    Hello :)

    Hi everyone. I have just joined this website. I am 27 years old and have always been interested in writing. I used to write poetry as a child. My ambition and dream is to write a story and have it published, as I'm sure is the dream of many others. I am interested in writing horror as I love to read it. I am also interested in writing for children, especially young children. I am a teacher which does inspire me.

    I'm pleased to be hear and look forward to being able to post in the writing forums and gaining your feedback on my writing. :0)

    Welcome to the forums, Tiger Lily. Have fun, and enjoy sharing your writing on here. It's a great place for reciprocal feedback.
    The sand of the desert is sodden red, -
    Red with the wreck of a square that broke; -
    The Gatling's jammed and the colonel dead,
    And the regiment blind with dust and smoke.
    The river of death has brimmed his banks,
    And England's far, and Honour a name,
    But the voice of schoolboy rallies the ranks,
    "Play up! play up! and play the game!"

    Vitai Lampada (Sir Henry Newbolt, 1897)

    Hi there. Welcome to WF.
    Hope you enjoy your time here.
