My name is Richard and I'm new, so I thought I'd say hi. I'm an aspiring writer hoping to find help here, mostly in the form of people who are willing to look at my short stories and tell me either that they're awesome or that they need work before I try to submit to those picky editors and publishers out there. My goal right now is to make a career in writing pay my bills so I don't have to work at a job where I can feel my soul dying inside me.

In return for peoples' help in getting my work published, I'll be more than happy to return the favor in any way I can.

Anyways, I'm happy to be a part of this community, and hope that I make lots of new and lasting friends here ^_^

Welcome from the frozen north. Remember the only real rule - "Writers write." Keep at it until your fingers bleed and then buy bandaids.
