I'm a writer and I'm used to forum boards like these so I'll find my way around pretty quickly. I've read the Newbie Guide so I got the basics of this specific site down. When I reach 50 posts I'll showcase a bit of something I've been trying to work on for years. If anyone has any questions about me feel free to ask though I can't promise to answer some personal questions.

Here's to writing. *clinks glass*
