Hello Everyone,

I've been writing in a bubble for three years. It's been okay for productivity, but lousy for connecting and networking with other writers. I'm naturally quite introverted and have never actually been a member of any forum ever. But it's getting lonely and suffocating in the bubble and I'm very keen to pop it and step - covered in glistening bubble residue - into this online community.

I'm keen to learn, to contribute, to critique and just to interact with people other than the ones I make up in my head and write about.

In terms of my writing; I've won places in a few short story comps and have a background in writing for theatre and live performance, but my main focus at the moment is a series of YA fantasy/sci-fi novels. I am currently fighting my way through the redrafting of the first one.

Looking forward to chatting with ya'll :)

Welcome Mr. YetiGoose! I am just a novice writer myself, and look forward to reading some of your writings as we share a genre of choice. I find the creative writing to be both gratifying and therapeutic.

Welcome to AW Mr YetiGoose.
Yeah, connecting with like minded people can certainly ease the solitude we endure. Good luck in your journey.
