Hey there! I'm new here and I guess the standard protocol around here is an introductory post; so here is mine!
I am fifteen years old and I am male, I tend to read a lot of fantasy and science fiction books - YA stuff like the inheritance cycle or classics like 'Do androids dream of electric sheep?'. I enjoy reading character-centred books that focus mostly on the relationships between the characters in a series, though a decent over-arching plot is a plus too, for example in books such as The Neuromancer trilogy.
I have a few hobbies, ranging from video games to Dungeons and Dragons - during which I usually play as the DM, or storyteller - as well as reading, of course.
I only recently started writing as a hobby, having been inspired by reading all this great literature I wanted to take a shot at producing my own work, which inevitably led me to try look for a writers' forum and so I ended up here.

Welcome. I'm sure you'll be glad you found this place. I would have given almost anything for a place like AW at fifteen.
