    Introductions are always so scary! And Hello to you all

    Hello everyone my name is Sonia. I am a 22 year old college student who dreams of becoming a writer someday too bad my grammar is so terrible. I have been looking around for a writers forum to help improve my grammar and this about the only forum that caught my attention. I hope to learn many new things from everyone here!Oh, I almost forgot to mention I like to write fiction because for me reality is kinda boring!

    Welcome to the forums, Sonia.

    Hello there Sonia, and welcome to the forums. You can also pick up a lot about grammar just by reading. The more you read, the better insight you'll get into the way words and phrases work. Good luck!

    Hey, Sonia. My grammar was probably worse than yours. (they're their and there were all the same thing!) lol, you'll do fine. What really helps is also critiquing. I've found myself thinking "oh hey, that's a neat way to phrase something" while reading through the stuff here.
    I'm a turkey!

    I'm also a Mentor. What does that mean? It means if you have any questions, all you have to do is ask me. My job is to help you feel comfortable here. (The mods' job is to take away cookies as punishment. Twisted fiends.)

    Hello hello, Sonia! The other members that beat me to posting suggested some good resources, but remember, you can always ask on the Grammar, Punctuation and Spelling board at Grammar, Punctuation and Spelling if you need help and can't find it anywhere else. (Or if you're too lazy to look for a long time. That's a good reason too.)
    Italy!
