership expires, so take the opportunity to see all that our site offers to you!
We have a new members group on the site. This group was set-up to show you how to post your work onto the site and to give you an understanding of how the reading/reviewing of your work actually happens. If you have not already done so, I would suggest you take a peek into this group and see how this process works. http://storywrite.com/group/info/New+members+group
Along with a new members group, we have a New Members Contest that is held every month. Come and check it out. The contest is open to any new member. http://storywrite.com/contest/4374
