    Hi, I'm New

    Hey everyone, I've been looking for yet another online community to kill time with and since I enjoy reading and writing, this place looks like just the ticket.

    I've been making up stories since I could talk, but I actually do very little writing. I can have trouble putting my thoughts into words sometimes, unless I'm writing an essay or something.

    Hopefully being a member here will help me to write more. I think I can tell a story pretty well, I just have issues with things like dialogue.

    Thanks for reading,

    Razor

    Hi Razor. Being with fellow writers and interacting with them will definitely improve your writing. Welcome to WF!

    I'll be surprised if you haven't improved dramatically in a few months' time. My punctuation was pretty shaky when I first joined up, and simply being around people who used it correctly annihilated my bad habits relatively quickly. I'm still ironing them out but . . . well, it's a lot better. I don't think you'll have many problems learning how to transpose your thoughts onto paper more easily.

    A lot of people seem to have trouble with dialogue, but I'm sure you'll master it eventually. Anyway, I look forward to seeing your stuff.

    Good luck and welcome!
