Hello everyone, and welcome to the Snipette Space! We hope to make this a central place for Snipette readers, authors, and editors to hang out and connect. You could also use this to get help about our Member Portal, or keep up with the latest happenings and announcements at Snipette.

Before we begin, here are three things to keep in mind:

This forum is linked to the Member Portal. If you are a paying member, you can log in as yourusername@members.snipettemag.com. If not, just use your normal email address 📧
To make things easier, our forum is passwordless. We'll email you a one-time "magic link" every time you want to sign in-- which makes for one less password to remember 🔑
Don't forget to sign up for email notifications. Just click on your username in the top-right corner, go to "settings", and check all the options you want. We'd recommend keeping the last three options on, so you don't miss out on anything interesting 🔔

And now, what better way to start than by getting to know each other? That's what this thread is all about. We're going to start with ours to set the ball rolling--and you're most welcome to join in 🙂

manasa

Hi everyone,
This is Manasa, editor at Snipette. You probably know me already, but I thought I'd share a little bit more about myself.

I have just completed (!) my A-levels and my subjects are Psychology, Sociology, Maths, English, and Physics. (Yes, I've been told its an odd combination.) I used to attend a school which has a semi-residential program, meaning that I stayed in school from Monday to Friday.

I live in Bangalore, India with my parents, although I hope to go abroad for college before long.

I enjoy music - both listening and singing - and have been learning the guitar for four years now. I also love reading, writing, and making things with my hands. I am a complete book and movie nerd. I bake religiously every week, much to my schoolmates' delight, and love feeding people. I dislike horror movies and messy spaces.

I hope that gave you a better sense of who I am. I'm looking forward to getting to know all of you a great deal, too!

badri

Hi all,
I'm Badri, the other editor. I've been homeschooled for most of my life, and finished my A-Levels from the same school as @manasa, albeit a bit earlier.

I live in Tamilnadu, India, with my parents and brother, in what started as a farm but has become more like a "mini forest". I'm currently freelancing as a software developer, at least when I'm not at home battling slow Internet signals.

I read a lot; both books and articles. My go-to topics are environment, sci-fi and psychology, but it could well be anything else. I do quite a bit of writing, both in English and in computer code. I'm something of a perfectionist, but often compromise because I like to stay ahead of my deadlines. I like making things with my hands, and I love writing letters (or, better still, receiving replies!). I enjoy walking out and exploring the countryside with friends.

I'm excited to start this new chapter in the story of Snipette and look forward to hanging out with y'all on this space 🙂

nia

Hi all,
My name is Nia. I'm 16, and I study in the same school as the others, where I've taken Psychology, Sociology, Chemistry, Math, and Literature. (which I like to think of as balanced, but might in fact be overworking me)

I enjoy reading- mostly fiction or fantasy- and pretty much anything which I can sit in one place and do. I write a little poetry, but I don't have enough time to do it consistently. I really enjoy working with my hands, and over the last few years, I've taken up brush calligraphy, sewing, crochet, and knitting.

Because I enjoy learning about people- and have a deep love for words- I've found it really exciting to be an editor here, though I've been here less than a year.

akil

Hi everyone,
I’m Akil, associate editor at Snipette. I haven’t been on this team for too long, so I thought I’d share some things about myself.

I’m 16, and doing my A-levels in the same school as Nia and Manasa. I’ve taken psychology, sociology, math, chemistry, and literature. I too live in Bangalore, India, though my home town is closer to where Badri lives, in Tamil Nadu.

I love to read and write, mainly fiction, but I enjoy exploring various other genres including non-fiction! Some of my favourite things to do are drawing, knitting, and listening to music - which encompasses a wide range of period and genre. However, I do treasure being outdoors; either playing sports, walking, running, sketching or just sitting quietly and listening to the sounds that surround me (so as you can guess, this year has been rather difficult)!

For the short time I’ve been on this team, it’s been very exciting. Looking forward to interacting with and getting to know all of you!
