Hello.

I’m just an aspiring author looking to meet new and interesting people. I’ve dabbled in fan fiction before for almost ten years, but I’ve never actually tried to get anything published. I’ve written a few drafts for children’s books and the like, but nothing I’ve really committed to. Hopefully exploring around here will give me some ideas and more inspiration to continue.

Most of us "dabble" when we start because we don't have a clear goal in mind. Not to worry. The "bug" will bite and the goal will appear. Then the work begins. Welcome.

Welcome, I am also new (ish) to this group and I've already found it a great deal of help. I too dabbled in fanfiction, mainly Star Trek and Harry Potter.
I look forward to seeing your posts.
