Hello all, been writing in my own little world for a while now - time to break out of the egg, and emerge into the real world.

Looking forward to becoming a worthwhile participant amongst some fellow writers.

Cheers!

G'day, mate! That's the limit of my Australian English.

Oh, wait -- I have one more: "You call that a knife?? This is a knife!"

Welcome, in spite of my bad jokes.

Never been to Australia but loved Man from Snowy River and being an equestrian, near the top of my list of crazy-things-I-want-to-do-before-I-die is run a horse down one of those mountains!

Yeah, that's a great scene - I hope that wish is toward the end of your list! lol :D

Greetings and salutations Rooke.
I have been writing on the walls of my egg for about 5 years now. Since I am running out of room I thought I would poke my head out also. I found the world outside a delightful paradox. It is both frightening (publishers, agents and critics) and wonderful (fellow writers especially here). It is both the coldest place I have been and the warmest. This is definitely a good first step into the “real world”.

Another Sydneysider here (well, a transplanted Yank, but they tend to tolerate me) - welcome!

Welcome to AW. Hope you enjoy your stay with us.
How do you like your popcorn?

If you go to the bottom of the page to the 'forum jump' you can scroll down and find all the areas of this place. After you post 50 posts you can use the SYW areas to get help there. The password for some of the areas is…..vista. A word to the wise, it would be a good idea to participate first in helping others before you think about posting your own work. After you have been around here for awhile, then post something of your own for help. Good luck.
