Good morning everyone!

I’m new here, so I would like to take the opportunity to introduce myself.

Writing is one of my passions.
When I’m writing it’s like living in my own imaginary world where everything is possible.
But, I’m still a beginner, so I have a lot to learn.

Genres I like are: fantasy, horror, and detectives/mystery.
Besides writing, I also like drawing, painting, photography, model building, and gaming.

English is not my native language, Dutch is.
Dutch is also the language I write in, but maybe I try some short stories in English.

I hope to have lots of fun with everyone here, and be able to learn something new.
If you have any questions about me, be free to ask. :)

Welcome to AW dragonis. That’s really interesting to hear that you are Dutch but would like to write in English. That is a challenge but I’m sure you are up for it. You are your own worst critic. Remember that, and you can do whatever you want. Here you’ll get tons of help, all you need to do is speak up. I Wish you well and good luck in your journey.

Hi Dragonis,

We’re on the same boat: my native language is not English either. Welcome to AW and good luck with your writing.

Best,
Noel

Hi Dragonis,

It is neat that you have found and joined this community because if you are brave enough to jump right in, you'll be able to tackle writing in another language.
Good luck and feel free to ask whatever you want to know!
